What's your problem? I spent a good amount of time in the IRC channel and got quite a bit of help. The renaming function should have a ton of try/catch and debugging.

Sure this has probably been asked before, but any plans to implement 'collection' style features?

Such as download all movies with an actor/actress that aren't in your collection, or a certain director, or even a certain genre (maybe with multiple filters ie all sci-fi by Spielberg for example)?

No, you don't. Because it is contained within the CouchPotato.exe

I can't for the life of me figure out how to use this. I've got the webpage up and running and searched for a couple of movies, but I can't get it to download an NZB. This is probably because I can't work the "providers" config. I'm a member at nzbmatrix but not a VIP, so I have no API. Then nzbs.org isn't taking registrations so that one is also out. And newznab is a complete headfuck, with instructions that include the phrase "create website". Er... ok. Will I be able to get CP to work do you think?

Create a nzb.su account, fill in the host for newznab option as nzb.su and the api key page link is available at the bottom of the page once you are logged into the site.

Downloading now, cheers. Smile

Will CP shutdown if I close my browser?

No, it will not. It runs separately from your browser.

I've got the same issue that a few other posters have had earlier in this thread, but can't seem to figure it out:

Code:
16:41:13 ERROR [                   ENGINE] Shutting down due to error in start listener:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "..\build\pyi.win32\CouchPotato\outPYZ1.pyz/cherrypy.process.wspbus", line 213, in start

ChannelFailures: IOError("Port 5000 not free on '0.0.0.0'",)

I have ran netstat -a -b and there is nothing running on port 5000. I've tried numerous other ports with no change in results. I've tried inputting "localhost" as well as the server's actual IP "192.168.1.50" with no change either.

The interesting thing is that going back through the logs, this isn't the first time its happened, and the next try, CP would start again. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore. A similar issue exists for me with Sickbeard, as if I upgrade to the newest version, it won't start because it thinks something is already running on port 8082. If I roll back to Sickbeard 478, there is no issues.

I am running SABNzbd (8080), Sickbeard (8082) and Couchpotato (5000) on WHS 2003. Any suggestions are appreciated


CouchPotato not finding movies - acribb - 2011-03-13

Great app.

It's looking for the 1080p version. When you look directly at the nzb.su api url that CouchPotato is searching, you can clearly see several 1080p versions, one a director's cut, the other the original cut.

Why does CouchPotato not find it?

Retention? How old are the files on nzb.su and what is your retention-setting in CP?

This is a rather interesting problem. I know the behaviour from Unix-System whereas Sickbeard (subsequently the cherrypy-Webserver) has to run with root-priviliges in order to fire up the webserver. Did you try run the executable as Administrator?

I am pretty sure this has to do with framework-change in either the cherrypy or the cheetahtemplates...

Another possibility for you would try running it from the source. You would have to install the Python-Runtime and subsequent dependencies (like cherrypy and cheetahtemplates), but you should be able to run it via a command-line then (that is what I do... I never had problems similiar to yours)

Retention setting was the issue. Thanks for the insight!

When I try to download trailers manually it downloads the same trailer for every movie it finds a trailer for, in my case "the imaginarium of doctor parnassus", but I think it choose one of my existing movies.

Have anyone experienced this? Below is the log.
