Download Newsbin Pro 6.80 Release Candidate 2 Build 5029

The second release candidate of NewsBin Pro 6.80 has been released. With this program files, such as photos, videos and programs, can be retrieved from usenet. It has everything you would expect from a usenet downloader, such as support for multithreading, ssl and autopar. There are also extensive filter options and an optional Usenet search service can be used. In version 6.80, among other things, the download engine has been further improved. The changelog for the last few versions looks like this:

Version 6.80 Release Candidate 2 Build 5029

• Fixed issue running on 32 bit machines.
• The remote NZB interface is now single threaded. Still supports multiple clients but they get processed in sequence instead of in parallel. Addresses potential reliability issues.
• Fixed issue where some tabs would not stay open between runs such as Servers and Thumbnails.
• Fixed a potential thread exit which can be triggered by some specific errors.
• Fixed issue where header downloads on empty groups would leave the download in the download list sometimes.
• Fixed issue where download errors could force the assembler thread to exit.
• Made some changes to address error reports possibly tripping for an unrelated error event.

Version 6.80 Release Candidate 2 Build 5020

Version 6.80 Release Candidate 1 Build 5005

• Fixed issue where downloading a sample isn’t putting “Sample” on the filename if there is an unrar failure.
• Fixed issue where sampling deleted the rars and output files.
• Fixed issue where compacted NZB’s don’t always sort the PARS to the bottom of the list. Would cause slow repair and unrar.
