Hello, I have Newsbin installed on two computers. Now I want to change the machines and continue downloading on my other computer. How do I manage to migtate the download list to that machine. I tried to make an nzb-file from the list, but there seem to be too many files?!
I would appreciate your help very much!
Best regards from Germany!

The file "downloads.db3" contains the entire failed, wish and download list of files. If you copy that file over, you transfer the download list. Keep in mind that the download path is also defined there too so, you have to make sure the download paths makes sense on the other machine. If not, you'll want to start Newsbin with the new list, immediately pause, then assign a new path to all the downloads.

Hi Quade, thanks for that immediate answer! I like newsbin very much, now even more ;-)
I have one last question: Is it possible to merge these db3 - Files, so I can make one out of two in different computers?
