I thought they fixed that bug in SABnzbd where it would create a folder in /volumes/ with the name of your drive. Then, when you mount your drive, it would get mounted to /volumes/drive 1/. I guess not.

Thus, saving to a network drive or removable device that actually gets removed on a Mac probably isn't the best idea.

Anyone else have problems with Sickbeard sometimes just not updating shows with air dates and whatnot? It doesn't happen all the time, just once in awhile. I assume maybe it tries to contact thetvdb and fails for whatever reason. I'm running from source and I can't seem to track down whats causing this. Is there a variable that controls show updates? I can't seem to find that option so I'm assuming its hard coded to avoid API spam or something.

Well I can usually get it to update by clicking on the show and doing a "Force Full Update". I'm just trying to see if I can find the root cause because there's nothing in the logs related to it and no tvdb errors either. I guess I could do a little script to force full update on the whole library once a week but I worry about getting banned from tvdb for API spam or whatever.

paradigmm posted:its because tvdb said one thing, sickbeard did its initial show setup, then tvdb changed its listings... you have to remove the show and add it back in sickbeard for it to pick up on it for some reason Just to clarify, I'm referring to air dates mainly, not episode numbering or etc. For example, one show will sometimes show up just fine one week then decide magically to not update the following week. It happens to many of them with no rhyme or reason. When I select the show it will have say 1 upcoming episode listed with an air date of Never or skipped. When I force a full update on that specific show it will then pick up 3 or more upcoming episodes and suddenly have the air date times. It seems that Sickbeard isn't updating the show via thetvdb but I can't see how or what's causing it. Is Sickbeard hard coded to only update air dates once a week or something? I'm wondering if I had my HTPC in S3 sleep when its supposed to occur or something silly.

I have my sickbeard port (8081) forwarded to the usenet machine using a dynamic DNS service, but there doesn't appear to be a way of securing that "page" through something like a password. How could I secure that page on my server so that I don't end up with a bunch of Desperate Housewives episodes on my server?

What's nice as it does this through browser authentication and not some web form, so if you want you could run a reverse apache proxy and any plugings will still work. Fake edit: I guess I know for sure Sabnzb does this, becuase my coworker has it setup that way, but I assume Sickbeard is the same.

Why I am getting like 90% of the downloads saying "Download Failed - Out of Your Server's Retention"? I am getting it on files that are only a few weeks old. Using SABnzbd with Firefox. It's weird too because it looks like it's downloading, and then it does this when the progress bar is at the end. It is doing this on every computer in my home.

Without saying too much, certain types of content have been being DMCAed from the major Usenet services fairly rapidly these days. That'll cause exactly what you're seeing. Something that I think should be completely OK to post (as it's a free demo) that falls in the same category as where I've seen the most problems is Left.4.Dead.2.DEMO.X360-DiGi.

Using SABnzbd with Firefox. Double-check the clean-up list (at the bottom of the page under Config -> General) to make sure it's not deleting files you want to keep. If, for example, you downloaded an NZB that only contained the posts for a .txt file, but you had it set to delete .txt files, it will come up with that error. Also, if you have it set to delete samples or not download them (Config -> Switches), and the NZB you downloaded only contained a sample file, it will also give the error.

One option is to add a block-based provider like Blocknews (recommended in the OP) in addition to the unlimited plan in your setup. Buy whatever amount of blocks is cost effective for you (it won't use very much). Add that server to SAB and check the Backup Server box, and it will only check the block provider if it's missing a piece of a download from your unlimited plan. The key: that your unlimited provider and your block-based provider be from different e: This is a pretty comprehensive listing of what providers back which resellers. ee: Blocknews also allows account sharing. So you could pool your resources with a bunch of bort fucked around with this message at 14:17 on Dec 22, 2011 |

Hamburglar posted:Usenetserver, using their $10 a month plan. Could they be why? The backup setup I illustrated above makes completion rates approach 100%. It also took months and months to use even 1G on the block provider. When a download fails, it's usually missing a single-digit quantity of blocks, which is a very small transaction. It takes a ton of failed downloads to use up, say, $15/100GB at Blocknews. It'd be years for me.

It'd be years for me. At least the ones I've seen recently almost all posts are missing, they're not just killing enough to break PAR repair like they used to. It just results in SAB sitting there with the progress bar moving at lightning speed but nothing actually downloading.

I did have issues with astra when I used them awhile ago, they had an outage and never seemed to fill the missing stuff even though they said they would. This is of course back when they were only 30 days of retention (and this was considered good) so gently caress I doubt this says anything about them currently. pixaal fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Dec 23, 2011 |

Nah, what happened is a show that had aired two episodes in one night got changed from two episodes to one on thetvdb, so when SickBeard updated the show it decided the 2nd episode no longer existed. The cd1/cd2 thing didn't pass post-processing, so I let SickBeard scan & process the 1st file, then renamed the 2nd file and put it in the same folder, and appended -cd1 & -cd2 to each name. So right now it's: "Title SXXEXX EpName-CD1.mkv" & "Title SXXEXX EpName-CD2.mkv" Here's to hoping that works out with XBMC, as the wiki says stacking is limited to movies currently.

It looks like when couchpotato downloads a movie the is broken up into 2 files, eg: Blah-cd1.avi, Blah-cd2.avi, it only moves and renames 1 on the files during post processing. So how do I tell couchpotato to (preferably) find a version in 1 file (who stores movies on cd anymore anyway?) or move/rename both files?

Do you have the <cd> or <cdNr> option in there? I've never had a problem with it copying multiple-disc movies. The pattern I use is: <thename><cd>.<ext> If that's not it, check the log file for when it tries to move the movie. Maybe something in there will shed more light on the situation.
