CouchPotato - Automatic Movie Downloader via NZB & Torrents!

@wilsoncheng:
Maybe look into something like http://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/ then.

Agreed! Get Moving Pictures for movies, MP is just not the same without it.


But still, it would be nice to be able to have all the movies in one folder. I manage a couple of WD TV media Players as well as my HTPC with MediaPortal, and these works best if I put all movies in one folder. Else I have to first open the folder, and then play the movie file, and it's just a lot of hazzle to setup as well.
All I'm saying is that the option would be nice, unless it somehow influences a lot of code that has to be remade.

New Windows build is out.
New builds from now on can be found on the Github download page

some how the renamer does not work for me ...

Still no idea why , when I do a new install .. first time it goes good .. after that nothing happens

any idea's  ?

[RuudBurger]

What does the log say? Is renamer even mentioned. What are your renaming settings. etc.

[xtinct101]

I'm having the same issue, it appears to not rename/move the downloaded files.
My settings are:
Download folder : set to where sab downloads and extracts too.
Movie destination: set it to where my movies go.
Rest I left as default.
It did rename/move 1 movie out of the 3 it downloaded.

Should look something like:


Note no trailing slash in the directories.
Could you also check the config.ini and look at "enabled" under [Renamer] and see if it is set to True

The log should say something like:
[app.lib.cron.cronRenamer] Renamer thread is running.

[rascalli]

This is in the log :

17:44:27,269 INFO  [app.lib.cron.cronRenamer] Renamer thread is running.
17:44:27,487 CRITI [stderr] Exception in thread Thread-5:

Settings in ini :

[Renamer]

*** EDIT 1 :  I now deleted the trailing slashes , restarted the app .. let's see what happens

[RuudBurger]

It doesn't seem to return proper data, let me look into it.

[RuudBurger]

Do a git pull / update. Provided a fix for the "local variable 'movie' referenced before assignment" error.

[rascalli]

It seems to be doing it now on the "history" that is in the folder

Will download a new one later , and see what it does with that.

oke, i dont know much about python.
But there seems to be problems when the movie name has some characters in it which break searches.

You use movie.name and i changed those to movie.name.replace(',', '').replace('.','') when used in a query.
This helped me from the 2 occurrences i found like.
You can most likely fix this better, but u get the point

To end this post,
You did a great job with this tool !
Amazing interface !
Here and there some issues - exceptions which make the app's cron job break - but im happy to test / report that for u

[RuudBurger]

What is the name of the movie?

[redalpha]

Thats quick !!

i send u an PM with my msn.
Test movies like "Me, myself and irene"
and somehow "Inception" got a dot after it "Inception." which broke the eta cron

[RuudBurger]

Fixed in the latest Git version.

I don't know how Inception got a dot at the end. Maybe it was wrong in TheMovieDb.
