In CouchPotato v2, where do I put my SAB password? The config UI only has space for Host/API/Category.

For the past week or so, I've been getting "Invalid par2 files, cannot verify or repair" errors on almost everything. I've been using Sickbeard, sabnzdb, nsb.su, and supernews. What is going wrong? edit: I tried GrabIt, and while some things work, most say "Article not found." Question Time fucked around with this message at 19:56 on Dec 8, 2012 |

Just so no one thinks I abandoned it, I've been making tons of progress on my application to fall back to private torrent sites (well really any tracker with an RSS feed) any time a show fails downloading in sabnzbd. Maybe I'll throw it up on github tomorrow if anyone wants to test or hack on it. It's in Python with Elixir.

What is going wrong? I've seen similar issues, mostly with things being released before the official retail release date. I have no issues with older postings, but they seem to be going after the new stuff pretty hardcore.

But how long until that gets taken down? Do they only care when people are trying to make money off of indexing or are they just choosing to get those down before they go for the free ones?

Motherfucker. Seriously, where to now? I prepaid for a year of Usenet access and now I've got no indexer. A few years back I used to use Grabit and browse the groups that way; is that still possible?

I could, in theory, set up an automated indexer of my own, but that just seems like a whole lot of hassle. By the way, I'd be really interested in that torrent fallback program you're working on,Thermopyle!

torjus posted:Sickbeard's own index is really good. Is there a way to access sickbeard's index without using sickbeard itself? I've found that after I get beyond a certain number of shows added it just shits itself and grinds to a halt, never to download anything ever again so I've moved over to nzbdrone which seems to be a hell of a lot faster and also manages to overcome issues where "scene" naming doesn't tally with official listings.

NZB.su or omgwtfnzbs.com Personally, I think I'll go back to monitoring the official IRC channels and websites of the fillers and just search the post ID in binsearch or equivalent.

With NZBMatrix gone, maybe the NZB Unity app will finally get newznab support?  It's pretty unsettling to see yet another indexer fall though. Might be about time to roll one's own service soon. Anyone in this thread who's done that? I wonder how much bandwidth it'd gobble down.

If you're using the free ones why not just add Womble Index as well as SB Index? They're both in there by default.

This was at the end of NZBMatrix's closure note, with brings up a question.NZBMatrix.com posted:Also the Usenet Indexing scene is going through some changes, with content being removed from pretty much every provider its making the existence of an indexer irrelevant if the content does not even exists anymore. Are there any Usenet providers that are not legally required to comply with takedown requests because they're in some bizarre country in the middle of nowhere? It's irritating to want to get that new awesome Linux distribution that I've been waiting for only to have it fail even though it was uploaded two days ago. Usenet is turning into a poor place to get my Linux distributions because of this. Aws fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Dec 9, 2012 |

here are some other nzb sites couchpota.to nzb.su nzbs.org sickbeard binsearch supersearch nzbindex.nl dognzb sadly the best ones (dognzb and nzb.su) require invites or you get lucky and you catch the registration windows. anyone have an invite going? nzbindex is good if you know how to avoid the fakes and pw protected crap

I came here to see if others saw the NZBmatrix closing notice. Of course you all did though. We need a good index to go up again, and in a place that isn't going to get shut down so easy.

There are a ton of great indexers, I've been collecting accounts since the original Newzbin shutdown a few years ago, I hate being reliant on a single source. Every time a new one pops just make sure you signup, I just check this thread every week or two. Unfortunately there just aren't any with curated reports and the size of user base that nzbmatrix had. They were kind of a lovely site anyway though, the API would break every few months, the user comments were typically filled with idiots and they pulled this poo poo without warning or taking down the "donations" page in advance.

Hate to see them go but I guess that leads us to the next question - how do we decentralize this? Obviously all of these indexers were running scraping bots and sourcing their nzbs from somewhere. Given the uniformity of the software running these sites and the availability of said software - what is to stop the individual from running their own indexer only for their individual and private use? My follow up question is, where were these site scraping from and why hasn't the original source of aggregation been targeted? Is it possible to decentralize the distribution of these source indexes say through a system like torrents?

I made a DOGnzb when it first started but I've only grabbed 2 NZBs from it before I forgot about it. How well does the NZB push thing for TV shows work? It makes Sickbeard redundant but you still got to pay for it. How does it compare to binsearch or nzbclub when searching for stuff in general?

looking into nzbnab. it provides the tools to build your own indexer. my hosting setup doesnt allow for some of the requirements since I am more a frontend / actionscript developer. anyone else have experience setting up backend systems? if so, checkout nzbnab.

I think my nzb.su account has been deleted. I didn't really use it, but it is disappointing. Still got a (0 invite) nzbs.org account though. Hopefully it'll keep chugging along until the dust settles and there's less demand for new accounts elsewhere.Bobx66 posted:Hate to see them go but I guess that leads us to the next question - how do we decentralize this? Obviously all of these indexers were running scraping bots and sourcing their nzbs from somewhere. Given the uniformity of the software running these sites and the availability of said software - what is to stop the individual from running their own indexer only for their individual and private use? It is possible to run your own indexer. Newznab is just that. I believe it has the same codebase as the nzbs.org and nzb.su indexers, although I'm not sure to what extent each site has done its own modification. These sites aren't getting their nzbs from a single source - they're creating them. Usenet is a protocol which describes a decentralised forum. The indexer sites will grab the headers for each post made (remember that a binary on usenet is nothing more than a file encoded into text and split up into lots of parts) and then parse them for relevant data. Newznab and the better indexers have more intelligent parsers than binsearch or similar. Note that you don't need an indexer at all to download from usenet. Older clients which don't automate as much will let you grab all the headers from a particular group, and then manually select which files to download. The indexer and a good automated client like SABNzbd make it a much nicer process.
