Step 1: Configure PowerPosting
4 steps required to configure the tool before posting
First, access the configuration interface as follows :
Then, enter the server informations by which you wish to post. To make your choice, we refer you to our page comparative servers. The information to enter are those who are sent to you when you registered on the server.
Tab 2, page headers. Simply enter your username under which you wish to post and an email address eventually.
Then, indicate the group on which you wish to post. For this, enter each group to hand, over the add button. Attention to the spelling of the group.
Finally, configure the program behavior, and the maximum number of lines per item (3000 should be sufficient for most servers. Otherwise slightly lower figure).
Step 2: Preparing Files
When downloading files, (Grabit chapter ), you've noticed that there are additional files (NZB, NFO, PAR2) and the file has been split into subparts.
Some files will be generated by PowerPosting, for others you will have to deal with it.
It is recommended for further operations to create a separate folder reserved for the post to not get lost with all the files that will be generated.
1. Cutting the file in RAR files
Select the file to post, right click and choose 'Add to Archive ...'
Then, set winrar as follows:
Note the volume size (here 15 000 000 bytes -> 15 MB).
Winrar will generate as many file 15MB depending on the size of your cutting.
2. Creating NFO files
An NFO file contains information about the archive to which it is affiliated. This file is not mandatory, it is recommended when you want to associate information archive to download such as a serial number or a warning.
It also informs on the quality of a video compression ratio, film genre, language, number of RAR files associated ...
If you want more information, NFO Creator can generate these files. The tutorials are available on the web to teach you how this tool.
3. Creating PAR2 files
It is necessary to create the PAR2 files before posting. These files control data integrity. These files are generated with QuickPar after clipping files.
Launch QuickPar and click 'Add File'. You get the following window:
Then click 'Create'
3. Post files
We are approaching the goal. You will notice that we have not yet created the NZB and SFV files. These files are created by PowerPosting directly.
In PowerPosting, go to File-> Add files to post ... then select all files you have generated (except the original course)
Then click 'Open'.
Another window opens asking you some last informations.
The model title: just replace the (????) by the title of the file that you post.
Then in the tab Group of News, select the server you wish to post to :
Finally, in the Check tab, select the boxes below to generate NZB and SFV files :
The files will be generated locally and then sent to the server.
Finally, we are. Click OK.
The list of files displays in the main window PowerPosting. At this point you have 2 options. You can set the start of the post at a certain time, the toolbar, clicking on the icon clock. Or simply start the post directly (File menu).
Note :
Before each file, its status is displayed :
Q : waiting list
