About the new major version

We have been working for months to upgrade the SABnzbd code from Python 2 to Python 3.
Although it might not sound like a big change, we had to rewrite almost every part of
the code. We also included a number of new features, listed below.

Big changes in 3.0.0

Python 3.5 and above are the only supported versions of Python.
Cache handling is greatly improved, resulting in more stable speeds on some systems.
Articles failing with CRC errors are now retried on other servers.
SFV files, even obfuscated, will be used for renaming when there are no par2 files.
Fully obfuscated RAR-sets with no verification files are detected and extracted.
Built-in internet bandwidth test.
Windows Service support was changed. The service will need to be reinstalled!
Documentation: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/sabnzbd-as-a-windows-service
The Windows installer is 64-bit only, for 32-bit please use the standalone package.

Other changes since 2.3.9

Files inside an NZB that are fully identical are now skipped automatically.
Folders of jobs that failed post-processing are renamed to _FAILED_.
Blocking of unwanted extensions that are directly inside an NZB.
In Python 3 OpenSSL 1.1.1 is used for Windows and macOS, as a result
newsservers manually set to RC4-MD5 cipher can no longer connect.
Documentation: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/ssl-ciphers
TLS1.3 support for newsserver connections.
SABYenc, par2 and unrar are now required to start downloading.
Growl-support was removed.
The smpl skin was removed.
Using the API with output=text to add NZB's will report the nzo_ids instead of ok.
Queue-item labels are no longer part of the name but separated in API-property labels.
API-calls tapi and qstatus were removed.
On Windows only Multipar is available for repair.
Linux tray icon support was improved.
On Linux special permission bits are removed from files after download.
macOS features such as the menu and notifications now use native code.

Bugfixes since 2.3.9

Resolved potential security issue in FAT-filesystem check and Nice and IONice Parameters.
More information: https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/security/advisories/GHSA-9x87-96gg-33w2
Sample removal did not work if only 1 sample file was present.
Crash on badly formatted RSS-feeds or readout during editing.
Only really run pre-queue-script when it is set.
Always report API paused status as a boolean.
Automatic aborting of jobs that can't be completed would sometimes not trigger.
Windows systems could enter standby state during downloading.
Some errors thrown by unrar were not caught.
Files and sockets were not always closed correctly.
Unwanted extension check was overly aggressively deleting folders

Upgrade notices

When upgrading from 2.x.x or older the queue will be converted. Job order,
settings and data will be preserved, but if you decide to go back to 2.x.x
your queue cannot be downgraded again. But you can restore the jobs by going
to the Status page and running Queue Repair.

Release Notes - SABnzbd 3.0.1

Bugfixes since 3.0.0

Basic Authentication resulted in crash.
Permissions were not set correctly when creating directories.
Windows: base SSL certificate bundle was not included.

About the new major version

We have been working for months to upgrade the SABnzbd code from Python 2 to Python 3.

the code. We also included a number of new features, listed below.

Big changes in 3.0.0

Python 3.5 and above are the only supported versions of Python.
Cache handling is greatly improved, resulting in more stable speeds on some systems.
Articles failing with CRC errors are now retried on other servers.
SFV files, even obfuscated, will be used for renaming when there are no par2 files.
Fully obfuscated RAR-sets with no verification files are detected and extracted.
Built-in internet bandwidth test.
Windows Service support was changed. The service will need to be reinstalled!
Documentation: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/sabnzbd-as-a-windows-service
The Windows installer is 64-bit only, for 32-bit please use the standalone package.

Other changes since 2.3.9

Files inside an NZB that are fully identical are now skipped automatically.
Folders of jobs that failed post-processing are renamed to _FAILED_.
Blocking of unwanted extensions that are directly inside an NZB.
In Python 3 OpenSSL 1.1.1 is used for Windows and macOS, as a result
newsservers manually set to RC4-MD5 cipher can no longer connect.
Documentation: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/ssl-ciphers
TLS1.3 support for newsserver connections.
SABYenc, par2 and unrar are now required to start downloading.
Growl-support was removed.
The smpl skin was removed.
Using the API with output=text to add NZB's will report the nzo_ids instead of ok.

Release Notes - SABnzbd 3.0.0 Alpha 2

About this new version

We have been working for months to upgrade the SABnzbd code from Python 2 to Python 3.
Although it might not sound like a big change, we had to rewrite almost every part of
the code. This also means that we might have introduced new bugs. We therefore encourage
you to let us know of any errors or strange behavior your might notice!
Unfortunately, this also means that we could not spend much time adding new features.
But we still managed to add a few, like extracting fully obfuscated RAR-sets.

Changes since 3.0.0 Alpha 1

Files and sockets were not always closed correctly.
Windows Service support was restored. It does require you to reinstall the service!
Documentation: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/sabnzbd-as-a-windows-service
On Windows the Universal C Runtime DLL's are no longer included, all versions of
Windows supported by Microsoft already have these DLL's.

Big changes in 3.0.0

Python 3.5 and above are the only supported versions of Python.
Fully obfuscated RAR-sets with no verification files are detected and extracted.

The Windows installer is 64-bit only, for 32-bit use the standalone package.
Growl-support was removed.
