You can already instruct UE to start autodownloading after import
(see [properties][general])

It doesn't create a new sub-directory according to the name (I don't see why it should, since some names are very silly or very long) but you can set the save-directory or your import-group.

Oke, that is one point, UE can start downloading immediatly.
But when I download a NZB file I normally have friendly name

I get them straight from my browser (without saving it on disk)

So I don't have control in the name it has.
If I first have to save it on disk, it will be more work.

Although you can save them to the Import directory in the database-folder (that way UE will automatically load the nzb)...

Is there a time intervall which I can set for scanning this derectory? Solved
Are the files automatically saved, or do I need to set it somewhere? Solved

Ok, and the I only need a program which can scan and verify and unpack all the right files to a seperate directory

There is one, but it's in dutch.
It's pretty self-explanatory though...

You can automate it (it will scan directory's you have to see if new files arrive) partially, but you will have to press two button's yourself: Par2 for checkking the post and Rar for unpacking it.

You can instruct how to unpack:
-Folder with new subfolder (name of archive)
-Folder without new subfolder
-Folder with new subfolder (where you specify the name of the subfolder)
-Browse to folder where you wish to unpack

(For your info: Bronmap = source-folder)

It's called newsdigger, and you can find it at: http://themole.users.balpol.tudelft.nl/newsdigger/

Oke, thanx, I am going to try this program asap.
And for me, no problem with the dutch language.

Do you know by anychange the developer?
I am missing some small thing though
1. Automaticaly unpack after a successfull par(2) repair.
2. Unpack all to a specific directory
3. All par2 sets at once, one after another, and the off course unpack everthing.

If this is possible it would be great.

Thanx

Development has been standing still for quite some time now...
There's a contact possibility at the site I mentioned though

I have send the developer of the program a mail, we will see.
For now it is just usefull as a manager, it is a pitty it cannot continue to the next archive though.

I will keep in touch if the developer answers my mail
