Download NewsBin Pro 6.61 Build 4195 Beta 1

A new version of NewsBin Pro has been released, a beta this time. 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. Furthermore, there are extensive filter options and an optional Usenet search service can be used. Version 6.61 is a bug fix release for version 6.60.

Version 6.61 Beta 1 Build 4195
Some issues have cropped up in 6.60 so we decided to start a new beta cycle for 6.61. Read through the list of changes and if something has been bothering you, maybe it’s in this list.

• NZB files are no longer compacted in with the rar/par set
• Info from .SRR files are now included when you ctrl-r on a compacted set containing .srr files.
• When items are queued using Ctrl-Y, to force the download, don’t make it start a download over from the beginning if Newsbin is restarted.
• Made change so new records don’t get inserted to the top of the post list during header processing. Was causing flickering of the screen which annoyed people.
• Increased the number of watch entries you can have to 120.
• Fixed potential issue with Newsbin filtering out stuff it shouldn’t be.
• Headers are now stored compressed again until they are processed. The trade-off of disk space usage vs. CPU usage is not justified.
• Internal use of regular expressions has been sped up. Should improve overall processing speed of normal functions.
• Fix to make sure the NBI path gets set on exit.
• Added maximize buttons to the tabs.
• Fixed issue where Header downloads failed with connection errors instead of retrying.
• Change to column headers in servers tab and information displayed to make it more clear. Specifically Server Active/Disabled and if the server is set to download headers or not.
