Extension summary

SABctrl replaces download links with a SABnzbd icon that sends the NZB directly to your SABnzbd server! If you temporarily want to open the download link normally, just right-click the icon and choose "open". The following sites are supported:

  • Nzbindex.nl/.com
  • NZB.su
  • Usenet-Crawler.com
  • NZBPlanet.net
  • I won't be adding generic Newznab support. I simply don't have the time.

Specify server address and API key in the settings and the extension should display your current download job. A badge will show speed when downloading and 'P' when paused.

The various buttons that limit speed can be altered to other values.

User reviews

I dig it and replaced the aging SabConnect++ with this but why does this not add an icon on NZB sites to directly send to SABNZBD or am I missing something?

Works with new Sabnzbd 2.0.0+. SabConnect++ had stopped listing d/l's and didn't understand speed %. This extension does. Thanks. Badge icons are better too.

Doesn't work.
