nzbmatrix NZB url

Post by alienvenom »

i seem to remember a previous version of sabnzbd being able to import urls from nzbmatrix (both zip and not zip). however, using 0.5.0.X it appears to not let me do this anymore. i verified the options, both the username and api key are available under index sites.

The RSS reader is quite capable of doing it.
You do need to use the correct URL.
This is the general form:

Code: Select all

https://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-download.php?id=999999
or

Code: Select all

https://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-download.php?id=99999&name=Fancy%20Name&nozip=1
And you need to have a VIP account!

How about the "add URL" box? Can we use this for nzbmatrix urls? Or is it only supported on RSS feeds?

It works with the URL as shown in my previous message.

0.4.12 did not support adding nzbmatrix by the url. Was that the version you were using when you mention previous version?

In any case, just add the url in your browser for the report as shypike says.

You are all correct. I found out the issue as well.

NZBmatrix seems to time out sometimes when you download via api-nzb-download.php.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. There should be code in sabnzbd to retry it until it works...

http://nzbmatrix.com/api-nzb-download.p ... apikey=YYY

Try it if you feel like it...

incorrect, it will only work in an authenticated browse and requires cookies. since sabnzbd dodn't have the cookie set, it will fail on shypike's url as well.

0.5.0beta3 and below had a bug where connections to nzbmatrix only have a 4 second timeout. This seemed to be fine for all sites apart nzbmatrix where it would timeout (we do already do retries btw).

This is likely what you were having problems with, Beta4 has an increased timeout so these issues should not be seen.

We support any nzbmatrix url with a ?id= or &id= in it, such as http://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-details.php?id=000000&hit=1 it gets converted to the api-nzb-download.php url
