Oh well.

What is the value of the Permissions field? There is only a field called "Permissions for completed downloads" which is 777 A value means that SABnzbd will try to apply those and complain when it fails. Empty means that SABnzbd will silently try to set permissions conform your user accoun...

If you tell SABnzbd to adjust permissions on the end result of a download, you do so in Config->Folders. SABnzbd will start setting permissions starting at the "Completed Download Folder". What are your settings for permissions and folder paths? I don't think I've set anything about that,...

I'm afraid I don't understand your comment.

My question is why does it need permissions for files it shouldn't be touching?

I'm getting an error like:

ERROR: Cannot change permissions of /volume1/Dir1/Dir2/File

But thing is sabnzbd shouldn't be messing with that file in the first place, so why does it need access?

Ah, I thought that field was just to display the name, I didn't realize you could change it.

Thanks!

You can rename the job in the queue.

Yes thanks shypike, I found it when you told me where to look

Have something coming from sickbeard placed in a specific location.

Ideally have something coming from sickbeard placed in LocationA and some in LocationB

It's up to SickBeard to send along a category that matches your category having the S2B script attached. I think by default it sends the "TV" category, so make sure you have that one. Don't know what you mean by a s2b script ? Is there somewhere to check it is "TV" as a category...

Is there an indexer tag to denote "sickbeard" which can be placed in Categories to have it go in that folder?

Not sure about that design decision

But thanks, and thank you for your patience shypike

Say I get a something.nzb This then usually produces SomethingFolder/SomethingFile ie, always a folder with something in it, most of the time I don't really want this. What are the ways to get rid of this "parent" folder? Only using sorting? because it seems there aren't enough sorting opt...

"Should you choose to..."

Thanks for your patience shypike!
