I don't have a computer that I leave on 24/7... or consistently access daily.

So I was thinking of getting a VPS server that I could run Sick beard off of. Unfortunately, paying $20/month for a remote server to run sick beard just does not seem to make any sense!

Does anyone have any suggestions for how I could make this work for my situation, since I don't/won't have a 24/7 device?

Edit: I should mention - i'm not looking to set up sick beard to DOWNLOAD shows, only help me build library of shows I watch + keep track of upcoming episodes...

Why do you want a 24/7 box then? If you only want to manage your media, that makes not a whole lot of sense. Just run it locally on your machine and you can manage your shows, there is no 24/7-machine necessary.

That's what trakt.tv is for isn't it?

That's like buying a car because you need a clock.

This might have been asked before but it would be great if you could have an option to download an episode again using a different nzb. I know CouchPotato has this feature and its quite useful.

Thoughts?

Love Sickbeard btw

I don't think you can do that, but honestly it would probably be easier to just find the nzb you wanted and send it to sab yourself. Sickbeard will still post process it for you.

i just updated to version 489 after noticing that some of my shows were not updating. Is there any way to force a complete update of all of my shows from thetvdb to make sure i didnt miss anything?

It kind of defeats the object of using sickbeard if I search myself Smile

Obviously I use the solution you offered but just thought it would be a good feature and easy to implement..

I agree. But at this point, you're acting like me trying to apply an 8 hour fix to a 5 second problem. Big Grin

Is it planned to implement support for NotifyMyAndroid?

The directory for all my shows has changed so I tried to do a mass update in SB and it's failing. I went to Manage and changed root dir to "/raid/media/TV Shows" but I get errors on every show...

Obviously, "D:\Media\TV Shows" was the old directory. Am I doing something wrong?

I've searched the forums and it looks like TrollHD MPEG-2 posts are always ignored.

Can I change this? I don't mind downloading these huge files if nothing else is available...

I think the best step in this case is to do a completely new setup. Since you probably already have the nfo-files, thumbnails, etc. it shouldn't take too long. So - clear out the db and do a new scan.
The paths to every show is probably set as a full-path to that show in the database.

Set your quality to download (other).
