SABnzbd Forums

Hey guys,

I am trying to find a way to have sabnzbd update xbmc after a download is finished, like sickbeard does e.g.
I read some topics about scripts, but i cannot manage to find a solution.

I am on osx mountain lion
Sabnzbd 7.10
Xbmc frodo final

Amy help would be highly appreciated!

Is XBMC running all the time? My setup involves invoking xbmc periodically and it automatically sweeps through a folder where all the media is and it picks up the new stuff added. When I finish watching stuff, I delete the entry from the library+the file.

Yes xbmc is running all the time indeed.
I have installed Watchdog (xbmc addon) a while ago, and while this is working as it should, it kept scanning all the folders on my hdd (movies, tv shows etc.) instead of just the folder which i added content to.
But fortunately, Watchdog has got an update yesterday or so, and now it's behavior is correct.
Thnx for your reply though!

There are a few scripts in this thread. I've linked to my post which uses a python script for updating, I haven't switch to Frodo yet so if it doesn't work let me know.
