Sick Beard (ALPHA) - Download/sort/rename episodes, XBMC/growl integration, more

[drak0]

No the master branch is bugfixes only for now, alpha2 is its own branch at the moment. The CSI log you posted only shows a single HD download, I'm not sure what the problem is there?

Ok, I'm now on your alpha2 branch!  In the mean time, here is a log that shows both downloads... sorry for not showing both before, the log file is a bit unwieldy

Thanks, SB is pretty great and a nice upgrade to what I was using before to manage TV shows...

OK, that one is another freak accident... lol. For "Best" quality it searches for "Any" quality, and then if it finds one it tries re-searching for HD and downloads it if it finds one. The second search timed out in your case, so it thought there was no HD download and downloaded one of the "Any" releases which turned out to be HD anyway. I *think* that will be solved in alpha2 though.

Not that it matters too much to me (or the functionality), but are you supposed to see 2 lines per item snagged in the history?
The first row is where it was snagged from (what website) the 2nd is the group that released the title:

2010-04-17 01:28:13  SHOW NAME - 1x05  Downloaded  2HD    SD
2010-04-17 01:12:22         SHOW NAME - 1x05  Snatched          NZBs (this is an icon)   SD

using latest alphpa2 code from git.  Does "Rename episodes" work?  What does it do?

I have an issue right now with "The Pacific" - when using newzbin, it was able to find the shows just fine because they were named correctly with 1x03 format.  Using nzbs they are named like "The.Pacific.Pt.III" instead of "The Pacific 1x03" like on newzbin.  My idea was to change the name so it could match "Pt. III" ?

Thanks!

Hmm, SB gets The Pacific every week for me, the only thing it wont do is renaming it - exactly because of the naming (III v 1x03).. But I completely understand why the naming would cause an issue.

is there a way to block certain NZBs?
some very unfunny SOBs seem to enjoy posting crappy SD episodes as HD on nzbs.org

it would be great if you could block certain posters or release groups.

Another error msg for you:

2010-04-18 13:19:30.533561 SEARCH :: Invalid XML returned by TVNZB: (, SyntaxError('mismatched tag: line 10, column 2',), ) - mismatched tag: line 10, column 2

The tvnzb site seems to be dead now, hence the xml feed is bound to be crap.  I would suggest you move it to the lowest in your list if not disable it completely.  I don't see this is as a problem with SickBeard.

Ah yes, I read TVNZB as TVDB as I am having probs adding shows.

After about 5 shows added to the database I get an error:

Unable to add South Park due to an error with TVDB

also:

http://www.thetvdb.com/api/9DAF49C96CBF ... 141/en.xml: [Errno 28] No space left on device

2010-04-17 19:53:28.267071 QUEUE-ADD :: Unable to add show due to an error with TVDB: Could not connect to server http://www.thetvdb.com/api/9DAF49C96CBF ... 261/en.xml: [Errno 28] No space left on device: 'cache/tvdb/www.thetvdb.com,api,9DAF49C96CBF8DAC,series,129261,en.xml,b7d1d8d3510b96fa20ca6a5b928d6659'

All fixed...the cache folder was missing from my install.

Sick Beard is great. Nice Work.

But looking for a new feature.

I would like to find a way to scrap http://localhost:8081/comingEpisodes and covert to rss feed and add the feed to XBMC.

One of my worst pet peeves is not knowing when a new show airs.

I know feature requests will be denied in general but I hoped there maybe a python script that may help with this.

TIA

while that sucks, it's not due to the space. I have the same naming convention...

Are you running on Windows?

[midgetspy]

Yikes.

Are /share/HDA_DATA/Qdownload/sabnzbd/complete/TV and /share/Qdownload/sabnzbd/complete/TV the same folder? What is your TV Download Dir set to?

It looks like you are post processing an episode that has already been sorted... this is NOT allowed with the current SB post processing script (as is noted on the post processing wiki page). My guess as to what happened is that you tried to post process an episode that was already inside its show folder and have "Keep Folder" unchecked in the options, which makes SB delete the folder containing the downloaded episode. So SB deleted the folder after processing which happens to be your whole show dir. I'm not sure how this would happen to any show that you haven't downloaded a new ep for unless you also told it to automatically scan & process your whole TV folder or something...

Before SB deletes anything it makes sure it's not one of your show folders so I'm not sure how that could fail unless the answer to the first question in this post is "Yes". If so you've basically circumvented all the built in protections so it thinks it's moving your episodes somewhere else and deleting the old folder. I don't know what I can do to prevent that.

Also it is definitely not the spaces.

EDIT: We can continue discussing this on the google code ticket.

I like this product very much, it is a great asset since the tvnzb rss feed is no more.

Maybe possible to add a way to add the entry by TBDbase entry-ID ?

Thanks in advance.!!!

Improving the show adding will be coming soon in alpha2, yep.
