Move files after downloaded

Post by trapperjohn »

Hi,
I am using SABnzbd on a Synology server. After a TV show download is unrared I want to have the file move to its specific folder on the server. The unrar works correctly, just need to have it move.
What would be the recommended way of doing this. I checked through the app and did not find a way to do this. I tried categories, but was not able to get it to work.
Thank you,
Bryan

In categories you can setup a specific delivery folder for a category.
Please not that you need to use internal paths of the Synology server.
So not the share paths you use from your Windows PC.

Hi,
Ok I have set up the categories I am using SABnzbd on the Synology so that makes it easier.
Do I need to use a script to have the files move? I am trying to download a TV show and then have the mkv file moved into its tv sub directory on the Synology.
Thank you for your help,
Bryan

You can use the functions in the Sorting section, this can move and rename TV shows based on their name/season etc.
This should help you: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/configuration/1.1/sorting
