Ignore BDMV and ISO movie releases

Post by kevindd992002 »

I have Radarr taking care of my movie releases. My goal is for SAB to cancel the download if it is either a BDMV release (contains BDMV folders) or an ISO release. Radarr doesn't have the capability of doing this. How do I do this in SAB? Can I do it for just one category?

You can just Unwanted Extensions to stop downloads when they contain '.iso'. You can list multiple extensions there, so maybe there's also a BDMV specific extension that can be recognized?
Right now the system can't recognize folders as Unwanted.
The detection can only happen after he first Rar file has been downloaded.

But if I do that, that would make it applicable for all categories, right? My goal is to only have this behavior for the TV and Movies category because I still download ISO for general stuff.

This is really something that should be managed by the search application. It shouldn't be sending NZBs to SAB unless they are OK to download.

Maybe you could do this with a pre-queue script?
Stuff I like: Apache bash cron DD-WRT Debian DNSMasq Entware FireFox GitHub ImageMagick Kate KDE LibreELEC Netrunner NFS NVIDIA OpenVPN Orvibo-S20 pfSense Python Raspberry-Pi RAID SABnzbd Transmission Usenet VirtualBox Watcher3 XFCE

I agree.

Yeah, a pre-queue script would work although I haven't though of how to do it yet. I only know PowerShell and can't say I'm an expert but yeah I'll look into it, thanks.
