Roving Reporter posted:It depends on what I'm trying to download but sometimes NZBMatrix will have it before nzbs.org or vice versa. I was going to say this same thing. There are tons more comments on NZBMatrix than on NZBS.org which is usually helpful once you wade through all the utter poo poo and bickering and name calling.

inpheaux posted:Are you sure your ISP's free usenet service works, and doesn't have absolutely poo poo retention? What you're describing is indicative of nearly 100% missing parts, likely due to being outside of your retention. This is correct. Either it is outside the retention (usually ~30 days for ISPs) or it was taken down with a DMCA request. What's the age of the file?

As nice as Newzbin was way back when, I don't know if I could justify 50 cents per week when I can already get almost everything from NZBs.org and NZBMatrix (and everything else from Binsearch).Factor Mystic posted:At least newzbin editors put the show name in the nzb (or used a tool), so sabnzbd could parse it out and I'd have nicely named television folders. Not so on nzbs.org I get nicely named TV folders from nzbs.org, just not from NZBMatrix.

zalmoxes posted:Is there something I can do to get less "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks (1785 short) " type of downloads? FYI, if you're really 1785 blocks short, there's probably some mismatching par files in there it's trying to repair with. Try going into your incomplete folder and extracting the rars manually.

Factor Mystic posted:Well... Yes, sabnzbd parses the general structure correctly, but the nzbs.org nzb's are missing the episode name, which my tv processing setup in sabnzbd uses... apparently causing the file to not be renamed. And even if it was, it'd still be missing the episode name. Hmm...you're right. I knew there was something I was missing when I switched from Newzbin, but it's been so long now that I couldn't remember. What are you using that can't scrape episode names based on episode number though?

I decided to try Sickbeard because that guy called me a failure. Here are my current gripes with it: 1) I can't seem to download in both HD and SD. There are a couple of shows that I watch in HD but archive in SD for future viewing. 2) It creates folders for all of my shows which I'm assuming that I can't delete, and so I've just got a mess of empty folders that won't see any action all summer. Can I delete those folders and can I download in both qualities?

Mine works except that now I don't get toaster style popups when my downloads complete. Not sure if that happened from the update or from installing Sickbeard and rerouting my post-processing to it.

SABConnect++ for Chrome must have been updated again because it lost my API key again but my toaster style popups are back.

The Modern Leper posted:You can delete the folders; they'll just be re-created when a new episode becomes available. This is from 10 days ago, but I just tested it. Apparently Sickbeard can't post-process the files if the show folder doesn't exist.

PitViper posted:I just noticed that same issue on nzbs.org with nzbstatus. I can't click-to-send anything to SAB, and it won't pull the RSS feed either. On nzb.su, at least, I can download the nzb directly, and SAB catches it and downloads it fine. I haven't updated any software on my machine, did something change in the last few days with nzbs.org? Seems to be working fine for me. Make sure all your data in nzbstatus is right. There was an update a few weeks ago that wiped out the API key, but I'm sure you would have noticed that by now.

Aatrek posted:I need a llittle help. Is is possible to have SABnzbd configured to be accessed by both in-network computers (I have this set up now for access through my wifi tablet) AND out-of-network computers at the same time? I going to be travelling for a bit, but ill have internet access while I'm on the road. I think I already explained this in the Android App thread, but all you have to do is forward port 8080 (or whatever port is listed on the general settings page in SAB) in your router and give SAB a username and password on that same page. Then you should still be able to connect locally with localhost, and connect externally with your external ip address (https://www.whatismyip.com). You'd set up Sab Sheep with your ip/post (ex. 123.456.789.100:8080) and your API key from the general settings page. edit: on the general settings page, I have Host set to 0.0.0.0. I don't know if that is important to this process or not.

There's no reason not to always have the mobile app send to your external IP. Sab Sheep doesn't seem to have a user selectable refresh rate so using internal IP wouldn't really speed anything up.

Is anybody else having an issue with Sickbeard not updating the upcoming airdates for shows? There's a show that aired last night and I can't get it to add the new season. I've restarted the program and I've forced a full update on the show, but it won't update. TheTVDB is up and the new season is on the site so I don't know what the hell the problem is.

Dodoman posted:When you set up a show you have a choice to set up the archive storage type. Un-selecting any which are selected (you can get to this screen by editing your existing shows as well) should stop it from downloading larger releases in the future.

tunah posted:I'm at work so I can't check the configuration, but I think you should always listen at 0.0.0.0 (any) and then port forward any external traffic on port 80 (or whichever one you want to access through) from your router to your internal IP address. This is correct. It works for Sickbeard too (though you'd probably want to change the port).
