SABnzbd_attrib file format

Post by mathewparet »

What is the file format of SABnzbd_attrib file found under <sab incomplete directory>/<name>/__ADMIN__?

My SABnzbd recently started showing options to rate the video and audio of downloads (not for all downloads). So with a bit of investigation I found that the options show up only if the value on the 4th line in SABnzbd_attrib is 0. When the value is 1, the rating options are not shown. Is my investigation correct?

If yes, how does SABnzbd get this data? Does it depend on the nzb file?

If not, what is causing my SABnzbd to show this rating options? Is there a switch that can help me prevent it? Its concept is good, but doesn't look good in terms of UI. SAB is running on v0.7.17 and UI is PLUSH.

I only get a rate option with downloads from oznzb.com. And I assume that's based on this section in the .NZB:

Code: Select all

<head>
 <meta type="x-rating-id">
.

It's part of the optional OZNZB support.
If you don't use that site, you can ignore anything related to ratings.

... and NOT from oznzb.com? If so, I don't understand. Can you post een screendump of the rating stuff SAB is showing to you?

The NZB was snatched from Usenet Crawler (https://www.usenet-crawler.com/getnzb/f ... 11d24e1012)

By screendump I guess you said screenshot: http://imgur.com/0MuRRJs

Its looks ok on my personal laptop, but looks weird on my office workstation - both in Chrome

You must have enabled rating support in Congig->Switches.
Otherwise the extra icons will not appear in the queue.

Yes. It is on. I might have accidentally turned it on a few days back when I was going through the Config switches. Thanks.

It is strange though that the ratings widgets appear next to the files that are downloading. How could you rate them before they're downloaded?

True, that may be revised in the next major release.

Can anyone tell me if the ratings_host parameter can take multiple hosts? e.g. comma separated? Or is only one host supported...?

Just one.
The way the tags work, multiple hosts make no sense.
The rating should be sent to the site you got the NZB from.
SABnzbd defaults to oznzb.com, but will use an alternative address when present in the NZB.
