thanks

Manage Shows > Manage Searches

Edit: regarding the Backlog. Is there a way to see a list of all shows currently in the backlog? And is there a way to tell Sickbeard that it's ok to download certain shows in SD if there is no HD (again, only in the backlog)?

Thanks,

another small issue it grabbed the NZB files but only snatched them, it put the files in the same folder as SB is running. How do i make it auto download them?

All settings are the same as before.

Did you tell it to send it to SickBeard? Do you have SAB's API keyentered.

If you're using watch folders did you enter anything in the path?


- Mrkennedy - 2010-07-28 14:33

SAB key is working.

Just added the sickbeard folder they are poping into as a watched folder and SAB is taking them, but nothing is entered as the folder, as soon as i click TV is auto changes the script to the sabtosickbeard.exe and process fine wirh name change etc.

But how do i tell it to auto grab the nzb without the watched folder, like it was working like before?

mrkennedy, do you have it set to the "blackhole" or set to Sab?
Blackhole will send to a folder while "sab" will go automatically to sab by passing a folder

If you want to use the blackhole method, simply create a folder under the watched dir and name it as the category you want to use. So your dir will be \watched\tv or \watched\tv shows.

Otherwise set the NZB action to SAB and make sure the default category matches with whatever you have configured in SAB.

Anybody have trouble with The Colony? I added it as a new show this morning, and searched for the episode that aired last night and got no results. I then checked NZBs and see that it exists. Looking at the logs, it seems like Sickbeard is searching an older cache (maybe? I'm not so good at interpreting these things):

thanks guys, overlooked the blackhole section. Changed it to SAB so hopefully it works now.


On another note, is there a way to have banner and poster in the folder? I use banner on XBMC so SB grabs that and looks awful. On new shows i added it adds the poster which looks great, but XBMC then uses that.

Or is there a way to display banner in SB?

Unable to parse the filename RSS Feed Url Changed into a valid episode
Can someone tell me what this means?

I have source dated 26/07/10


- kjn134 - 2010-07-29 12:52

mra6368 - I am not 100 +'ve but I think it has to do with NZBMatrix Search API being down.
Disable the NZBMatrix Search Provider and see if the errors go away (re-enable once the search API is back).


- mra6368 - 2010-07-29 13:17

Disabled NZBMatrix, will wait and see. If the API key is down, how do i know when it is working again?
