Any chance of extending this to work with binsearch collections? I had to use binsearch for some TTC videos the other day and it turned out to be a nightmare. To get separate, named NZBs, you need to copy and paste the title of the collection into the search box, search again, then select and create...

Ok, thanks. I'm sure that will be a decent workaround, but it seems to me there's an underlying bug somewhere. I've downloaded plenty of collections with multiple par/rar sets in the past and I've not noticed Sab stopping all rar processing because of single failed par check. Seems odd.

Right, I've no AV, but it could be windows try to cache thumbnails or index the folder etc. Thanks.

from the logs:

2009-11-03 03:06:33,168::ERROR::[postproc] Error renaming "D:\Videos\TV\_UNPACK_title" to "D:\Videos\TV\title"

Can't see an obvious reason why it would fail.

It seems to be tripping up on the samples.  Even if it was finding an error with the sample (or the par2 associated with the sample), I wouldn't have thought that would stop Sab processing the main par and rars as it usually can deal with multiple rar/par sets easily. It's also strange that it's sho...

Just occasionally, sab will check the pars, confirm the set is ok, delete them, and then at the unpack stage return an error of 'no post-processing because of failed verification'. Extracting the rar set in 7zip will then go without any problems.

What could be causing this?

I get this even without TV renaming. Grabbing stuff off Newzbin seems to occasionally result in a folder with an UNPACK prefix. I've found no reason why it would do it as the pars and rars are all present with no processing errors.

sab doesn't provide an rss feed does it? it uses rss for nzb downloads, but only uses email for status updates afaik.

Thank you!
And for Merlin I made it easy for me, I used re:^Merlin.S0* instead 

Careful, re:^Merlin.S0* would match Merlin.S0, Merlin.S00, Merlin.S000, etc. Whereas re:^Merlin.S0.* would match Merlin.S01, Merlin.S02, Merlin.S03, etc. I doubt it'll actually matter though.

Yep. SABnzbd Smart Downloader which is based on; Autodownload script This script will run through the RSS feed and decide if the movie is "good". The logic I use is if the movie is over 8.0 on IMDB with over 1,000 votes, I won't mind downloading it. Of course, the script also checks to see...

Either I'm too tired or I'm just haven't enough brain to think straight. I'm trying to figure out how regular expressions work. I was using just standard word filtering, but it wasn't really satisfying. This is for mostly TV shows. I'm trying to use regular expressions now and it seem to match my f...

be easier to reject xvid.

The problem with that is that sab doesn't save in the correct manner, ie /artist/album. I could also get itunes to do the sorting, but it also ignores image files and trips up while trying to delete.

It would be nice if this script could correctly deal with image files that are already included with the NZB. At the moment it just ignores them, then trips up when it tries to delete the directory because it isn't empty. Only way round it is to set the removeimage flag to true, but then you lose bo...

It's not just that, the amount of additional code and added complexity is large. It would not be worth the investment. Yeah, it is fairly intensive. Newsbin does it quite well, but it's a large program and is more or less the antithesis of sab because of that. When it comes across an nzb/set of fil...
