NZBGet

NZBGet is a binary downloader written in C++, which downloads files from Usenet based on the information given in nzb-files. It is designed with performance in mind to achieve maximum download speed by using minimal system resources. Some of the features are:

Fast deobfuscation (par-rename)
RSS with duplicate check
Flexible news server management
Smart par-repair

More information on this app can be found here.

Please make yourself aware of the Ultra.cc Fair Usage Policy. Directly pointing any NZB client to download directly to (or worse, try to download and unpack) your cloud storage using Rclone Mount will create extreme strain on the disk and WILL cause a 24-hour ban on accessing your cloud storage repeatedly.

It is YOUR responsibility to ensure usage is within acceptable limits.

In this section, we'll be setting up NZBGet for the first time. Here, we'll be doing the following tasks:

Login to the NZBGet instance for the first time.
Change ControlUsername and ControlPassword.
