Re-designed RSS Module
Give it the url to an RSS feed and you can add filters that narrow down the matched items by either being "Accepted" or "Rejected"
Clicking the "Query" button will show you what will match that set of filters, and what has already been downloaded.
Clicking the "Start/Download" will immediately start RSS processing and matched items will be added to the queue.
Bookmark processing.
This is a low frequency bookmark checker. It is not meant to replace sabtab or nzbdstatus. It is meant for situations such as at work/school where you want to add a download to be done by the time you get home; and don't want to expose SABnzbd to the world.
Categories
If you want TV stuff or Movies to be downloaded to another folder/hard drive, then you can set-up categories for your downloads.
Simply specify the name, unpack, and script options followed by the directory (either relative to your download directory such as in this screen shot, or a fixed path such as E:\TV\)
SSL
SSL support is handled by pyopenssl, so make sure that is installed for you non-windows folks.
Simply enable SSL (if not enabled pyopenssl insnt installed) on your server that you know supports SSL. If you enable it on a non-ssl server it will just fall-back to not using SSL.
New on queue finish options.
These are actions that are performed when the current queue has been completed.
Before there was only shutdown pc (windows only). Now there is
Shutdown PC (windows only)
Hibernate PC (windows only)
Shutdown SABnzbd
Scripts - runs one of your scripts from your defined script folder.
TV Sorting
SABnzbd can now detect when you are downloading an item that is part of a series such as a single episode or a part of a DVD.
It can organise your folder structure as such putting files in folders such as:
Show Name/Season 1/1x01 - Episode Name/
Show Name/Season 1/S01E01 - Episode Name/
or even dump everything into one folder (select "No Folder")
Show Name/Season 1/
Show Name/
