This product is fantastic in every way, I have no complaint. I do have a suggestion for an upcoming release though: could you make it so there is a “time remaining” info field somewhere? Thanks in advance!

Brilliant software! Thanks for creating exactly what I was looking for
I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks and just purchased it. I agree with the previous comment – an “estimated time remaining” would be the icing on this tasty cake.
Thanks again.

I also agree this is fantastic and I agree with the time remaining suggestion I also would like to see to remove downloaded parts from the download window so only active transfers are showing.

It seems to be nearly perfect but it just bogs down the computer. Multi-second delays, sometimes it takes 30 seconds or so to switch applications even on this Intel Dual Core 2 2GHz processor.

I have to say this is the best NZB software out for Mac. But can we please have the above stated feature. Also on option to skip files if already downloaded. finally maybe if they were all in one window. thanks for a lovely product.

Ive noticed that the preferences limit connections to 16. My newsgroup provider lets me go up to 20… is there anyway to set nzb drop to 20??

Why only 16 connections allowed? giganews allows 20, and you even
recommend them….
FIX!

Hey,
Just started trying out NZB Drop and I like it alot so far.
However, just as Saul suggest, having a time remaining info somewhere would be nice and maybe the option of showing % of files done on the dock icon instead of no of downloaded files as it is today.
Great software and unless something unexpected happens I’ll convert the trial into full product when the trial expires.

More than 16 connections per server will be allowed in the next release.
In the meantime you can enter your server twice in Preferences. Specify 16 connections for one, 4 for the other. That will max out your 20 available connections for Giganews.
