Good stuff rAf, appreciate it
Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Now that the old GUI isn't supported any more, your work is very appreciated!

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Sticking this thread. Do you think it would be possible to roll this into future sabnzbd osx builds as an option?
Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
That was my initial goal, but after thinking a separate app is better to control a remote sab...
It's my first cocoa app, i'm learning.

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Very nice!
Would it be possible to associate SABnzbdX as the program to open .nzb files, and have it automatically send that .nzb to the remote (or local) instance of SABnzbd+ that's running?

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Love this app, all the more reason for me to get off my ass and upgrade my macbook to 10.5. In the interim though, feature request wise, would it be possible to get growl notifications? Ideally for when sab picks up a new nzb, and for when downloading is complete. I know sab can do this on a local install, but I have never seen it for remote daemons which is what I pretty much exclusively use.
Thanks.

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
+1 for growl support as well. I've had no luck getting the network growl script to push across the network reliably (I think it's a growl problem, as it used to work, and there's complaints about similar problems all over their forums).
Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Some features i've planned to add :
- Growl notifications
- Multi SABnzbd support
- Get Newsbin bookmark action
- Force disconnect
- Display warnings / errors
- Check if SAB is running before trying to import NZB and display a message if not
If you have more ideas, tell me.
I have to put priorities, tell me what you would like first.
Edit : some features in V1.1
- Growl notifications
- Multi SABnzbd support
- Get Newsbin bookmark action
- Force disconnect
- Display warnings / errors
- Check if SAB is running before trying to import NZB and display a message if not

How about having it show the 5 (?) latest downloads and when you select an entry it will open the folder in finder ?
In some cases (tv sorting etc) it would save some time compared to searching or navigating to the right folder.

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
One more thing that just came to my mind...
I have two computers (not the same IP) running SAB. They share the same usenet account,
which means when accidentally downloading at the same time they will get banned for a few minutes.
So the plan would be to have your GUI (as soon as multiple instances are supported) give priority
to one of the computers and as soon as it has finished downloading force a disconnect and then let
the other do it's job.
sound possible ? ;-)

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Great idea ! I have the same problem ! but i want to keep this soft simple...
I think maybe it can be done like :
- multiple SABnzbd have to be in a group (all SAB in a group share the same usenet account).
- if one is downloading, the others must be paused.
- if no one is downloading, check queue for SAB in the same group to resume
What do you think of that ?
For now, SABnzbd API is not very rich, i have to see with shypike and swich how we could improve that (i know that they have already done a lot of work but not precisely what)

Re: SABnzbdX, SABnzbd for OSX gui
Nice work You do some excelent work for us (osx) leechers
But i have to say i dont like the colored icon and imo it is to wide. Could do without the icon and smaller font (similar to istatmenu > network)
Keep it up!
