The quickest substitution in the history of the NBA
I'm having trouble getting Sickbeard to send nzbs to SAB. I'm setting this up for the first time and installed all of the latest versions (using the SB Windows binaries), and have no problems manually adding nzbs to SAB. In Sickbeard I searched, changed the status of the results to "Wanted", and the search appears in my Show List, but that's it. I entered the SAB API into Sickbeard under "Search Settings" and when I hit test it says "Success. Connected and Authenticated". Any ideas?

Sounds like its not actually finding a nzb to send (or it's not finding the quality it's looking for). Verify that you configured your provider right, and that the episodes you're looking or exist in the quality you have configured on the provider's site.

Just now I hit the Manual Search button in the Sickbeard season summary (the page where I switch stuff to Wanted), it changed the status to Snatched and SAB started downloading it, so the files are definitely there. Isn't the point of Sickbeard to get it to download automatically though? I'm using nzb.su, and the top of my log looks like this:

Everything was set up correctly when you changed the episodes to Wanted? I imagine that when you set it to Wanted, it checks immediately, and if there is an error, it'll wait whatever the default period between checks is before it checks again. It looks like you pasted your standard log for the time when you did your manual search, but what about when you set the episodes to Wanted and it failed?

Nice call, thanks! I had been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out what I was missing when this was it, I just needed to change the status to Skipped and then back to Wanted and it queued everything up.

Did RSS feeds from nzbs.org die or something? I had an rss feed set to watch for and filter out certain keywords which show up in my Google Reader but haven't seen a single update in a while. If I go to the website and search for the keywords there then lots of recent items pop up. I also can't seem to find where I made this rss feed because the entire website changed.

Has anyone else had problems with the Chrome extension SABConnect++ recently? For the past week I keep getting 'This extension has crashed, click here to reload' pop-up, mostly if I alt-tab away and then flip back to Chrome.

It still works once I reload it, just didn't know if this is something thats been happening to other people or if maybe my Chrome profile has become corrupted and could do with a clear out.

Quoting myself to say if anyone else has had the same problem as above, try deleting your SABnzbd history. I tend to forget to do it on any sort of regular basis and mine was about 90 pages long, after purging the history the SABConnect++ extension hasn't crashed on me once.

My nzbs.org RSS feeds (just feeds of separate categories) were still working as of an hour or so ago, when I saw the last update. You subscribe to the feeds from http://nzbs.org/rss, with some limited filtering options. For more complex filtering, you'd probably need to use the API.

even then it's sorta useless because it has some pretty piss poor matching algorithm in it that downloads just absurd bullshit for me more often than things I actually have and/or want.

Hey all, I just switched to Uverse, which has some pretty rigid data caps of 250GB per month. I want to set SAB to only download a certain amount per day. I currently have it running from 2-6am, but I want to know if there's a way to set it for a GB amount?

Thanks!

Not to get too off topic but last I read they are not enforcing it. I think they still cant tell the difference between IPTV and non-IPTV traffic. I've consistently gone over the 250GB cap and haven't heard a thing from AT&T.

It's the same deal with Comcast, I go over every month and only heard a peep 2 years ago. We will see when the tiered billing comes I guess.

Yeah, I had to update my rss feeds because mine were really old (I think from a time when I could actually specify search terms). I remade a rss url from the rss page and it seems to be in order again.

x264 is an h264 encoder. Releases are labeled as x264 to advertise that "we're using the best h264 video encoder in the world".

If something is not labeled x264, then it's probably either ripped from iTunes or is a full untouched Blu-ray.

Your server is missing nearly the entire file, either because it's out of your retention or, more likely, the copyright holder files a DMCA request to have it removed.

I installed this the last time you recommended it in the thread. Aside from the interface being ugly it's working great. I just wish the guy would add in support for newznab sites as an alternative to nzbmatrix, then it'd be pretty much perfect for all my usage.

I just wish he'd fix how the back button works. In the app, it just goes back to the previous page so if you want to back out of the app, you sometimes have to hit back 10+ times. Just make it go up a level dammit.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
I'm having a bit of an issue with the Sickbeard script for SABnzbd in that it keeps duplicating my files.

I've got a "download" folder that I'd ideally like everything to get dumped in, but after the script has run through its renaming thing and trimmed out all the needless files.

Instead it saves each complete folder of a file there (including all the unimportant stuff like samples) whilst duplicating the main file in the right naming structure in a folder structure that I think I have to use in order to configure Sickbeard properly (a general catch all folder split into different sub-folders for each show).

I've been playing around with the settings for a few days now but with no luck? Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Ah, just found that. Cheers.

Did a bit of googling too and found a guide for the configuration. I forgot that Sickbeard itself handled a lot of it.

I've made a bunch of changes and hopefully it'll place the file in the right place. In the categories section of SABnxbd i've got "D:\Media\Downloads" set as the folder/path, that should mean that the file ends up in there no matter what right?

edit: Bah, nope. It stuck the file in the D:\TV\showname folder instead of the generic downloads one.

If you use the post processing script then Sickbeard moves it from that location to its final destination. The file is only in that Downloads folder for as long as it takes Sickbeard to figure out what episode it is. download the metadata, and copy it to the final destination.

I'm trying to set the quality settings of Couchpotato v2 so that it stops download HDTV rips of movies and searches for the blurays instead. So I've got a profile with 720p first and BR-Rip second, with no check on the 720p box and a check on the BR-Rip box (so that it doesn't stop searching once its found 720p, it also has to be a BR-Rip).

Except the check mark isn't being saved, so it defaults to both boxes being checked, meaning it blindy grabs HDTV rip.

Also, is there a way to tell CPS that an existing movie is of a particular quality (like I can change the status in Sickbeard of a TV show). I've got existing movies, but I don't know how to tell CPS that they're 720p Bluray rips.
