Re: Sick Beard (or CouchPotato, even): Coupla Stoopid Questi

No de-mixing etc. just renames the downloaded and extracted file according to your preferred naming convention. Not over-kill... It just downloads without user intervention, and sometimes finds that release you didn't even know was due to aire yet. It is designed as a server so to speak, and certain...

Re: Multiple Versions of Movies from CouchPotato

Look in CouchPotato forums.. This is a known issue and is not a SABnzbd issue. Reasons for multiple downloads are: 1: on snatching the release and sending to SABnzbd, cps does not receive confirmation from SABnzbd in time (a timeout error occurs) so it assumes no download happened and moves on to th...

Re: On download fail call post processing script

Thanks shypike. This request originated from the use of my sabToCouchPotato script. This script basically calls the renamer via api when status == 0 and any other status will trigger the snatch of the next best release. So the proposed implementation in 0.7.5 will work beautifully. As you have seen ...

Re: Better sab & couchpotato/sickbeard integration

For CouchPotato there is regular api polling of sabnzbd that will trigger the next best release to be downloaded on failure. Due to some heavy resource loading when trying api calls etc when downloading large movies, this may not work properly. In this case, use my sabToCouchPotato post process scri...

Re: 0.7.4 slow to respond to api add file

Ok, tests with an older version of CPS have indicated that 0.7.4 works fine ;)

As far as my system bogging down with a large download queue.. Well... It is a small arm processor ;)

0.7.4 slow to respond to api add file

Recently there have been issues in CouchPotato where the same movie is downloaded numerous times. The cause appears to be the comma between SABnzbd and CouchPotatoServer. When CPS sends the nzb via api, sab starts downloading, but CPS shows a timeout error waiting for a response (timeout = 60 s). To...

Re: Api call for history is crashing sabnzbd

There is another fix going in to CPS as well. Instead of requesting the list for each movie marked as snatched, the request will be made once and then the results will be passed for each snatched movie. In other words, worst case scenario now is that CPS will ask for the queue and last 15 history re...

Re: Api call for history is crashing sabnzbd

Ruud has implemented a limit of 15. This is in the develop branch and should go to master at he next merge.

Also, in CPS settings, renamer, set Run Every (advanced option) to a greater time. This will reduce the frequency of calls.

Re: [WINDOWS] How do I create a basic script?

To be safe I would use @echo on c: cd "\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Downloads\complete" XCOPY * /E /Y /C D:\movies\ DEL /S /Q * RMDIR /S /Q . Using "" prevents issues with the spaces in the directory name. I see the first post indicates this was tried, so pr...

Re: Where do the files go after the 'complete' folder?!?!

An .exe file that disappears once clicked on?

I would recommend running a virus scan before anything else. Were you trying to download an application?

Re: Movie Renaming

Try CouchPotatoServer as a movie version of SickBeard, or configure the sort option in SABnzbd to perform renaming for category "movies" and always set movie downloads to use that category.

Re: How do you rename?

Click on the download and you gat a screen showing the progress and order of every file etc. you can make changes, including changing the name at the top. Make sure you save after making the changes and it should take you back to the download queue.

Re: Having trouble with Sickbeard and Sabnzbd+

SickBeard grabbed an nzb that was marked as comedy bang bang S01, so in theory this should be the entire first season. To avoide the "out of servers retention" issue make sure you set the same server retention in SickBeard search criteria and in SABnzbd server settings. To force Sickbeard ...

Re: Error on PostProcessing Script

How did you install SABnzbd? If you installed a "package" then you would need to find out the update method for that package. If you installed git and did a git pull, then you should be able to do another git pull to update to the latest.
