Sick Beard - Automatic TV Show Episode download/sort/rename, nfo/tbn maker & TV Guide

is sickbeard ment to save its info anywhere? I changed some settings to link it to sabnzbd directly and it looks like its re-adding all the shows again? Not sure what its doing but its taking a while again - is it downloading all the info from thetvdb.com again?

i noticed there is a .db file in the sick beard dir which is about 9MB.

Yes, it stores its info in the sickbeard.db and config.ini file.

Open a terminal and go to the directory that sabtosickbeard.py is in.

eg

Code:

cd /path/to/sickbeard/autoProcessTV/

then

Code:

fromdos <sabToSickBeard.py >tempfile

then

Code:

mv tempfile sabToSickBeard.py

cheers

Thanks for the quick reply and the noob friendly step by step, unfortunately thats what i've already tried and still no joy :confused2:

I think it may possibly be a permissions problem, I have copied the autoProcessTV contents to /home/richard/Scripts and trying to run it from there with no success. But I can use the manual post processing option fine from SickBeard and can run it from a terminal session.

Wow, I don't know how I only just discovered this!?

I'm already using SABnzb and nzbs dot org so this will really come in handy.

thanks!

What would cause no images to be loaded on the "Coming Episodes" tab? I've got all question marks for every shows poster.

So it doesn't download them automatically when you add the shows to Sick Beard?

Has anyone noticed that one setting something to "BEST" it will only search for HD eventhough there is an SD version available...i.e) no HD is out..but it still only searches for SD.
