Ready for auto nzb downloads and transmission

Help and Support Vero
1

Hi all,

I’m totally new to vero/rasp pi etc. I’ve been using a popcorn hour a-110 since 2008 and it’s been happily downloading nzbs in the background and playing mkvs well for years. Recently it’s showing signs of dying so on a whim I’ve ordered a vero box.

Can people advise what their recommended apps services are for:

  • setting up nzb downloads and are these auto cataloged by kodi/osmc?
  • is transmission the torrent client of choice still?

Are these services best installed via command line or does osmc simplify the procedure.

Apologies for noob questions but I have no experience of this but once I’m into something I’m pretty good at picking stuff up.

Best wishes

Thanks mate. Much obliged.

I’m itching to implement this. But looking to keep costs low. Do you need to have a usenet account or is there an alternative.

Thanks

I am looking at adding NZB grabbers and a torrent client to our App Store

Sorry if I’m being thick

Does that mean we won’t be needing usenet accounts?

I don’t understand what would give you that idea

You’ll still need a UseNet account. The App Store will just let you get the client installed easily
