So is SABnzbd still an awful client that leeches off your web browser or does it have a standalone interface now?

Not related, why does the speed seem to vary so much? sometimes it maxes out my connection at 2.5 MB/s and hangs there for a long time, other times it fluctuates wildly between 600 KB/s and 1.7 MB/s but cannot get up into the 2.0 MB/s range.

I finally bit the bullet and dicked around with getting Sickbeard to work over the weekend, and I had issues with getting the windows binaries to work (2008R2). I eventually said gently caress it to the binaries, installed python, manually installed the cheetah lib, and set up a batch file in the startup folder to call the python executable with the sickbeard.py as an argument.

I accidently saw grabbed some 1080p stuff earlier and now even my 720p stuff is a little annoying. Is there any way to have sickbeard preference 1080 for HDTV over 720?

To be honest it's a pretty good deal, I've been using it since he posted it and have had great speeds and no problems with retention, at less than half what I was paying before.

He should just have posted it in SA-mart, not here.

e: and with the code it's $4.50 a month, not $7. just hope he doesn't cancel it

What the hard drive thing? Maybe I had some bad luck but I noticed that I went through hard drives incredibly fast when I used to run more than 10 threads at a time. I always thought that writing 10+ files at a time had something to due with it.

I've actually had this happen. The DSL at my parents' old house was unreliable as hell during the day, but worked mostly fine at night. We were further down the wire than should have actually worked at all by the spec, so we had a very marginal signal and according to Verizon the above-ground lines were sagging from the heat of summer days and causing enough of a stretch over the course of a few miles of wire to take our signal from barely working to broken.

We never had any problems in winter and it went right back to unreliable the next summer until some road work resulted in a lot of the line being replaced and the problems went away.

It's rare, but it's not as silly of an idea as it sounds.

Downloaded something from dropbox and jumped on a popular torrent and reached 3.5 MB. Better, but still not great.

It's actually really loving horrible once you realise that the only reason it isn't 10.0MB+ is because of greed, monopolies, and taxpayer money being used as C-level bonuses

They just didn't set up their DirectoryIndex correctly (and/or left the default index.htm in place). Any deep links work fine, just the root index gives you the test page.

A 20 Megabit connection is 2.5 Megabytes/sec, which is your theoretical maximum. There's multiple sources of overhead from things like making packets and SSL, and then the data has to travel through the routers between you and the site you're accessing. Not all of these router hops are going to allow you to maintain maximum speed. RIght now you're getting 30-50% or so of your theoretical maximum, which is pretty good.
