14.5 Using Usenet Client
NZBGet is a command-line based binary newsgrabber that downloads files from Usenet servers
based on information given in
NZB files . NZBGet can be installed on the Popcorn Hour VTEN, as
part of NMT Apps, and the files can be downloaded directly to the local storage formatted in the
NMT Setup Wizard. To use the NZBGet client go into the
NMT Applications section of the Setup
menu and start the Usenet service. Please note that the service will remain on, even after a power
cycle, until you go back and stop it.
To run the NZBGet application you need access to a Usenet provider. Your internet service
provider may have a news server that you can access, or you can have a separate Usenet
account on a
pay-server .
Once you have a Usenet account, you can configure NZBGet on your NMT to access the account.
