Is there something I can do to get less "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks (1785 short) " type of downloads? I've been using private trackers for a long time and I signed up for supernews today and half the time I either get rars with spam or this error. Is it always a hit or miss or can I do something to filter things out?

PirateDentist posted:Are you finding files using nzbs.org or some other site? How old are the posts? Supernews has good retention but that's what I usually see when something has just been posted or is really old and not all the posts are within retention anymore. I'm using nzb.su. I probably should be looking up specific release groups, but i'm not familiar with who to watch for.

I've been using Supernews as my provider and usually getting links off of NZBMatrix and haven't had any trouble.. until recently. For some reason the vast majority of "send to sab" links always fail, but if I download the zip and add it to SAB manually, it works most of the time.

I get the "» URL Fetching failed; Unusable NZB file, Try again " error all the time. It doesn't happen with every file I download, just very many. I have VIP status on nzbmatrix and I use their API key in bot sabconnect and sabnzbd..

You need the python-cheetah module for M. Lion. Make sure it's compatible. If the stable release isn't, the development version from git might. https://github.com/cheetahtemplate/cheetah

paradigmm posted:Just tried it, this app is great. Did you configure sickbeard to be accessible over your network, or is it localhost only? you need to make the address in sickbeard be 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost. And if you want it accessible from outside your local network, you have to forward the port on your router.

I finally got around to replacing CouchPotato with CouchPotatoServer and it looks really great. The best change of course is that the Manage tab now works and I can see what quality everything in my library is and instantly update it.

error: [Errno 48] Address already in use This means that your computer goes to sleep and Sickbeard doesn't come back on wake. Sickbeard is attached to a file it creates in /var/run and it won't start another process untill the file isn't there anymore. So you have to manually kill the process. An easy way to find out which process it is is to type ps aux | grep python and it will spew out all the lines running python. ps aux | grep Sickbeard should work as well You can then kill that process easily with 'kill -9 ####' where ### is the process id you get from the previous command ps aux | grep Sickbeard | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill The above command should find and kill the sickbeard process for you. I've never encountered this problem because I run all the usenet apps on a computer that never goes to sleep, but I imagine it would get tideous to do it every time you open up the laptop. You could probably write a launchd script to restart Sickbeard every time your computer wakes up. Edit: nevermind my troubleshooting. Everyone else is correct about it being the port number. The command should still work to find and kill Sickbeard though, so I'll leave it. zalmoxes fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Jul 18, 2012 |

pgrep and pkill doesn't work on OS X, but you can tweak the line I typed to get something similar and alias it.

Feenix posted:Ok so Sickbeard has stopped again. I changed the port back earlier to 9865 but it stopped anyway. The local address is your SickBeard, the foreign address is your browser window. It doesn't mean anything. Did you try killing the sickbeard process? ps aux | grep Sickbeard | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill or ps aux | grep python | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill Have you tried wiping sickbeard from your computer and reinstalling it?

...! posted:OK, I really, really don't get Sickbeard. It tells SABNZBD to download stuff, does not move or rename it at all even though I've told it to, and now it's having SABNZBD redownload stuff it just downloaded for no apparent reason. This is a mess. did you add the postprocessing script to sab and tell sab to use it for the tv category?

Drevoak posted:How can I use CouchPotato to properly sort movies into two different directories? I have my A-M movies on one drive and N-Z on another. I was thinking that in sabnzbd I could just manual place each movie in the proper category(A-M or N-Z) and let CP watch both the completed directories but it looks like CP can only watch one directory. Have CP download to /downloads and then have a script that grabs everything starting with A-M from that folder and dumps it into the right directory. CP doesnt care what happens to a file after it marks it as downloaded.

CouchPotatoV2 (CouchPotatoServer) allows you to monitor multiple folders where your movie library is and even select movies and redownload them at higher Q.

I just pasted your config into a blank install of sicbeard, pointed it to Sab, and downloaded a new episode of a show. No problems at all. Renamed the episode and everything. Did you configure SAB to use the sickbeard processing script?  This part is really important. edit: output from the sabToSickbeard processing script. (you can see it by clicking on "More") Next to downloaded episode in SAB http://pastebin.com/h3xsUF5t Line 31 is the renaming bit. zalmoxes fucked around with this message at 06:41 on Jul 20, 2012 |

Tell Sickbeard you want the show in a folder that's NOT /downloads/complete. That's the SAB default directory. You want Sickbeard to have show folders somewhere else, maybe /downloads/sickbeard or /downloads/tv_shows or anywhere but /downloads/complete really.

FAQ posted:By default there are four presets that mirror the old settings - SD, HD, Best, and Any. You can also choose a custom quality setting by choosing which qualities should be downloaded when an episode first is released, and which qualities you want Sick Beard to re-download if they become available.

You either have to move the binary into /bin or add the home directory to the $PATH.

I have a hard time finding shows that have already aired a long time ago on nzb.su or nzbmatrix. Sometimes I'll find an entire pack but downloading 70Gb to only find out it's missing chunks would be too risky.

Tapedump posted:Am I blind, or is there a way to change the desired quality of a CP Wanted download without having to remove and re-add it? In version 1 you can't do that. In version 2 you can update qualities and stuff. Why don't you use a quality profile that looks for the 720P version but will get a lower quality if the 720p is not available? zalmoxes fucked around with this message at 03:58 on Jul 27, 2012 |

stevesy posted:OS X Mountain Lion broke my SabNZBD+. Does anyone use another client on Mac? I see a few in the App Store, but don't know which to buy. They're all pretty expensive too. Did you try the version on git? If it's actually broken, it will probably be fixed in a day or two... Another(cheap) option is virtualbox vm + linux server running Sab.

That's the last CouchPotato commit on git. (The old version) For couchpotatoserver, go here https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer There is no packaged version for OS X yet. you have to run the git version.

All you have to type is 'git clone https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer.git' without the quotes. In the future paste everything you get starting with the command you entered onto pastebin. It's easier to figure out things that way.

Feenix posted:Thanks, I believe I'm all good now. I learned a whole mess of poo poo today. #! /bin/sh python path/to/CPS/CPS.py -d paste those two lines in a file then issue the 'chmod+x /path/to/file' command so you make it an executable. Now you have a file that will launch CouchPotato. Next step is to stick it into the login items Menu under System Preferences Users tab. Another option is to create a launchd daemon (launchd is apple's replacement for init.d, cron etc). Sabnzbd wiki has a nice example for running at startup, you can copy it and modify it for CPS. http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/howto-osx-src

I usually use Vim (an you can write 'vimtutor' in terminal to learn the basics) but all you should do is save the file as .sh instead if the default when using TextEdit. Then apply the chmod +x command after. If it works, you won't get any confirmation.

I only use either the default SD or HD setting and never have any problems that way. My rule is, if it's a show that airs multiple times a week, I'll get the SD version and if it's a weekly show, I'll get the HD version. Sickbeard is usually pretty good about doing that and I stopped using the custom qualities settings.

SABnzbd allows you to change the download limit through the API, so all you'd have to do is write a script that constantly calculates your speed limit. Now to think of some clever way of doing that, i'm not sure constantly pinging is the way to go. Maybe you could monitor open ports for applications you care about (skype, netflix etc).

That plugin adjusts the upload speed based on ping, but the download speed is based on the up/down ratio. Since sab doesn't upload anything, it's not very useful. The plugin calculates a minimum ping, a max ping and then tracks an average ping time. if the average is lower than the min - increase upload speed by a delta value if the average is higher than the max - decrease upload speed by a delta value downspeed = upspeed * updown ratio
