Hi!

I've written a python script for XBMC to work with hellaNZB (http://www.hellanzb.com).
It's for usenet downloading from the couch

Current Features:

-Usenet Searching/Browsing in XBMC
-Queueing in hellaNZB
-Shows hellaNZB Download Status

It's on alpha status at the moment (no config files, so the configuration is a little bit nasty, but can be done in 10 minutes)

If you are interested in this plugin, please mail me.

I did it just for me and now i have no time for developing further. Perhaps someone else can take this job now

Post a direct link to the script might help

[chmanie]

no, i just wanted to know if someone is interested in this script, then i take the time and write a little documentation for installing.

sorry !

-Usenet Searching/Browsing in XBMC

Hello chmanie,

I am confused how this feature might work, I haven't installed your script yet, but I am interested in it because I've got a linux box running hellanzb and I would love to be able to tap into it using my XBMC boxes.
But how does it "search" usenet? via newzbin?
Searching usenet is not a function of hellanzb, so I am curious as to how this works.

TIA,
-BassKozz

Yeah you are right thats not a feauture of hellanzb. I made this work via newzbin.

[BassKozz]

Nice work
I am going to install it now and play around with it for a few days, I'll give you some feedback in a few, Thanks

Wait a second, the readme.txt file says:

The script is based on http://newzleech.com 's site.

So which is it, Newzbin.com or NewzLeech.com ?

[deadelvis]

Whow! Can't wait to test this one!!!
Feedback soon.

Thanks a lot for the effort.

I would test it, but I need an invitation to newzbin. i used to be a member but it doesn't recognize my username?

I was wondering if you'd be willing to, or be willing to help port it for use with sabnzbd+ (http://www.sabnzbd.org) while the original sabnzbd is no longer being developed another developer, and a few others have now made it to be better than any alternative I've seen, and it's open source.

[gzusrawx]

And they now have a cross interface api, which makes it easier.

a little off topic but i want to use this plugin with newzbin but i cannot for the life of me find a way to get an invite could someone please hook me up?
