Yarbles,

Would it be possible to make it work with another 2 GM for IE ports I found:

http://www.gm4ie.com/index.html

http://www.reifysoft.com/developers.php


Also, have you had any luck at all on making it work with Opera at all.  I need to use either IE or Opera with Newzbin, as pages just takes waaaaaay too long to render in FF, and it's driving me crazy.

Cheers

I didn't have much success getting it to work with Opera because of the XMLHttpRequest limitations. IE may have the same problem,  other GM addons I've tried still did not emulate GM_XMLHttpRequest properly, but even if that was fixed IE does not support Xpath queries, which I switched to a few versions ago because they are more reliable and easier to maintain.

This is an absolutely wonderful script!

Small (I hope) request, would it be possible to make the links to SABnzbd pages from the dropdown open in a new tab?

Thanks.

[Yarbles]

Regarding links opening in new windows: Actually, I'm not quite sure why they don't. I coded them to do that, and they use to behave that way, but about a month ago they stopped. I think I saw a mention of the sites javascript being updated around that time, but I haven't been able to track down the exact cause.

If anyone has found that the new Newzbin logo has screwed up the sabtab placement, you can do the following to fix it:

1. Right click your Greasemonkey icon and select the 'Manage User Scripts' option.

2. Select the Sabtab script from the top left box, and then click the Edit button at the bottom.

3. The script should open with your default text editor.  Find the line which says:

document.getElementById("mnMain").style.margin = '0 0 0 15px';

Change it to:

document.getElementById("mnMain").style.margin = '0 0 1 15px';

It should now fit nicely with the new logo, at least it did for me.

Thank Alchemyst - worked for me too
I asked on newzbin how to fix, but then I found yours - now Ive posted it on newzbin to help others in need
(I will remove and apologise upon request)

Yeah, I couldnt find where to turn it off :/

LOL, figures that there would be an easier way after I figure out one way of doing it..  Your way gives exactly the same result

I just blocked the new logo on Adblock

[RXP]

Nop, I didn't like it much anyway.

Update: 1.6

// Changes from1.5.1
//   Added "Mark downloaded/queued" options, also works dynamically when adding report to SAB
//   Fixed problem with some lister options and the 1-click confirm dialog
//   Fixed clicking SabTab Tab opens in new window, also goes to Queue instead of home (submenu still 'broken')

The big new addition is that SabTab will compare report titles against your history and/or queue and fade those titles slightly. It will also fade a title when you add it to the queue. Thanks to mnkykyd and Stilllife for suggesting this feature. This feature is disabled by default and can be turned on in the SabTab Prefs panel.

It works by title, not report ID so duplicate reports will be caught, even if you didn't download that exact nzb, provided the title is exactly the same. There is a chance for false positives. But it should be rare enough that I'm not going to waste time and CPU cycles unless it proves to be a bigger issue. It also misses titles using special characters (å, ø, etc) the latest GM release introduced a function that could fix this, if I can figure out how to make it work. Also, " ", /, ', ?, and : are converted to _ in SAB, so I have to convert them myself to make a match. Those are all I've found so far, if anyone spots other _ characters let me know.

I'm not completely happy with the fade itself. I would like for the attrib popup from faded panels to be fully visible, but I tried for over an hour and couldn't get it to work. Instead I settled on a lighter fade so the attribs are still barely readable. If you want a different fade level search the script for "opacity" and set the value in the 3 places you find it. 0=invisible to 1= opaque.

I've made History/queue checks both optional for user preference, even with 200 items per page and a long history I have not noticed a performance impact on my system.


EDIT: I just realized I'm still using SABnzbd 0.2.4 because I had issues with 0.2.5, and I never got around to testing the new "old post" features with 0.2.5. I'll test it tomorrow and fix it if there is a problem. Or if anyone can confirm it works with 0.2.5 by then it will save me the trouble.

[chokomon]

Thanks -- this is a great new feature.  I'm using 0.2.5 and the fade seems to work fine.

With the theme I'm using, the default 0.6 opacity was too high (a little hard to tell difference between faded item and normal, especially when skimming through results).  Changed it to 0.3 and it's much better.

[brucedlx]

What's the difference between this and just using the NZB_Blackhole folder??

[daddy_fizz]

some would say it is faster, adds a button to go directly to sab next to each post, can see speed of sabnzbd/queue size/hd space from newzbin page
