usenet-crawler integration?

(1/3) > >>

Slinky:
been using usenet-crawler a fair bit lately, seems to be improving hand over fist since they relaunched and i was wondering a couple of things

1. password auto reading, a lot of theirs are in the nzb file, meta data? opening in notepad reveals it - any chance of integration of reading this in the auto unpack option? - i can send over an NZB if needed to use as example.

2. I think they have an API, any chance of a built in search tab ? - not sure if api access is like omgwtnzbs and based on subscriber or not, I did donate to usenet-crawler so have their BFF status, so happy to test if needed

#1 This already works for passworded rarsets.

I suspect the issue with U-C is that many of their posts are split 7z files (7z.001, 7z.002, 7z.003, etc). I don't use autounrar, but for passworded posts I can manually select "Unrar the PAR2/SFV set" after the download is finished and the password from the nzb is successfully used when it is a rarset. But when the post is a split 7z archive, telling it to Unrar instead joins the parts into one large 7z file (that is still passworded). If I select Unrar a second time (hoping the new large 7z file will be extracted) it says it failed and the large 7z file actually gets deleted.


#2 U-C is just another newznab site. It works along with all my other sites under my newznab tab. Unpaid users currently get limited api hits.

Interesting.

I used to not unrar at all, but then found so many from omgwtfnzbs were passworded, that i turned it on, but found i was losing sub title files when deleting after unrar, so i now have default unrar selected, no deletion of archive files after.
I have noticed some from U-C are one large file, others the more standard multiple smaller files, some only as many as 8 files though, others lots.

It's never unrar'd automatically for me though, i've had to always go to the nzb file i've downloaded to find the password.


Didn't know about the Newznab thing, just trying to set that up now, need to find the url

sidbib:
For clarity I should have mentioned this in my post:

I am still running version 0.47.3.6. I have not yet updated to one of the newer versions past that, so there is a possibility that my experience on 0.47.3.6 is not the same as someone running the latest 0.47.4.1.

In AltBinz, to the right of the of "setup" icon on the top; to the right is an arrow pointing down, which leads to "newznab servers"

You set it up there. the url is    https://www.usenet-crawler.com
you find the "api key" on the UC site. If you've donated, it will be on the page where your profile is located
