NNTPGrab Description

Usenet binaries downloader tool NNTPGrab is an application that allows you to download binaries from Usenet servers. Here are some key features of "NNTPGrab": · Import of NZB files · Download from multiple servers using multiple threads · Configurable download priority and server priority · Possibility to run the GUI on a different computer than where the downloads are happening · Possibility to control the program using a webinterface · Support for NNTP-over-SSL · Automatic NZB import (directory monitor) · Integrated NZB search engine · Automatic PAR2 repair · Automatic unpack · Automatic shutdown after all downloads are completed · Support for bandwidth limiting · Support for plugins · Can be controlled using JSON-RPC · Support for downloading over proxy servers · Can be used on Linux, Windows and Mac OS X What's New in This Release: · Right now several plugins are already available. The yEnc decoder, PAR2 repair and automatic unpack functionality have been moved to individual plugins. Next to this, plugins have been added to collect debug logging and to automatically pause/resume the download queue when the network connection has been disconnected/resumed (Linux only for now). · Next to this a plugin has been added which allows the program to be controlled using JSON-RPC. This happens through an embedded webserver. Right now work is still going on to get a complete webinterface implemented so it's something to look forward to. · Next to the support for plugins several internal changes have been done in order to make the program more efficient and stable. · Downloading files from usenet servers is now done by 1 central thread (this used to be 1 thread per connection). Because of this change, download can be stopped instantly when the button 'Pause the schedular' is pressed. Changes in the configuration are now also applied instantly. In previous versions, the program could hang for a few seconds before configuration changes were applied. Another optimalisation has been done in the yEnc decoder. This has been fully rewritten so it can decode files much faster than before. · From now on it's also possible to download files from usenet servers using a proxy server and last but not least: Starting with NNTPGrab 0.6 Beta 1, it's also possible to apply bandwidth limiting.
