It's an NZBMatrix problem, report it to them. Both RSS feeds should match.

I could be wrong..but that seems slighgtly optimistic unless they have primised someone it should work in cp.
Meanwhile cp only works if you have an account to an index that is closed for new users.

Np, but very interesting to know.

Thank you darkscout.

If you can find the movie via their regular search. Report that the movie can't be found in the rss feed. I can't magically change their feeds. They can at least try and update it.

Perhaps I missunderstood...

Don't want to sound harsh Wink I mostly respond when I'm in the train on an iPhone, need to keep it short. Just saying Big Grin

Not at all.
I think I actually may have missunderstood. If not, I am sure darkscout will be back.

You are talking about this specific movie, not a general error in the nzbformat?

The problem I have is that cp do not find much at all....while sb is working fine.
Initially I thought it was because I want smaller files than the "standard" 720p. I try do get DVD and while testing on black swan only 720 could be found.

Then I got a bit frustrated when I realized that most "super users" are using an index that I cannot get into.
I still think this is a valid point...the bulk of the testing should be done on an index that is still open for registry.

http://nzb.su/ is open for registration and works just fine. But multiple providers give the best results.
So nzbmatrix (whats 10 dollars anyway?) + nzb.su is good combination.

Thats what I have. I will set everythink back to 720 and see what happens.

I do not know why I started using the CP so late, but I have to admit that is great.

I have also few question. I have a few movies:

Fast Track (2006) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458364/
Lucky (2011) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1473397/
Moneyball (2011) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1210166/
The Vow (2012) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1606389/

and CP doesn't show covers for them, all covers for movies are only from themoviedb.org ?

I prefer torrent option and my second question is related with them:
It is possible to "delay" or "wait" opitons for search torrents on thepiratebay ?
Beacause in torrents there are many fakes, so to avoid download them wait/delay options will be great. I mean download torrent file only if exist on portal for example 5 days (there is attibute/info on portal when torrent was Uploaded.
fakes torrents are deleted after 1-5 days, example:
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6527457/Rio_(2011)_DVDRip_XviD_-_FUSiON
goole webcache

Thanks again for fantastic software, and for any help.

I think it's an error in the format the rss feed returns.

Right now you're failing when it searches for this:
Code:
http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?username=my-ID&term=tt0087078&apikey=my-API&subcat=42&searchin=weblink&english=0

I think it should be searching this:
Code:
http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?[b]page=download[/b]username=my-ID&term=tt0087078&apikey=my-API&subcat=42&searchin=weblink&english=0

Without the "page=download" the rss returns the link to the "info page"
Code:
<enclosure url="http://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-details.php?id=983278&hit=1" length="5112395202" type="application/x-nzb"/>

WITH the download link it returns the rss to the direct NZB (which is what I think CouchPotato needs).
Code:
<enclosure url="http://nzbmatrix.com/api-nzb-download.php?id=983278&username=XXXX&apikey=XXXX" length="5112395202" type="application/x-nzb"/>

This is probably a silly question but I have signed up for nzb.su which provider section in CouchPotato should I be using for this site?


**EDIT**

Seems like it might be the Newznab section?


- darkscout - 2011-07-15

Yes, And nzb.su isn't the only newznab provider:

Is there something up with the renamer? I just started using it today, and it seems to erroring out on folder names.

The log shows:

Which should have made the folder: "/volume1/storage/Movies/The Shawshank Redemption 1994 720P bluray x264 DTS"

But it's actually called "/volume1/storage/Movies/T21S6F~B"

It seems about 3/4 of my movies got renamed with such shortened foldernames.

My foldername string is "<thename> <year> <quality> <sourcemedia> <video> <audio> <group>" in order to retain as close a match to the scene folder name as possible.

NB, running on a Synology NAS, so is it possible it's missing support for something specific?

EDIT: I messed around with the renamer a bit more, and have it working now. I changed the folder rename to "<thename> <year> <quality>" and it's working ok now.

I have been trying to find the best place to make a change request. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

Stripping titles of punctuation for searches would considerably improve the search hits. For instance, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" will not match an nzb spelled its instead of it's.

Since I started using Couch Potato it has started interferring with my sickbeard tv downloads!! it has started moving my tv shows to the movie folder configured in cp when they should be going to the folders configured in sickbeard! It seems to be since i added the movie category.

i am using sab as my client.

Baffled!
