I pay $65 a month for 27Mbit and the 55 Mbit package is $95. Which is probably the reason I get what I pay for in my case. It's not oversold and under-provisioned in my particular area.

Is there a normal method for asking ISPs to bring service into an area? Where I live we have no cable, DSL, or really anything. There's about 25-35 residences on the street, but I have no idea how far away the nearest service is (or how to find out).

Yup, $85 is what I pay also. Supernews doesn't usually max it out, unless the post is very new. Typical speeds for me are 8-10MB/s.

I had a bunch of downloads that were listed at 0.00mb left in my queue but none moved to processing/unpacking phase. I had to restart my computer so I paused all downloads, but now that I've restarted, all those downloads that I was waiting on are listed in the history as completed downloads, but the files are nowhere to be found. What the hell just happened?? edit: Yeah it appears as though all the files I'd spend the past hour downloading got deleted or something. Awesome.

Nope, after I checked the log, it appeared trying to restart the nzb (I think, I still don't quite know what I did) deleted all the files. I just had the problem with another nzb, however, and with it I noticed that even though SAB had downloaded enough data, everything was located in the _ADMIN folder, but not as the .rar, r00, etc.. files. It seems like something's getting hung up converting the SABnzbd_article files to actual useable files. Weird, but I've downloaded another few nzbs with no problems so hopefully it was just a weird glitch. GobiasIndustries fucked around with this message at 09:13 on Feb 1, 2012 |

Is there ANYTHING you can do if the scene thinks a show is on season 5 but some official site nobody follows (except thetvdb) says it's season 4 causing sickbeard to download old episodes? I have them paused so it doesn't but it really takes away from the experience. I tried looking at thetvdb forums but if an official site lists something, that's the final word. They don't care if the scene is mislabeling them. I can see why they do this but it's really unpractical. I really just want some kind of manual over-ride or something.

Basically, turning off SB with all episodes marked as skipped, manually downloading all the episodes and renaming them SB style. So "This.Awesome.Show.S05E06.720p.REXXXORX-WRZF" to something like "This Awesome Show - 04x06", starting SB up again and running manual post-processing to get NFOs, etc. It sucks with anything current because you obviously would have to do that every time...

I'm surprised that it isn't The Scene controlling TheTVDB at this point. TheTVDB really needs an overhaul. Some jerk renamed one of the shows on the site and it's not editable, so now that show won't scrape in XBMC.

Fox lists the current season as season 4, so on the TVDB it's season 4. It's a pain in the rear end, but that's the way it is. Now try and figure out what mental gymnastics it took for them to leave Firefly in it's aired order (claming there's no source that the airing order is wrong, despite the DVDs being in a different order) yet they are splitting up episodes of cartoons into stories because that's how they're often released on DVD.

So I'm having a hell of a time getting Sickbeard to realize it's on a different drive letter than before. I've tried mass updating show directories to reflect the new drive letter but it doesn't take. I've removed all other references to the original drive letter in preferences and replaced it with the new one. What do I need to do to fix this? It's pretty much paralyzed the postprocessing I do on my videos.

As far as a solution goes, here's the method I use: 1. Set up a saved search on nzbmatrix or whatever and subscribe to the RSS feed in SABNZbddabadddzz++= 2. Write a post processing script that renames the file to match up with what the tvdb says and then calls sickbeards post processing script. 3. Get mad that you have to do this for every show that thetvdb is being stupid about. I like how thetvdb wants to pretend that 90% of their users aren't using the site to rename files sourced from the scene. Jerks. Anyway, I'd post a sample post processing script, but I'm not sure if that would be kosher. If a mod wants to weigh in and tell me one way or the other...

What's weird is that the whole website started off completely robbing content from the old tv.com, and then was setup as an open-source blah blah blah specifically for the HTPC crowd. Why they decided to turn a blind eye to a lot of these problems is beyond me.

Using Firefly as an example, if you look at site's page for Firefly, there is a link on the page that lets you select the DVD order instead of the aired order. Is there any way to tell Sickbeard to use the DVD order or Absolute order on a show like that? Edit: a quick search shows me that it is not possible yet. Looks like there are several request for this feature to be added. Lowen SoDium fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Feb 2, 2012 |

Well, I just modified the script a bit...it was really customized for specific shows. Now it should work for any show that you have to add or subtract from season or episode to match scene to tvdb. https://github.com/therms/scene2tvdb I haven't actually tried my modified version because it's late and I'm lazy, but if anyone wants to try it out and let me know how it works I'll fix it if needed. This should work with shows that just use four digits as their season/episode identification (gently caress those shows). If your show typically has a year in its scene name...well that will gently caress this poo poo up. I'll fix it if that's a problem for anyone. It will also work with shows that have a scene name identified with "S03E11"-style episode/season identification. Currently won't work with any other types of season/episode numbering. I can fix that if anyone actually uses this. If you need to replace any text in the scene name to make sure it matches with the TVDB, you can do that also. Instructions

Thanks! I'll give it a try and see how it plays out. In other news, I've stopped using Blocknews for the most part for backup, due to it getting raped without my knowledge. I bought a 50GB chunk, and set it up to download a few NZBs overnight. Turns out 3 of the 5 NZBs I queued up were completely nuked from the Supernews server. So, I ended up eating up 20GB of Blocknews due to them being fully intact there. Since sabnzbd is [mainly] automated, anyone know of a way to set it as a backup with a MB limit? I don't mind it grabbing 100-500MB of missing/incomplete files but not an entire post. For now I'm sticking with free xsusenet for backup.
