The Nzb File Downloader
« on: June 19, 2006, 02:32:00 PM »

H!

I found a great tool for people (newbies) that want to download super fast using the newsgroups.
the program is made in python and you can find it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sabnzbd/

The program is very easy:
- start the program (runs at the background)
- find a good nzb file
- go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/sabnzbd/ (is also possible to remotecontrol this program !)
- past the url at (or select the file) at and the download starts (with automatic repair! and checks)

Now i'm trying to get this running on the xbox.
because its made in python it must be possible, I did try some things but I don't have the skills to port it.
So if someone have some time to port this program , a lot of people are happy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Before I try again I want to know if its possible to run that program on a xbox.
So I include below the readme.txt with some specs.

Does someone know if this will work ?
What python version is running with the latest xmbc on the xbox anyway ?

Thanks for all the information,
GC-Martijn
