Thank you for your explanation, @safihre I see no difference between manually deleting the sample and nfo files in the mentioned “Edit NZB details - Password” window and automatic deletion by a script. Example: https://s1.directupload.eu/images/250504/clocy67l.jpg But if we don't have the technical ...

But why not use the Config Switches option to delete samples? Might kee nfo files but those are tiny tiny. I want to prevent the unnecessary mkv sample files (and also the nfo files) from being downloaded and not that they are only deleted after the download. The nfo files are tiny, you are right. ...

I would not ask, if it would be that easy ;) The script itself works from command-line. Where do I have to set it in SABnzbd to be executed after adding a new Job? And as you know for Pre-queue scripts: You can choose to let SABnzbd run a script just before an NZB enters the queue . My script should...

I have written a python script which works fine if I execute it in a SSH console window on my Synology NAS with python3 DeleteSampleFilesFromJob.sh This script uses the API calls to retrieve the queue details, looking for filenames with "sample" or "nfo" and eventually execute de...

How do you actually do this conversion?
What kind of software do you use to convert multiple .mp3 to one .m4b?

Maybe this software has some kind of command-line function that you could use?

That works fine, thank you @safihre As soon as you detect the NZB file name part "podcast file week #" in a pre-queue script you can automatically assign a category like "always_dl_file" to every podcast download. Then you add a new category "always_dl_file" in SABnzbd ...

Thanks for your ideas @safihre
I need to take a closer look at how I can solve this.

I weekly download podcast episodes. These releases are titled like podcast file week #22 podcast file week #23 podcast file week #24 Now SABnzbd always thinks that the new file for the current week has already been downloaded and must be a duplicate. That's why I have to manually click on the paused...

@teaserboii SceneNZBs.com is a (German) Usenet indexer. It helps you to automate tools like Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr and other *arr-tools. These *arr-tools are looking on one or more indexer(s) to search for TV-Shows, Movies and Music by name. If found, they download the NZB from the Indexer and send ...

Is it necessary to VPN if only using sabnzbd and no other client in the USA? What exactly do you want to prevent using VPN? That your source can see where you are (your IP is) located? That your ISP can see the content you download? That law enforcement agencies can collect evidences for illegal do...

@safihre: That sounds reasonable.
Maybe this should be changed to "not a bug, just an edge case".

Currently about 12 MB/s (more or less) displayed in the upper right corner.
SABnzbd is running on a not too fast Synology NAS .-)

My queue is currently huge (15'000 entries) and I had to delete several hundreds of them. I multi-selected the entries and pressed the recycle-bin icon in the lower right corner. During the refresh of the remaining list of entries (still to be deleted), I got this crazy high ETA numbers: https://i.i...

Since the update to the newest available SABnzbd version for a Synology NAS I get this error from time to time: WARNING 16 hours ago [21/May/2023:16:01:58] ENGINE socket.error 8 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/volume5/@appstore/sabnzbd/env/lib/python3.11/site-packages/cheroot/server.p...

I have a running SABnzbd installation on my Synology NAS. To test (and compare) the download speed from my usenet provider, I would like to use a portable Windows version on my PC. Is there a way to copy (or export) all the settings from Synology to a local installation? There are several settings I...
