Just to clarify my understanding, If I make a new quality and set it to download 720, DVDrip, R5 and Telesync it will download the first it finds but won't download anything else of higher quality? Does that mean I have to make a new "search" for every quality I want it to check for? I.E. Movie.TS comes out so it will download that first but then Movie.R5 comes out the next week CouchPotato won't download that?

@HarryRosen:
Are you using the GIT version on windows? if so, could you please update to the latest and try again.
If not, or it still happens, please PM me your data.db.

@compcentral:

Removed the language from the donate link. Didn't even notice it.

@grassmunk:
Uncheck the "finish" checkbox if you want to keep searching for more qualities

Here it will download dvd-rip and BR-rip but keeps searching for better qualities. If 720p or 1080p is found, it will mark the movie as "complete".


- grassmunk - 2010-07-25

Oh! That makes perfect sense...... Would it be possible to include that in the OP?


- HarryRosen - 2010-07-25

Yes i am using the git version, will try the update


- HarryRosen - 2010-07-25

also is it possible to have the app notify and update xbmc library automatically? like sickbeard?


- RuudBurger - 2010-07-25

Nope, not yet.
You can do a request on github Wink


- RuudBurger - 2010-07-26

For all the users who are running from GIT, how is the updater working for you?
I want to make an auto updater, but want to know if the updates are running correct.


- HarryRosen - 2010-07-26

I was running the git but never got a version number so wasn't sure if it updated. I have since moved the the windows build.


- rob151515 - 2010-07-26

Just wondering if there are any future plans on implementing some kind of min/max filesize (ie. Min of 2GB, Max of 5GB) for NZB's?


- compcentral - 2010-07-26

The donate link from http://www.couchpotatoapp.com is still in Dutch.... actually, I tried it from within the app and from the github site as well and sure enough... still all in dutch. Not a huge deal (since google chrome can translate it fairly well), but a bit confusing for some I'm sure.


- compcentral - 2010-07-26

One quick question... where might one find release notes?

oh and the updater is working great for me so far using the windows builds... went from r14 to r15 and r15 to r16 that way.


- RuudBurger - 2010-07-26

@rob151515
There are minimum sizes set for the qualities. What do you need min/max filesize for?

@compcentral
Could you see and try another time? I hate it when such a simple thing doesn't do what I want Wink
Also, there will be a click-and-update for Windows eventually, but I have to figure out some problems with the compiler.

hey ruudburger,

i'm getting errors on searching now:

it appears

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''
id = int(self.gettextelement(nzb, "link").split('&')[0].partition('id=')[2])
File "/home/mediabox/.couchpotato/app/lib/provider/yarr/sources/nzbmatrix.py", line 72, in find

removed username and apikey just fyi

it appears to stop the entire search process when it hits this error.

edit: oh yeah, i just updated the app through the update now link in the application. this is from git, but i just update through your app now.


- lslow00 - 2010-07-26

going to services.nzbmatrix.com it tells to use rss.nzbmatrix.com instead, maybe the nzbmatrix api on your end needs to be updated?

Is this something we can set?

I asked Couchpotato to find me a BDRip of a movie. It worked great and added an NZB to SABnzb however it's only 1.5GB. It's supposed to be the extended edition which is 2.5 hours long - so I suspect the resolution or bitrate are quite low which is not what I want. I would expect that a BDRip of this particular movie at 720p with a half decent bitrate would be in the 3gb+ range.

If I was able, I would set a minimum size of about 2.5gb with a maxium of about 5gb.

Once again, loving this app - Thanks for all your hard work!!
