Spread the love

The development process for NewsBin Pro version 6.50 has started and the first beta release has now been released. With this program files – such as photos, movies and programs – can be retrieved from usenet. New in version 6.50 is, among other things, a Watch function, which allows you to watch for specific things when retrieving the headers. The full release notes look like this:

Version 6.50 new features and changes summary since 6.42

  • New Watch feature. Configure Newsbin to pull out items of interest during header downloads.
  • Ability to launch post unrar processing scripts.
  • Provides the ability to download parts of a post to one drive and have them assembled to another. Useful if you want to minimize I/O bottlenecks by downloading to a fast internal drive then save the assembled files on larger external media like a NAS.
  • Optimizations for downloading to SSD drives
  • Uses new hashing code. Seems to solve the rare problem where Newsbin and quickpar don’t agree on the hash value
  • If you have two unique Regular Expressions with a space between them, it’ll AND the results.
  • Intermediate NB2 files are no longer used.
  • New logic to verify all downloaded files even without pars so it won’t download dup files ever.
  • Startup checking is much faster, like if you exit with large sets in the download list.
  • Compacts more posting styles
  • The “Small File Filter” is now disabled by default (Show PAR/NFO)
  • Unnecessary files in the data folder gets purged on startup now.
  • Now supports SMTP authentication for email notifications.

Tech Notes:

  • When downloading, all the chunks go to a common folder in the data folder.
  • When downloading headers, all the updates are sent to a common folder and not “per group”.
  • Only 2 downloading modes, fully buffered in memory or chunks in the common folder.
  • The chunks folder is only used if the memory cache has to be flushed.
  • Current in memory chunks get flushed out.

Version 6.50 Beta 1 Build 2550, March 29, 2013

  • Fixed sorting on Status column. It actually works now.
  • Fixed crash issue that would occur if you try to load an NZB file before Newsbin completes initialization.
  • Hooked up SMTP authentication for email notifications
  • Added commas to the header download count.
  • The default NZB Download path now includes NZB Filename
  • Autopar: Now scans for blocks instead of depending on the MD5 hash.
  • Autopar: Changed repair lib to be more precise to reduce false positive repairs.
  • Display: Changed files list delete to just delete, not purge and delete. Faster now.
  • Display: Reporting “Close Socket Error” because the socket was never used.
  • Display: Split out advanced options on the Server Options screen, was getting too busy.
  • Download: Added an Server Option to use the NNTP Body command instead of Article. The only way “premiumize.me” news server can work.
  • Download: Added a hidden way to defer authentication till the server asks for it. Probably never been used. [SERVER NAME] DeferAuth=0/1;
  • Download: Aggressive mode is now real aggressive and if selected will kick in within 5 seconds of the last chunk download.
  • Scripting: Added ability to specify a custom post processing script saved in the Scripts folder under the Data Folder
  • Scripting Notes: Creates an input.txt file with the filenames of all the files in the unrar before calling the script and an output.txt file containing a list of files found within the RAR beore calling the script. Details discussed in this forum post.
