nzbmatrix.com/nzbs.org/newznab automated movie downloader

[binhex]

I am struggling to get this working on my windows 7 pc.

I followed the instructions and renamed the file to config.ini

I am getting the following error:


D:\dist>"auto movie downloader.exe"
Error: NZBMatrix Search Page Function
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "auto movie downloader.py", line 1426, in
  File "auto movie downloader.py", line 42, in error_logging
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'F:\\Scripts\\Logs\\Errors\\auto_movie_do
wnloader_error.log'


I made sure my NZB Matrix username and password is correct, along with my file paths. I did however not alter the movie folder path for hd dir2 and sd dir2, because I keep my hd files in 1 folder and the same with my sd files.


Here is how I filled out the command.ini:

I am lost as to why I am having this problem and could really use some help. Thank You!

hi G7FHA, ok youve got a few problems here, firstly it looks like you havent correctly defined where your logs go to, thus your getting the ioerror, make sure you define all the folders for your logs (using double backslashes). ok next issue is that your not being consistent with using double backslashes for folder seperators, for example youve got:-

watch_dir="H:\Users\Living Room\AppData\Roaming\GrabIt\"

this is wrong it should be:-

watch_dir="H:\\Users\\Living Room\\AppData\\Roaming\\GrabIt\"

you MUST use double backslashes for all folder paths, you have the same issue for all of your paths so check them all ok?.

your next issue is that you havent removed my example movies_hd_dir2 and movies_sd_dir2, these are only in there as exmaple paths, please remove them otherwise the script may error.

ok and finally you havent defined your GoodGenre section, its just left as "My Good Genres", this again is left for you to fill in using the valid values.

have a go with implementing the above and let me know how you get on, good luck 

binhex.

Thanks for the help.

I did what you asked by adding double backslashes in all my path and specifiying the genres in the Good Definitions Section, but I am still getting the same error message.

May I ask:
- Is it ok to leave to leave the imdb favourites  definititions as is, without inputting names? If not how do I input the data "Martin Scorsese" or just "Scorsese"?

- Could the problem have to do with the fact my sd and hd movies are located on a server within my local network?

- Do I have to specify "Bad Titles"

- Is it ok to have dir2 for sd and hd as my completed directory? If I have a movie in the completed folder I would like the program to see it and not downlaod it again. I move out the completed files from within the completed folder every four days or so.

- If I need to delete hd_dir2 and sd_dir2 do I remove the entire line or just leave nothing between the ""

Here is my revised version of the the config file:

Sorry for being such a Noob and Thank you again for being so helpful!

Hey Binhex,

I was wondering if it's possible to have the script download the trailers from the imdb site?

Hey Binhex,

I was wondering if it's possible to have the script download the trailers from the imdb site?

hi thesystem, ok i like your suggestion and yes it is possible, there are two possible ways of doing it, firstly send the trailer url in the email notification, this would then allow you to click on the url to watch the streaming trailer without the need to download it, or the other option is to try and save the trailer down as a file.

my personal preference is the streaming option, otherwise you could be wasting vauable disk space with trailers you never watch not to mention bandwidth, what do you think?

[binhex]

hi G7FHA, replies in bold:-

- Is it ok to leave to leave the imdb favourites  definititions as is, without inputting names? If not how do I input the data "Martin Scorsese" or just "Scorsese"?

yes you can leave all the entries in the imdb favorites definitions as they are unless you want to use them, if you do then you would enter in the full persons name, for your example that would be "Martin Scorsese", you could put just the persons surname but this could potentially match against the wrong person so best to use their full name.

- Could the problem have to do with the fact my sd and hd movies are located on a server within my local network?

ok i dont know if the python module im using supports unc paths (thats paths that begin with \\), my advise would be to map your nas devices shares to a drive letter and then enter the mapped driver letter and path into the script.

- Do I have to specify "Bad Titles"

in a word, no, you only need to specify this if you want to exclude a movie(s) from matching, even if it has a high imdb score

- Is it ok to have dir2 for sd and hd as my completed directory? If I have a movie in the completed folder I would like the program to see it and not downlaod it again. I move out the completed files from within the completed folder every four days or so.

its not a good idea to have your completed folder as your dir2 for sd and hd, my script has multiple checks to make sure it doesnt download an already downloaded movie, it checks for an existing nzb file, it checks your completed folder, and it also checks your hd collection, if any of these match then it will skip, so my advise is to remove this

- If I need to delete hd_dir2 and sd_dir2 do I remove the entire line or just leave nothing between the ""

the entire line(s)

if you want to you can pm me your config.ini (minus your login and password details) and i will take a look over the whole thing for you.  ;D

My preference would be to save the trailer to the same folder the movie is in. That's because I use XBMC to watch my movies, and when there trailer is in the same folder, I can watch it via XBMC.

Maybe you could implement both options, and let the user decide with one they'd like to use by commenting sections in the config file or something?

hi agentgreen, thanks for posting the error, it looks like it was a compile error with py2exe, i have now included the missing module and re-uploaded, so please now try downloading again from the links in the first post, let me know if its still causing a problem ok?.

cheers,

Thanks for the quick response!

I downloaded the new files and it errored out differently

Here is my config file in relation to the logging:


ConsoleLogToFile="yes"

The log directories exist and I see SOME logs in there, specifically auto_movie_downloader_cache_nzbmatrix, auto_movie_downloader_console, auto_movie_downloader_warning. When I change ConsoleLogtoFile to "No" the script runs just fine and even downloads stuff!

However that brings me to my next question. The program runs and it starts finding movies to download, but they are not movies that SHOULD be downloading based on my settings (which I probably have wrong

However, when the script ran successfully, it immediately downloaded a movie called Howl (meaning sent it to Sabnzbd+), which based on IMDB is a Drama, and only scored a 6.8:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1049402/

Then I see this in the logs:



Status: Downloading Movie.....
Title: Howl 2010 LIMITED 720p BluRay X264 AMIABLE (diff diff group)
Debug: File System Check NZB Exists In NZB Folder
Debug: Exception Movie Exists In SD Downloaded Folder
Debug: IMDB Website Check Rating Below Threshold
Debug: IMDB Website Check Votes Below Threshold
Debug: IMDB Website Check Genre Is Not In Good List



Which would seem to me that it SHOULDN't have downloaded?

It continues on, and starts downloading a movie called First Sunday, which is a Comedy and rated 3.6:

I killed the program at this point.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks!

hi agentgreen, i think ive identified the issues, one was due to a close on the console log file, now corrected, the second issue was due to a boolean logic error on my part for the movies to replace feature, this has also now been corrected, download again from first post links and you should be good to go this time.

i do of course blame all bugs on too much beer over xmas 

let me know how you get on.

excellent, thats what i like to hear  . one thing i was going to mention is that you have defined your preferred movies as follows:-

#define the preferred genres (use | to seperate items) - will download movie if GoodPreferredGenre AND GoodPreferredRatings match
#valid values:- Action, Adventure, Animation, Biography, Comedy, Crime, Documentary, Drama, Family, Fantasy, Film-Noir, Game-Show, History, Horror, Music, Musical, Mystery, News, Reality-TV, Romance, Sci-Fi, Short, Sport, Talk-Show, Thriller, War, Western
GoodPreferredGenre="Action|Comedy|Horror|Thriller|Sci-Fi"

#define the minimum rating for preferred genres (must be less than GoodGeneralRatings) - will download movie if GoodPreferredGenre AND GoodPreferredRatings match
#valid values:- 0.1 to 9.9
GoodPreferredRatings=8.0

although this is fine and wont cause an error its not really how you should be using the preferred section, the idea is to give your preferred genres a lower rating value to capture movies with genres you particularly like, for example im a sci-fi buff so i use the GoodPreferredRatings setting to have a lower rating value than the GoodGeneralRatings value, snipet from my own config.ini:-

#----------------- IMDB Good Definitions --------------------

#define the accepted genres (use | to seperate items)

#----------------- IMDB Preferred Definitions --------------

#define the minimum rating for preferred genres (must be less than GoodGeneralRatings) - will download movie if GoodPreferredGenre AND GoodPreferredRatings match
#valid values:- 0.1 to 9.9
GoodPreferredRatings=6.5

i hope this makes sense, and im glad your enjoying the script

It totally makes sense. Thanks for that, I will modify my config.ini accordingly.

Thanks again!
