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

[Homerboy]

You can add the show directly through Sick Beard.
For example, I would just tell Sick Beard to add a show found at:

Code: Select all

Z:\New Show Name

It will automatically create the folder for you, then you can set all the episodes to backlog and away you go.

Hope that made sense

perfect sense

Can anyone help set up the SickBeard source to run at startup on my QNAP NAS please?

I can start it via python /SickBeard.py but if I close the terminal window it stops of course.

Any hints please?

Edit:

OK I have almost cracked it using Ainers script, but my QNAP doesnt support update-rc.d command.

Is there an alternative for sudo update-rc.d sickbeard.sh start 30 2 3 4 5 . stop 14 0 1 6 .

I set SB up the other day - I am very impressed!  Thanks for the hard work

I have the SB/SabNZBD+ intergration working just fine with SB handling the folder renaming, etc...

My only question/issue is:  Is it possible to copy all files (.nfo, .srr, .srt, etc) to the TV show directory?  There are some shows I need the subtitles for.  I do see the option to not delete the folder, but that would require a manual copy... anyway to have this automated?

Thanks for the great app!

I have it running on my Synology NAS. I'm generally rather lazy, so I just threw the Sick Beard startup command at the end of the SABnzbd startup script - it now starts whenever SABnzbd does. If you have SABnzbd running on the NAS, you could do the same...

'Course, the next time I update SABnzbd, that modified startup file will likely get replaced and I'll probably be on here complaining about Sick Beard no loner starting up until I remember that I need to reedit that file. I'll worry about that tomorrow, tho.

OK I figured it out…thanks for the pointer.

I added:

/bin/sleep 5
/sbin/daemon_mgr sickbeard1 start “python /share/Public/Sick/SickBeard.py –quiet”

to sabnzbd.sh.

sabnzbd.sh is located in /share/HDA_DATA/.qpkg/SABnzbd+.

I added it so appropriate sabnzbd.sh section looks like:

# starting sabnzbd…
/sbin/chroot_init “/etc/init.d/sabnzbd-main.sh” start
RETVAL=$?
/bin/sleep 5
/sbin/daemon_mgr sickbeard1 start “python /share/Public/Sick/SickBeard.py –quiet”

Thanks for making this, everything seems to fail now with the end of tvnzb.com and newzbin, Sick Beard has stepped smoothly into the gap.

I have a question about the way it works though, do I have to make folders for my series before Sick Beard will download them? I really don't store TV I just watch it then delete the whole folder, unless I'm away then I let them build up.

Thanks for any help.

i don't know if this question has already been answered (can't seem to search in this topic) but can anyone help me with this?

it's trying to download a south park episode from nzbs.org

500 Internal Server Error

i got this message in the console
15:06:48 INFO::CP Server Thread-3 :: Sending NZB to SABnzbd

this is my sab url in settings.
http://192.168.1.5:8080

port looks numeric to me


sabnzbdplus: 0.5.0
sickbeard: alpha build 446
win7 ultimate

also:

the scraper can't find some dutch series but there's no way to skip them.
so now i let it add a wrong show but there's no way to delete it from the list.

great stuff this script, btw

Each show has to be in its own folder, yes. If you just didn't post-process them then you could still have the episodes all sit in your SAB download dir if you want, but each show would have to have its own empty folder to be added.

Jim: As mentioned in the config it is just IP:Port that is required, no http://. And to delete a show just click on it and click delete at the top.

[Jim]

awesome. it's working now.
thx

Can you post the excerpt from your sickbeard.log where it actually snatched each of those files? This is probably a bug in the cache code of one of the providers.

I believe this to be the relevant log... let me know if it's not.

Thanks for looking into this!

As far as I can tell the problem was probably a temporary problem with NZBs.org. SB searched for the episode in any quality, and got two results (HD and SD). Then it searched for it in HD only and got zero results, so it assumed that both of the initial results were SD. Why the search for the HD episode returned zero results I don't know - if you look at the results now it has the HD episode in it. So my assumption is that at the time you search the HD episode wasn't in the HD category on NZBs.org and thus wasn't known to be HD. Let me know if it happens again. And this problem is probably fixed in alpha2 FYI :0)

[midgetspy]

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?
