[REQUEST] NZB compatible usenet newsgroup downloader and stream script or plugin?

Yes i was making a program like that.
look at : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G31Hkqfs6Q

if I create it on windows than some pyhon guys can make the xbmc frontend.
it would be nice if you can control everything from the xbox.
so after you pick a movie, it will be streamed in a couple of seconds (15-30)

if this project is supported by more people i'm willing to put my time in it.

Looks good!

Everybody, show your support.

Now that is a sweet looking app

I would sign back up with my old usenet provider in a snap if this ever came off !

depatman,

how are you handling the condition of more than 1 video per NZB (e.g. 1 show split in 700mb chunks)? I believe we are starting to see less of this practice (who burns stuff to CDs anyway?), but it's still fairly prevalent.

I would love such a feature!

If nzb files has more video's then they must be played after eachother.
I think all downloads need to have their own folder.
so you can browse in all of them.

also people can choice if they want to save their content or if the want to delete it after playing.

Not sure if anyone else would be interested in this but I was curious of any of the plugin codes could create a plugin/script that could query nzbmatrix and return a list/donwload a nzb. Even if it could not handle the pass to a binary usenet downloading program it would be cool to check to see if a new episode of a tv was available for instance without having to exit xbmc.

Has there been any work on this recently? Seems like a pretty cool idea!

Edit: Pneumatic seems to be a pretty good solution
