Thanks Alex. Will test the export-function. The new import/export functionality improves NewsPro again!

Now Let's hope we get some FREE providers of header coming up soon, I am more than willing to be a beta user for anyone that is going to put up his/her files ! You might try the combination of the FREE-site http://alt.binaries.nl/ with a free program called UseD (available here: http://used.hellhou...

Once Import has been finished I also think that exporting might be a great feature, so you will be able to generate a nbz-file from a selected number of files.

one question though: Since you implemted this, in version's 7.13 en 7.14 (which i've tested) the Taskmanager isn't working the way it should. The progression bars for the segments that are downloaded don't show the progress anymore. Also the "Time Left" display doesn't make any sense anym...

Just do the following (after you've saved a .nbz-file to disk): Go to import and choose "Import headers". In the dialog-box find the saved nbz-file and open it; Seconds later a new "newsgroup" will be available: #~Import which contains all the imported headers. Obviously "Im...

The latest update works great for larger nzb-files, matter of seconds This really is a great feature.

I will do some more testing and see if the searchgroup doesn't get emptied for no reason.

I will report my test-activity here once I've done some more testing.

Here's another note:
After a while not using Newspro (but left it running) the #~Import group became empty (no headers) and the text [empty] in the newsgroup-pane. I have no idea what caused this. A "normal" group with headers (not an XPat-group) is fine.

Great. Let us know the progress.

Maybe you should checkout the "req: download packages" thread since Alex states that nzb-support is currently under development.

Thanks Alex. If you need any help testing let us know.

That sure is great news. Best of luck, I think this feature shouldn't be left out in Newspro!

Alex: I've send you a private message regarding the nbz-files.

Hi Alex.

I wouldn't mind buidling an open-standard for this feature and also make a converter for converting NewzBin files to this open-standard. Maybe you should checkout a file from NewzBin to see what kind of information they provide currently (I can als supply you with one).

Just let me know...

NewsLeecher is one of the first programs who offers something like the download-packages I suggested earlier. Using the site newzbin.com you can download a file with message-IDs which can be used for direct downloading. I really would like to see the ability to import message-ids into NewsPro (and e...

With so many indexing services out there it is almost a shame each and every user of a NNTP-Client has to obtain header-info himself. Although XPAT has made life a lot easier it can also take a long time to get the headers you need. I have been working on NNTP-Clients (obtaining/posting) myself for ...
