For Chrome (don't know about other browsers) there is an addon "SickBeard Connect" which can do it.

that is exactly what i was looking for. Thank you very much!!

Just to throw this out there, I'm not sure if it's been discussed as I haven't read the entire thread, but is there any plan to have size constraints like the way couchpotato does?

Thanks for the new update, but the updating of the xbmc library on a per show/episode basis seems to still not be working right..

EDIT: Actually may have been an isolated indecent, seems to be working now

Another update, another update without 1080p WEB-DL. Basically if you're wanting 1080p WEB-DL, sickbeard is completely useless right now. Not only does it not grab them, but if you have archive quality set to 720p WEB-DL, every time you get a 1080p, the archive quality overwrites it so you have to mess around with your archive quality or turn it off.

I was frustrated by the lack of 1080p Web DL. I just switched to NZBDrone which handles them fine and will soon handle 1080i.

I'm basically handling all my downloads manually now anyway. I just use SB for post processing, which is nice and saves time.

hi all, I'm having problems using custom Newznab based providers in Sickbeard, I have entered my API key and URL and when I try to get SB to download an episode i know to be available on said custom NZB site, SB says in the log "CP Server Thread-9 :: don't know what nzb_zombie is, skipping"

What do you have in the url field exactly? Make sure you have it begin with http://

anyone have any issue with xbmc not updating library after sickbeard downloads a single episode?

for some reason xbmc is trying to scan a .actors folder that doesnt exist.

example here:
ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting smb://HOME-PC/TV SHOWS/Jimmy Kimmel Live/.actors


RE: Sick Beard - Automatic TV Show Episode download/sort/rename, nfo/tbn maker & TV Guide - Zxurian - 2013-02-08

are there any plans to have sickbeard download episode thumbs as .jpg instead of .tbn format?


Today's Update - guy_smiley:) - 2013-03-27

Does anyone know how long the database upgrade takes?

EDIT: A looooooong time. About 3hrs for 42 shows (35 active) | 1548/1803 episodes downloaded.

Maybe for a database upgrade it might be worthwhile keeping some blank place holders for future updates?


Re: Sick Beard - HenryFord - 2013-03-28

What're you hinting at? That there should be blank fields in the database? That wouldn't do much good in case any of those fields will be used at some point. Altering the table is not the process taking up the power but rather filling those fields with data. In case of blank fields, you'd still have to fill in the data...
