Help! - kushty - 2011-10-13

Help! When Headphones tries to send something to Sabnzbd it says this:


Timestamp Level Message
2011-10-13 21:56:58 INFO Unknown failure sending NZB to sab. Return text is:

The more detailed output from the command prompt says:

INFO :: CP Server Thread-6 : Unknown failure sending NZB to sab. Return text is: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C/DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

Anyone know what's wrong?!

Does anyone know of a way to get Headphones to start without displaying the console?

No, but you need to search the thread because it's been discussed many, many times.

Do you run from source on windows? Then you can just use pythonw.exe instead of python.exe in order to launch the application (hint: Just make a shortcut of the pythonw.exe. Afterwards right-click the shortcut and edit the propertys - behind "...\pythonw.exe" write the full path to the headphones.py-script (also with "" wrapped around the path). Then you can launch headphones without the console with this shortcut.

Not a complete waste of time. It's still great to monitor for new music from your favorite artists.
But for collection management, it does require a ton of work if it's not tagged exactly. Hopefully when Rembo is able to start working on it some more that will be able to be improved at some point.

Finally got a chance to dig a bit into my problem of nothing getting processed.
New albums is looked up and downloaded. But nothing more. Albums are sitting in my Headphones Completed folder

Here's the logs from around the Album that was found and downloaded.

I really don't get this. As you can see, there is a lot of artists found, but the reason is that I'm using an application that deals in Album Artists, and separates artist on collections.

I've added some Artists that I'm interested in. Not all. I've added the download directory of Headphones as well as the destination folder. But there is still NO sign of Headphones trying to post process it or move it to the destination folder.

I would appreciate any help!

I've found that when Headphones won't post process an album it's because it can't figure out what it is. It uses a pretty strict format of folder naming: Album Artist - Album [Year], plus the tracks themselves need to be tagged properly with Album Artist, Artist, Album, Year. It might not be that specific, but it's something along those lines. I'd say 50% of what I download won't post process by itself without being massaged by mp3tag and changing the folder name first.

Okay, fair enough. Perhaps I should elaborate on my question. I am using the windows .exe variant of Headphones and it seems that the -q switch to prevent it from starting with the console does not work on the .exe version.

Are the the switches for the .exe different from those for the .py, or does the .exe simply not accept any switches?

This. And currently I cannot be bothered to implement a quite-version, sorry.

Just notices an upgrade, does this mean the project is starting up again?


- shadowfighter - 2011-10-25

good to see there are some updates, however, when I click on update, nothing seems to happen.. anything I can try?

running a git pull first updates the software, next time, tells me I am up to date. Still in the GUI I see that I have 24 updates...


- HenryFord - 2011-10-25

Do you run the windows-version? I haven't updated it in a while - will probably do it tonight.

Many thanks for the guys picking up the project!!!
