Operating System Support for SABnzbd with UsenetServer

To operate SABnzbd alongside a UsenetServer subscription, your system needs:

• Python 3.8 or later with pip

• Python Cheetah library installed through pip

• par2 and unrar tools

• Optional: yEnc decoding via Python

While SABnzbd packages are readily available for Windows and macOS, support for other platforms such as NAS devices often depends on third-party sources or manual setup.

Lower-spec systems without adequate memory—especially those under 256MB with no swap—may crash during heavier Usenet activity.

SABnzbd is incompatible with Android because Python does not run on that platform.
