sabnzbd cant download TO a network volume/share

Post by dfkjsfkdsjf »

Hey guys.. I am running sabnzbd 0.7.6 on mountain lion 10.8.2. and i am using a time capsule as my router and the hard drive in the time capsule as a storage volume to feed my apple tv etc.

here is a screenshot of my network share:

as of now i always copy the stuff that i download manually to the timecapsule-drive via finder since sabnzbd fails when trying to set the download folder to the network share.

when the drive is mounted previously (meaning if i access it via finder) it works fine but the drive always disconnects itself after some time of inactivity and shuts down which is perfectly fine but sabnzb is unable to connect to it again itself. is there any way to do so? maybe some script or something?

it would be great if i could get sabnzb to download directly to the network share.

SABnzbd can only reach an external volume when it's mounted.
It cannot remount drives.
I know it's a PITA to keep drives connected on OSX, unlike on Windows.
