He, what happened? The subdirectories in /var/sabnzbd/Downloads/ are gone. Did you reboot, or disconnect the drive?

What is the output of

df -h

A user 'sabnzbd'? How did you do that? And why?

Anyway: does this work:

sudo chmod 777 /var/sabnzbd/Downloads/*
ls -al /var/sabnzbd/Downloads

That looks good. What is the output of:

sudo mount -t ntfs -o uid=sabnzbd,gid=sabnzbd,fmask=000,dmask=000 /dev/sda1 /var/sabnzbd/Downloads It mounts fine and the web interface shows 15GB available but if I try to manually load up an nzb the log file says it can't create folder /var/sabnzbd/Downloads/incomplete.

There are NAS-devices that can run SABnzbd, and there are (modern) TV's than can play content over a network from a NAS, fileserver or DLNA-server. So, yes it is possible. EDIT: so the easy answer is: some (modern) TVs have a media-player built in. EDTI 2: and there are (do it yourself?) media play...

No, it's something else: If you ISP gives you 8 Mbps, that's 1 MB/s (or even 0.8 MB/s). Note the b versus B.

That is correct. I also tried it on my Mac, with the other newsgroup software and it works fine there also. Just SAB on the HTPC. Pretty sad about this problem. I cannot finish automating my brand new HTPC without getting this up and running. :( And did you try SABnzbd on the Mac? BTW: you do know ...

So:
- ethernet cable
- also happens with 2 connections and limited speed
- does not happen with other usenet downloading software on the same computer

If so, then I'm out of ideas.

Is your SAB machine connected via Wifi or ethernet-cable? If Wifi, try an ethernet-cable. Furthermore - how many newsserver connections? What happens when you lower the number of connections to 5 or 8? - what is the bandwidth of your Internet connection, and which speed does SAB achieve? - What happ...

Ah. I'm not sure how to solve that. Maybe:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

... and then try again.

/opt/SABnzbd-.0.7.6

That explains it.

Does "sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus" work on your system?

EmPleh wrote:Ah yeah, I checked that earlier.

That dir doesn't actually exist.

It's not a dir, but a file.

Anyway: how did you install: the tar.gz-file, or the PPA for Ubuntu/Debian?

Ah, now I understand.

Open Media Vault seems to be based on Debian Linux. If so, does the file /etc/default/sabnzbdplus exist? If so, find the line "USER=", and append the username you're using on your Open Media Vault (check with "whoami"). Save the file, and reboot your system.

I see nothing problematic. You should now access SABnzbd via your webbrowser, and put a NZB into it.
