Something weird has happened to me twice now. It seems like everytime I have to restart my server (which rarely happens), Sickbeard puts my Newzbin credentials as the web user/pass. I can fix it by editing the config file manually and restarting Sickbeard, but wanted to bring it up here.

So guys I need some help/advice... I've been running the non-defunct Alpha2 build and now want to switch back to the Master build. When I renamed the Sickbeard directory and did a git clone and copied back my database, a bunch of shows went missing and things looked a mess.
My question is what is the correct procedure for moving back to master without losing my configuration?
Thanks in advance...

You mean you were on the alpha2 branch? No need to clone a new repo, you can just switch your existing repo to the master branch. Also make sure you close/restart sick beard when you switch.

I'm still new to Sickbeard, so forgive me if it already does this...
I'd really be interested in a "get highest quality" option. I realize "Best" does something similar, but AFAICT it falls a little short in two scenarios.
One, it doesn't help with stuff obtained outside of Sickbeard (like the large collection of stuff I have from pre-Sickbeard times). Two, I think "Best" needs three levels...SD, HD, BluRay.
Anyway, just spitballin here. As a python dev myself, I don't mind giving this a look if someone could point me to the right sections in the code and/or tell me if this would be a large undertaking or not.
I saw this quote from earlier in the thread:
midgetspy Wrote:Sick Beard only differentiates between SD and HD - any HD. HD is 720p x264 or better on your scale, SD is anything lower, but neither will match 1080i. There's no mechanism for re-downloading "better" HD episodes, mostly because I can't see really anybody ever using such a feature. I figure if somebody is really going to be that concerned about quality they'll probably want to manually police their reports anyway.
I would use the heck outta such a feature, so consider this a vote for it, and a potential offer of help in implementing it depending on how much work is involved.

Assuming there was a way to tell the difference via the NZB provider, it would be nice to be able to differentiate between TV-HD, 720p BR rips, and 1080p BR rips. I added Fringe the other day, and it pulled all of the 1080p rips, which I don't actually download (I only have a 720p display so it's just a waste of bandwidth and disk space). I ended up just adding the files manually.
It would be interesting to be able to add shows to a different sort of "Backlog". Maybe a "Look for Upgrade" tab which would allow you to add shows that you want to eventually download replacements for (like when DVD or BR rips come out and you want to upgrade your existing files).
Just spitballin' as well.

Sorry if this is a basic question, however I have not been able to get Sick Beard to find my already downloaded episodes.
Details:
Ubuntu 9.04
Python 2.6.1
Xbmc with mysql support (no nfo files in directories)
Directory structure:
/mnt/data/TV/<Show Name>/Season_01/<Show Name>-1x01-name.mkv
Fresh install of SB using:
git clone http://github.com/midgetspy/Sick-Beard.git
First line shows:
Starting up Sick Beard alpha2
Sick Beard starts up ok, I choose /mnt/data/TV as my main scanning directory and it finds the correct series names from tvrage.
However, after it is done, it does not recognize any of the existing files. However it did find all the episode information from tvrage. How does it use regexp to find files and can this be tweaked? Does every file need to be exactly the same?
Snippits from log snow:
10:04:48 INFO::CP Server Thread-2 :: 0: Loading show info from NFO
10:04:48 INFO::CP Server Thread-2 :: 79488: Loading show info from database
10:04:48 INFO::CP Server Thread-2 :: 79488: Unable to find the show in the database
Thanks!

Do I have to have a folder for each show in-order for it to download? I like to delete the show folders after watching to save space.

is build 451 alpha1 or alpha2?

Does anybody else get http://www.nzbs.org as offline? Anyone know why?

Yes it is down. They have been experiencing server issues, that's why registration was disabled recently.

They weren't prepared for Newzbin to disappear, so they've been getting hit hard with lots of new users. They shut down registration and have plans for some hardware upgrades. I would imagine the downtime has something to do with that.

Yeah, sorry, branch is what I meant. I did the "git pull origin master" and it seems to have worked (though the banner still reads Alpha2"). Thanks!

Hopefully NZBMatrix doesn't go belly up as well completely, or I am stuck..

Can someone tell me how do i get sickbeard to grab episodes of a program that have already aired and are classed as missed?

Drill down to the show, select the checkboxes of the shows you want to search for, use the "Add to Backlog" option at the top of the screen. Backlog is searched once a week for missing episodes (on build 449 something isn't working right with, but I haven't figured it out yet).
