NNTPGrab is in staat om bestanden van usenet binnen te halen en wordt onder de gpl uitgegeven. Het kan gebruikmaken van de welbekende nzb-bestanden, automatisch par2-bestanden verwerken en meerdere usenet-servers raadplegen. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we jullie door naar deze pagina. De ontwikkelaars hebben versie 0.5.0 voor zowel Linux, Mac OS X als Windows uitgegeven. De bijbehorende lijst met aanpassingen ziet er als volgt uit:
Version 0.5.0:
- Improved the automatic unpack GUI by showing the files which are currently being extracted
- Improved error handling in the automatic unpack
- Rewritten several parts of the Automatic Unpack plugin which are needed to prevent a console window being shown while unpacking on Win32 environments
- When a collection contains multiple PAR2 sets, the GUI could show a lot of assertion errors. Fixed
- When checking PAR2 files which belong to another PAR2 set, the progressbar in the GUI could get stuck. Fixed
- Don't bail out when decoding invalid yEnc messages. Solves the 'Unknown decode error occured, No error (0)' messages
- Reduce the required disk space on Win32 environments by using a small wrapper program for the executable nntpgrab_gui_debug.exe
- Dropped the cURL dependency for environments where libsoup 2.4 (or higher) is installed. This reduces the size of the installer on Win32 and Mac OS X environments
- The performance of decoding files should be slightly improved
- The NNTPGrab Server could freeze on old Linux environments when run in the background. Fixed
- Made the columns in the Repair and Unpack tab resizeable and repositionable
- Renamed the toolbar button 'Enable automatic shutdown' to 'Automatic shutdown' to prevent wrapping
- Automatic shutdown wasn't working on Mac OS X environments. Fixed
- Introduced an automatic snapshot generator which builds Mac OS X installers after each change done in the Subversion repository. These snapshots are published at http://www.nntpgrab.nl/snapshots
- Rewritten the speed monitor in the GUI to be more efficient
- The program could crash when performing a NZBCreator search with the minimum or maximum file size options set. Fixed
- Rewritten the processing of signals in the glue layer to be more efficient
- Made the download queue manipulation code more thread safe
- Several changes required for Win64 support
- Several memory leaks fixed
