1. We suggest starting the SABnzbd installation process by using the installer via the website of SABnzbd. located here.

  • Mac installations are quick and easy.  Just download the .dmg file and double click to install it to your applications folder.
  • Once installed continue to the next step.

2. Double click on the desktop icon or search in the Start Menu for “SABnzbd”).  Once launched, the SABnzbd admin interface will appear. 
3. Select your language preference and continue. 
4. Now you will need to fill out the newsserver information. That information is:

  • Host: news.eweka.nl
  • Username: your assigned username, you will find this in your welcome email as well as in My Eweka.  
  • Password: Your selected password.  This is also the password for your Eweka account.  
  • TLS Checkbox: If you are on a high speed connection and a fairly recent computer, we usually suggest using the TLS option.  Do note that it can add additional processing overhead, especially on older computers.  If you are on a computer with lower processing power, we suggest deactivating this option. 

5. Once you have entered your server login information, click next. 
6. SABnzbd is now ready to begin downloading. 

  • Begin this process by clicking on the top menu plus symbol “+”.  This will let you add an NZB file directly into SABnzbd either from your computer or a URL.
  • For additional automation options, you can create a SABnzbd “Watch Folder”.  When you add NZB files to this folder, SABnzbd will automatically begin downloading the associated files. 
  • To set your Watch Folder, click on the gear icon to open SABnzbd settings, then navigate to the “Folder” menu.  Once there, select your “Watched Folder” and confirm.
