[Request] Change name when adding nzb's

Post by Panja » 11 Aug 2015, 12:36

Would be nice if you can change the name of your download when adding a NZB.

At the moment we have 2 options:

1) rename nzb with the correct name, e.g. rename nzb to "Movie (2015)" than add the nzb
2) add nzb and than edit the download and change the name to "Movie (2015)"

Would be great if we can eliminate the extra step and have the "renaming option" integrated like SAB has...

The problem here is the add-dialog accepts multiple nzbs at once. Therefore adding a simple edit-field for new name (like in SAB) will not work. A more complex solution is required, like clicking on the filename (after it's shown in the dialog for upload) and then editing the name in the extra dialog. That doesn't make it much easier than now.

Any UI suggestions?

Hmmm I understand the pain here.
Did not know you could add multiple nzb's at once (nice!), being a nzbget n00b.

I made the same request here:

http://forum.nzbget.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1173

Would it be possible to do some kind of interactive listbox that normally just shows the filenames of the files that were uploaded, but if clicked, goes into inline 'edit mode' for any individual line item? Then the name could be edited inline.

I would also find it helpful if the password could be parsed out of the filename (this {{..}} business). I have to hunt around and see if anybody has created an add-on for that...

Thanks
