[WINDOWS] SABSync - TV Show Syncing

[markus101]

Yeah, that was the fix... It was an issue with TheTvDb's new caching system, but it wasn't worth the wait for them to possibly fix it and since they made no mention that they would when they confirmed the issue that another user was having it was easier to fix it now.

Any chance of fixing the newzbin RSS issue?  Would be a great app with that support, surely can't be too tricky to repair?

[markus101]

Last time I checked there were two issues, one being the download link that was sent to SAB wasn't the link to the NZB, but to details. The other is that the quality is not the the title field (as it is with most other providers). The RSS library I use is pretty simple and wasn't able to deal with this. The 2nd issue is the hardest to overcome, if I get some time to dig into it further I will, but without a premium account testilng is a problem; but I may need one another project I'm working on, so I may end up havingaccess again.

I'll be sure to post if I get something working or available for testing.

First issue is simple to resolve you can simply append /nzb to the URL where provider is newzbin.

2nd issue is understandably tricky.

I managed to get it to do what I wanted with nzbs.org but it limits the timescale of the saved searches rss feed which means its ok for new episodes, but not great or backfilling.

I think the issue is with the config file (SQLite can be such a pain sometimes).

The config file currently contains this block:

Code: Select all

<system.data>
    <DbProviderFactories>
      <remove invariant="System.Data.SQLite" />
      <add name="SQLite Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.SQLite"
           description=".Net Framework Data Provider for SQLite"
           type="System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory, System.Data.SQLite" />
    </DbProviderFactories>
  </system.data>

but that block should be commented out to look like this:

Code: Select all

<!--<system.data>
    <DbProviderFactories>
      <remove invariant="System.Data.SQLite" />
      <add name="SQLite Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.SQLite"
           description=".Net Framework Data Provider for SQLite"
           type="System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory, System.Data.SQLite" />
    </DbProviderFactories>
  </system.data>-->

Which was working in 0.9.9.6, I'm not sure how this slipped in... If you can confirm that it works with the configuration change I will upload a new version of 0.9.9.7 with the proper configuration.

Here is a pastebin link with the complete configuration file if it's easier to copy+paste the entire file.

Sorry im not sure which config file you mean, I have opened up my user file in appdata and it has the correct code already, i also opened the sabsync.exe config file which also had the correct code that you showed me....still get the same error as soon as i open sabsync....is nobody else getting an error? I have tried it on a fresh Server 2008 R2 SP1, and on Windows 7. both with dotnet4

I had to uncomment that section to get it to work btw :-)

I had to uncomment that section to get it to work btw :-)

from which file?

[daniel_owen_uk]

sabsync.exe.config

Before it was popping up with all sorts of errors.

I also had to uncomment that section. Everything working nicely, only problem now is I can't open the screen yet it still runs.

When i run the program... it goes straight to taskbar, clicking on it doesn't pop up the screen but instead just keeps it minimized. Kinda annoying since I always check upcomming so i know what is expected to be added.

Any ideas?


EDIT: Fixed... just reinstalled

Just a quick query.

SABSync doesn't seem to want to download X factor Australia

Code: Select all

Verifying 'The X Factor Australia S03E16'
'The X Factor Australia' is being watched.
Quality is not wanted

Now i know in "shows" tab you can select the shows it picks up and select the quality, thing is it doesn't show X Factor Australia in the list and I'm assuming this is why it's uncertain of quality.

Could it be because the show's name differs to the one on TVDB?

Also a friend of mine is also running sabsync, but it's not syncing the shows he watches. I checked his log, cant remeber exactly what is says but there were a few lines of errors when it tried to sync a show, making reference to something similar to this C:\Users\mark.mcdowall\Dropbox\Visual Studio 2010\sabscripts\SABSync\SABSync\Database.cs:line 117.

Maybe not the exact line as such but definitely has a similar error.

Looks like my notifications for this topic was lost, sorry about that. I haven't spent much time on SABSync in some time as I was busy working on a much better replacement with a friend, NzbDrone. I highly recommend that you take a look at it and move over.
