RSS Queestion

Post by jwhitt12 »

I am running with ubuntu 22.04.5
I was checking my installation of sabnzbd+ and notices the RSS thing. Mind has not been installed. I have three indexers, they have all been tested and work, as far as I know. My question is whether I shoujld enter them into the sabnzbd RSS thing or not. On reflection it got me to thinking.

If anybody thinks its useful and shold be intered I would also appreciate any directions to just how, exactly, it shold be filled in.

Thoughts?

The RSS thing is useful if you habitually spend time on your indexers, browsing for things you'd like to download. If the indexer offers an account bookmarks/cart on their site and have an API for this, the downloading process becomes more convenient.

Enter the RSS details for your indexer account bookmarks feed into SABnzbd. SABnzbd will then (periodically and automatically) download any items you've saved on that indexer site.

This is easier than manually downloading the NZBs from the indexer onto your client device (PC, phone, etc...) then adding them to your SABnzbd download queue by uploading each one through the SABnzbd UI.

Note: this isn't the only use-case for RSS, but it's one I use a fair bit. 🤓
