LinuxServer Changes:

nzbget Changes:

• reworked duplicate handling to support URLs, especially when using RSS feeds (#541):
  • queue items added via URLs (to be fetched by nzbget) are no longer immediately fetched;
  • instead url-items are handled by duplicate check similar to nzb-items and may be placed into history as duplicate backups;
  • if an url-item needs to be downloaded as backup for a failed other item the nzb-file is fetched via provided URL;
  • this greatly reduces the number of nzbs fetched from indexers when using RSS feeds and duplicate handling;
• improved support for Android devices (#538):
  • now providing a separate installer package for Android;
  • the package contains binaries built using Android NDK;
  • this improves compatibility with Android, in particular with Android 8, where general Linux installer version of NZBGet didn't work anymore due to security changes in Android;
  • android installer app is updated to use the new android installer package instead of general Linux package;
• thoroughly optimised the program to reduce power consumption in idle state (#351, #593, #597):
  • number of CPU wake ups in idle state has been reduced from hundreds times per second to about only one per second;
• optimisations for large queues with thousands of items (#591):
  • speed up saving of queue state and reduced number of queue state savings;
  • improved queue state format to reduce amount of state data saved during downloading;
  • in tests download speed for very large queue (16000 items) has been increased from 45 MB/s to 300 MB/s (comparing to 400 MB/s with small queue);
• added native support for aarch64 architecture (ARM 64 Bit CPU) in Linux and Android installers (#629);
• updated unrar to 5.7 and 7-zip to 19.0 (#618);
• Windows installer now includes unrar in 32 bit and 64 bit variants (#618);
• allowing wildcards in option AuthorizedIP (#620);
• force par-check for nzbs without archives (#525);
• improved handling of files splitted via par2 (#595);
• added python 3 compatibility to EMail.py script (#578);
• added python 3 compatibility to Logger.py script (#581);
• proper UTF-8 encoding of email content in EMail.py script (#585);
• improved error reporting for queue disk state corruption (#591);
• removed suggestion of RC4 cipher (#611);
• better description of option UMask (#612);
• integrated LGTM code analyser tool into project (#604);
• added functional tests for unpack CRC error (#558);
• click on nzbget logo in web-interface now switches to downloads tab instead of showing "About dialog" which has been moved into settings (#564);
• fixed: failed downloads not having any par2- or archive- files were moved to DestDir instead of remaining in InterDir (#562);
• fixed crash when using FIPS version of OpenSSL (#561);
• fixed potential crash in built-in web-server (#567);
• fixed: statistics for session download time and speed may be way off on high load (#573);
• fixed many compilation warnings in GCC (#590, #592);
• fixed deprecated OpenSSL calls (#600);
• fixed: macOS menubar widget could not connect if password contained special characters (#599);
• fixed compatibility issue with OpenSSL compiled without compression support (#607, #608);
• fixed: remote clients not displaying current download speed (#351, #610);
• fixed: remote server could crash when feed with invalid api request (#621);
• fixed trimming of relative paths in config (#622, #135).

• fixed: when direct rename was active certain downloads with damaged par2-files become paused at near completion and required manual resuming (#424);
• fixed: crash when flushing article cache after direct rename (#529);
• fixed: deleting active par-job may crash the program (#527);
• fixed: tests may fail on Windows due to locked files (#528);
