Has sickbeard been updating its list of default search providers? Is there an easy way to update and existing install with the new list? since nzbmatrix went down I have had a hole in my life and I'd like to see if there are any nice alternatives.

Most sites will provide you with newsnab API details so you can add your own. I'm not aware of an update to the defaults or the non-newsnab site list.

ok. Then the issue is finding sites. Not sure if this is allowed, but is there a list of search providers somewhere? Not asking for invites or anything...

Has anyone using Astraweb noticed that when SABNZB is set to use either ssl-us.astraweb.com or ssl.astraweb.com, that the server listed under the Connections tab in SABNZB is eu.news.astraweb.com? I'm concerned that Astraweb is redirecting my request for an SSL connection to their EU server under a non-SSL encrypted connection. Has anyone else noticed this?

Is it not possible to have Sickbeard put every show in the same folder? I'd prefer to open up D:/TV/ and have everything there but when I put it to this instead of individual show folders and ticked Flatten for every show, it now picks up the random episodes I have of some shows and puts them in every show listing on Sickbeard, even if a show doesn't have that season yet

This thread has a way to dump everything in one folder that's been working for me. It still requires a folder with a bunch of show folders but you can ignore that and just look at /New Episodes or whatever. It can't handle shows with titles like Series (2013) and I've never tried to sort that out. Even with the bugs it's well worth using if you do not have a media browser. A single folder with all episodes is so much more useful than wondering which of your 20 folders has something new inside.

Do whatever works for you, but I wouldn't bother with hacking around on Sickbeard or whatever. Every modern OS has a way to show you all video files in a folder and all of its subfolders and order the results by date. Let SB work the way it was designed and let your OS work the way it was designed.

Anyone care to share their newznab-to-sabnzbdb-to-xbmc type setup? Or with couch potato or something? I see that xbmc has plenty plugins for this kind of thing but im not getting how they are supposed to flow into each other. I have Pneumatic reading my sabnzbdb, the native sabzbdb app also reading it, and the newznab add on (by the same guy as Pneumatic) reading my nzb.su account. I guess i can browse nzb.su through that add on (no search option it seems though...) and send it to download, but is there some kind of movie browser thing that will send it to newznab/couchpotato then send it to sabnzb? Basically, all my movies are 95% weird obscure poo poo I'm waiting to watch, so im looking for a way for my fiance or anyone else to scroll through some imdb-type thing and pick a mainstream movie and have it look it up on nzb and send it to my sabnzbdb. any ideas?

If you setup an imdb account, you can configure couchpotato to scrape your IMDB watch list and auto-add any movies for download and import into imdb. Really the limiting factor here though is the hit-or-miss nature of couchpotato.

The Newznab app should allow you to search as soon as you enter a category. Couch Potato also has support for downloading NZBs and creating strm files for Pneumatic to work with from what I've heard, but I haven't tried that myself and don't know if it's an everything-or-nothing prepared as streams sort of deal. If so you could probably set up a second instance of Couch Potato for your fiance to use. Have you tested that Pneumatic actually works properly on your setup? If so I'd like to know how you did it. For MKV file streaming it needs to fetch both the first and last RARs prior to playback, but it always fails to move the last RAR up in the queue, just sitting around waiting for the whole set to complete unless I go into sab and manually move the file to the top of the queue.

OS: 10.9 Mavericks Hard Drives: Mounted via USB on my Airport Extreme (newest model) I recently changed the name of my external hard drives on the network to "Media 3 TB" and "Media 1.5 TB". I also recently updated to Mavericks. Lately I've been having a ton of issues with post processing to the external harddrives - with SickBeard, I have it automatically run the SabtoSickBeard script. With other content, I have certain categories automatically move files to specific drives. Now I'm getting the following error: Category moving: Post Processing Failed for XXXXXX (Cannot create final folder /volumes/Media 3 TB/movies/XXXXXX/XXXXXX) Does anybody have any idea why this would be happening? The drives are properly mounted, the current settings on the Airport Extreme are "Enable file sharing", "Share disks over WAN", and Secure Shared Disks: with device password with "Remember this password in my keychain" selected. I'm having a lot of trouble trying to figure out what my issue is and I would appreciate the help. Corb3t fucked around with this message at 00:53 on Oct 26, 2013 |

So ever since I started the whole usenet thing (feels like ages ago but it was like.. april), I've totally ignored the whole couchpotato/sickbeard stuff. Saw no use whatsoever. Skipped every post about it. No more. I finally installed Couchpotato on HTPC/NAS (NHTPC?) so play with my XBMC setup. I've gotten it to download, take the file from sab's category folder and move it over to its final home, in xbmc's source folder, with the folder renamed and everything. I managed to do that once. I tried it a second time (this time turning on the notification settings to "tell" xbmc when it was done) and... nothing. It sent it to download fine, so SAB downloaded it and put it in its respective category folder. But CP didn't rename or move it this time. It's just sitting there. Any reason why CP moves some and not other files? Is there a way to "force" it to retry the renaming/moving thing?

I've recently switched from SabNZBd+ to the dev version of NZBget (v12.x). It seems much lighter and has proper server priority handling. I've ditched Sickbeard/Couchpotato and been relying on DogNZB to do my movie and show pulling for a while now. It polls my IMDB watchlist and has a nice TV show manager. They recently made an NZBget script which can report failed downloads to DogNZB and request another release automatically. The NZBget file renamer script (VideoSort v4) also has the option to pull media info from NZB headers supplied by Dog rather than the filename. I like this setup a lot more than SB/CP. Only drawback is that it cannot automatically check what files you already have and cannot fall back on torrents if usenet draws a blank. (I'm often surprised to find that rare, foreign Linux ISOs are often available on torrents more readily than usenet - I would have thought the p2p nature of torrents would make esoteric stuff disappear quickly) Also, has anyone been using Headphones recently? It was a bit of a mess when I played with it some time back - heavy CPU load, spamming lots of requests to both search providers and musicbrainz. Has there been any development or do any alternatives exist?

Then I started to think about how often these sites close up shop and how I didn't want to reconfigure everything for the next site. Once you've configured SB/CP you never have to touch them again and if your indexer goes away it's easy to add another. I've literally not looked at CP's web interface in months, and the only time I look at SB is when I add a new show.

I've kept mine updated and running even though it's never worked. It surprised me recently by popping up an xbmc notification out of the blue that it had grabbed something I would have wanted, but it turned out it didn't actually grab anything. I would love to know if there are any alternatives, as I also can't find a spotify app for any platform that isn't horrible. Spotimc was passable but I can't for the life of me get it to work on frodo.

I wish i understood how sickbeard works. I want SAB+ to do the post processing. It's easy, it works, and when I add nzb's manually (aka straight from my indexer) it works flawlessly. I setup sickbeard, added shows, and it will indeed add NZB's to SAB, into the category defined for tv. But for some reason, when the NZB is sent by sickbeard instead of the indexer directly, SAB does none of the post processing. To be clear, as far as I understand, I don't have sickbeard do any post processing. I tell it not to scan or process anything. SAB+ WILL post process in the tv category if I do it manually. But when Sickbeard sends a nzb, into the same same category, SAB does not do the post processing, and just dumps it in the root folder with the original name. Any ideas?

I would recommend getting it put together so it does work using a guide like this one http://jetshred.com/2012/07/31/configuring-sickbeard-to-work-with-sabnzbd-plus/ Once you get it correctly working, you can start fixing your post processing options one at a time toward what you want it to do, testing along the way to make sure you're turning off or changing configuration items in the way you think you are. It will at least help narrow the problem down. e: vvv Understood. I'm just saying we don't know how your setup is working at this time. The failure to get it to work could be because: 1) You're telling SAB to make SB do the processing, but don't have SB configured to do the processing 2) You don't have the procesing config setup correctly in SAB 3) SAB doesn't do the type of processing you're expecting 4) etc. Once you get it to a point where you know it is working the way it is expected, there's a frame of reference off which you can make changes and troubleshoot the issues you find. theres a will theres moe fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Oct 30, 2013 |

That does't appear to be what I really want, but I might give it a shot. I don't want sickbeard to be part of any processing. All I want it do is search for the right nzb at the right time and send it to SAB. SAB's tv sorting is more than sufficient for me. The only advantage I could think is that Sickbeard seems to be more capable of handling programs that are by dates (air-by-date as they call it) and not S01.E03 stuff. We shall see.

Not only this, there is various releases of the same music over and over again. Terminator 2 will always be the same name albeit in different resolutions and perhaps a directors cut. Albums become compilations and deluxe editions over the years with totally different names.

Juice Box Hero posted:That explains a lot. Hadn't thought about that part of it. Headphones has problems when it comes to CPU, Memory and polling the API. That could be rectified by a different programmer making a new program or cleaning the code. The part where it hits the API and manages to grab an album will never be resolved by any programmer unless the scene directly intervenes and creates a naming and encoding framework that everyone agrees to follow. To be fair, I doubt it's ever going to occur because music is rather cheap to begin with and it's easy to get. Napster and it's successors forced the industry at gunpoint to create Itunes and the other markets. Once you get a thing like Itunes for TV Shows that allows you to order lets say Homeland by season or by episode and it lets you watch the show at the same time it airs on TV in 1080p you'll see the scenes start to collapse.
