Thanks,
Rolling

sure!, an example of the files/folders i use is as follows:-

#put your own folder names below as specified in sabnzbd+
watch_dir="H:\\Downloads\\Usenet\\SABnzbd\\Watched"
nzb_dir="H:\\Downloads\\Usenet\\SABnzbd\\NZBs"
completed_dir="H:\\Downloads\\Usenet\\SABnzbd\\Completed"

#put your own folder names below to specify the location of your movie collection
movies_dir1="G:\\Videos\\H264 Format\\HD Rips\\Movies\\Scene"

#put your own folder and filenames below to specify location of log files
mainlog="F:\\Scripts\\Logs\\autodl_hd_main.log"
tracelog="F:\\Scripts\\Logs\\autodl_hd_traceback.log"

note the double slashes are for windows users, if your a linux user then obviously the format will be different, let me know how you get on.

Hmm..

It also seems to finish prematurely.

And then it's done.. Thats definately not the end of the RSS

Sorry for the double, I thought it'd be easier to seperate the two issues.

right i think i know what the issue is here, the script i put up was for hd movies i.e. bluray and hddvd material not xvid's thus its not downloading due to my filters saying the size is too small and the format isnt correct.

just changed my post, decided to make things easy and post a modified script for xvid's, hope this works for you, please let me know how you get on.

binhex.

link to modified script for xvid downloads:- http://pastebin.com/f7fd6c324

It look likes a good script to me but he doesn't let sabnzbd download the files  he says:

Status downloading movie
But when i look in sabnzbd there aint a movie in it to download
Do i need to configure something in RSS?
I really dont get it

Please let me know

Thanks

@binhex

I kinda figured, but not everyone can afford to get HD
Thats heaps better now. I got it to add one to queue (2cd's 1.6gb~)
But It won't download yes man, nor anything else in the 800mb~ range

I'm guessing isgoodsize regex needs more tweaking? I don't understand it
Do you think it would be possible to search the title for certain strings to exclude?
Like.. I might not want all dvdrips but I don't want cams. so search title for CAM or whatever if it returns true then move along? Just a suggestion, it's probably alot of work.

oh and @djoeney
Check the watched folder in the script 1. Looks like that (double slashes)
2. Is the same as the Watched folder in sabnzbd -> config -> Folders


Also, is there anyway to prevent the python window from either showing, or stealing focus?
There was a similar post elsewhere, but I don't think it would apply.

Code: Select all

                #This is set to download movies with file sizes from 4GB to 19GB (x264 format)
                if re.compile("[8-9][0-9][0-9] MB|1.[0-9][0-9] GB", re.IGNORECASE).search(check_movie_size):

yep that regex is incorrect, my error, easiest solution is to download the new xvid friendly script ive just posted up, ive just tested it and it works fine with movies from sizes 700MB to 2.5 GB :-)

personally i just schedule the task to run in windows (using task scheduler) that way its invisible and doesn't show, the nice output from the script is really only so i can debug issues if the script doesnt download a movie i think it should of downloaded :-)

Wow you reply fast. Jolly good!

That xvid friendly one you posted produced an error, so heres my (working) one.

See, I schedule the tv autodownload script that way.. and it shows..
I'll schedule this one too and see if it's invisible but i doubt it?
Your task scheduler is magic

ok bug fixed, i had left in an additional downloaded dir check (my collection spans multiple drives) and thus it was erroring on this, i have also just coded in your request, check out the section called isGoodFormat in the script below, i have set it to download all formats excluding "cam", you can easily tweak this by removing/adding format types.

enjoy!.

binhex.

p.s the script doesn't show when running as a scheduled task, at least in vista it doesnt, would actually be surprised if it did show, hmm wierd!.

You left in your userid. might want to remedy that

Thanks though, testing now. I'll edit this
Works 100%
Thats really great.

BTW about the scheduler I'm using XP so that -could- be it.
I'll look into it.


EDIT:
I've found a solution.
rename the python script into .pyw
Also, make sure you  callit directly -not through python.exe
ie. 'RUN: E:\Python26\rss_tv.py'
NOT
'RUN E:\Python26\python.exe E:\Python26\rss_tv.py'

Doing it the other way just doesn't work. Tested.

EDIT2:
Solution 2:
Use 'pythonw' instead of Python to launch the script.
so.
'RUN E:\Python26\pythonw.exe E:\Python26\rss_tv.py'

You probably all knew that 

Nice ninja edit, but no-one fools the f5master.   ;)

damn, forgot to remove the user id, thanks for the heads up on that, its now removed :-).

yep that would explain why you were seeing a windows and i wasn't , as i was calling the script directly and not the python.exe. glad its all now working well, let me know if you have any further feature requests and also if you get any error messages i would also be interested to see what they are.

one thing i thought i would point out is that now your downloading pre dvd material you may come across the problem that imdb doesnt have either any or enough votes and thus the movie will get skipped so you might need the minimum number of votes reducing to say 1,000, as its currently set at 5,000.

Valid point, thanks. I'll see how it goes, and may even go back to dvdrips only.

As far as bugs - any reason why it doesn't read through to the end of the rss?
It that a feature?

It always stops at the same movie, and that movie seems to trigger every halt there is, whether thats a bug or not, not sure. But yeah.. new movies have arrived in the feed, but it still stops at that same movie.

strange, hmm it should read the entire rss feed, can you check your tracelog (location defined in script) and see what it says in there, it should be logging any errors, also what does the script say if you run it from a command line are there any error messages displayed?.

I've been trying to get this script to run for a little while now. I've tried pretty much everyone on here. The movie script from Binhex works for me. But I haven't got the TV script to run. Using the latest as of writing, revision 12.  From : http://my-svn.assembla.com/svn/SABnzbd_ ... ownloader/ It runs and searches but keeps returning "FAILED PROCESSING" I'm on win xp

TV Script thread is here now
http://forums.sabnzbd.org/index.php?topic=1786.0

And for the record, I couldn't get that one to work either. I'm using 0.88 though.
