Bug found in NZBMATRIX.COM handling

Post by shypike »

We have discovered a subtle problem in the handling of RSS feeds from nzbmatrix.com.

All works fine if your feed URL looks like this:
http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?subcat=6

However the is a problem when your feed URL looks like this:
http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?page=download&subcat=6

In this case nzbmatrix adds an empty username and apikey to the NZB links.
SABnzbd sees the keywords for username and apikey and assumes it doesn't need
to supply the stored username and apikey.
SABnzbd doesn't notice that the keywords have no values.
Please avoid these URLs and use the first form.

BTW: it's OK to add the correct username and apikey like this:
http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?page=d ... ablablabla

We'll fix this in the next release.
