Hi,

Haven't come up with a good name for the program yet :P , but here is what it does:

1. Fetches your personal bookmarked tv series from episodeworld.com
2. Then searches for the most recently aired episode of the shows on newzbin.com and checks the different releases, by default downloads the hd720p/hdtv version but will fallback to lower quality if not found.
4. Checks if sabnzbd+ is running, if not it retries at the next scheduled run.
5. Keeps record of downloaded episodes to avoid duplicates.
6. Adds them to sabnzbd+

Uses the tasksheduler library(CodeProject: A New Task Scheduler Class Library for .NET. Free source code and programming help) which was created by Dennis Austin.
This allows for the task scheduling feature.

Download link:

Version 0.04 *updated 16-08-08*

http://www.file-upload.net/download-104 ... 4.zip.html

Changelog:

1. Bug fixes

Documentation

Requirements:

1. An episodeworld.com account and some bookmarked tv shows there.

Now for a the step by step guide:

1. Run Epworld grabber config.exe
2. Insert the ip address to where sabnzbd+ is running(if local enter 127.0.0.1)
3. Then go to EPisodeWorld and copy the "Your Personal Bookmarks" link and put it in the config program, should look something like this:

EPisodeWorld RSS feed: Personal Bookmarks of ""

4. Set the time you want the output window to stay open when finished.

This way it automates the series download and you don't have to bother checking for them, just have to bookmark your shows on episodeworld and it will download the recent episodes when they air.

Problems with the following series:

Doctor who <-- different seasons now and then on newzbin(sometimes 1x or 20x), need to find a pattern first then will fix this.
Family guy and American dad <- different seasons numbers on newzbin, releases still keep a 1 season difference because both shows didn't air because of their cancellation.(will be fixed in next version)

Isn't tvnzb.com just as convenient?

You mean NZB-TV or tvnzb.com?

Can tvnzb.com tell sabnzbd what shows I want it to download and what quality to download it in?

Usually tvnzb.com titles contain show name, season code, episode code and resolution.
It a question of setting the right selection terms.
Read the Wiki-page on RSS.

Ahh
Can it protect me against duplicates? What happens if SABnzbd is turned off for one day and the show that aired that day is no longer in the rss feed nzbtv provides? :(

Hi,

Just tried this program (sound like a usefull program) but I noticed that it tried to contact a german server using a EU domain extension.
Can someone clarify why this is done?

The dns is wow-drachenreiter.eu

I would expect it only to contact the episodeworld.com site.

Duplicates will be properly checked again in 0.4.3.
The answer to the other question you know.

Yes it does only contact episodeworld and newzbin.com, that is the server host name of episodeworld.
If you do a trace to episodeworld.com you will see that their server is called wow-drachenreiter.eu.
