Ok, that explains the behavior. Guess I'll have to rename the files when each are downloaded.
Thanks for the explanation.

What I try to accomplish is to get the garbled filenames to real names, sort them, find the first archive file (e.g. rar) and then stream it's content. What I have done so far is to generate a minimal NZB with just one segment for each file + the full par2 file (based on a "full" NZB). Dow...

I'm trying to write a script similar to https://gist.github.com/pleo1/5793049 (but using SAB) that renames files in a nzb based on the "real" name provided in SABnzbd. However, when I create a new nzb it seems as if SAB is reading the subject when fetching the first article and renames it ...

When reading e bit more it seems as if the standard for a GET request is somewhat vague. The encoding specified in the urllib2 request is only for the response.
Anyway, encoding to latin-1 does the trick.

Aha, thanks, *sigh* I really hate these different encodings. I'll dig further.

Thanks! Something like you do in https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/blob ... ing.py#L45 would work then..

In this case I build the url by
since urllib.qoute_plus doesnt like unicode characters.
How would I url encode the url before sending it to urllib2?

BTW, thanks for the help!

The calling program is supposed to add headers specifying the encoding. Aha. I use this: def _sabResponse(self, url): try: req = urllib2.Request(url) response = urllib2.urlopen(req) except: responseMessage = "unable to load url: " + url else: log = response.read() response.close() if &quo...

I have some issues when trying to use the "Add by file path" api. Then documentation states: api?mode=addlocalfile&name=full/local/path/to/file.ext Adding the path, "C:\home\users\Örn\the.nzb" in utf-8 and then urlencoded api?mode=addlocalfile&name=C%3A%5Chome%5Cusers%5C%...

I grab the nzo_id by looping thought the queue asking for the nzb name def nzo_id(self, nzbname): url = self.baseurl + "&mode=queue&start=START&limit=LIMIT&output=xml" doc = _load_xml(url) sab_nzo_id = None if doc: if doc.getElementsByTagName("slot"): for slot in ...

I have two points. First is to make it possible for external tools to manipulate files just as possible in the web interface (e.g. in a XBMC addon or a android app). Second, in regards to streaming, especially XBMC has some issues with mkv's where both the first and last rar is needed to trick it to...

Great news! As long as it stays I guess it could be left under hood

Just wanted to make a api request for what we discussed here . Basically and API for managing the sab_nzf items of a individual download just as they can be manipulated today in the web interface.
This would give external apps the same possibilities as the web interface.

Will the "allow_streaming = 1" go into the official documentation or will it stay experimental?
The nzbs.org addon for XBMC is totally dependent on this...
