And no, this is just a NZB-checker. My hope is that SAB will do something like itself, so that my script is not necessary anymore.

I wasn't able to get any of the links in this thread to work, but was definitely interested in trying it out. I was wondering if someone else could repost the script.

I had seen NZB Completion checker from here
http://www.zoon.dk/?p=151

Unfortunately it did not support SSL, so I was hoping there was a sab script that would do the same thing. I'm a newbie so I apologize for the question, but could someone possibly lend a hand? I use usenetserver so I would probably have to tweak the script so that it would work with that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

We're working on adding a pre download check in SABnzbd 0.7.0.
The Alpha test will begin in a few weeks.

NZB Completion Checker was ok, I think it was a little slow(not sure, can't recall)...I stared looking for something like this a couple days ago.
I liked NZB Download Checker: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/O ... cker.shtml which seems pretty quick, and you can cancel a check pretty easily, but, I really wanted something to run on multiple .nzb files in a "batch", or queue.

I was able to get the script linked earlier in the thread. here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6knr607a1c4m5gc
I have what I believe is the original script, and I'll include my small edit...I just edited the script a little to output less for the purpose of running in a batch for checking multiple .nzb files, and makes the output more readable on the screen.

One thing I noticed about this script though is that when the articles that the nzb references have been all or mostly removed, it seems to run very slow. Otherwise, it's great! Nearly exactly what I was looking for...running in "batch" mode.

any updates on getting this in SABnzbd+?

The python script appears to be down. I'm trying the windows app "NZB Completion Checker" but its ungodly slow.

Why? The functionality has been developed into SABnzbd, and it appears to not work with the new mis-named posts.

I could dive into my webserver archive to find it, but let me know why you need it ....

I have my own script which I run to check a nzb against multiple providers.. it works but I was looking at ways to optimize it. Figured I'd look at your code and compare. Reason why I use it is to check against peoples complaints about why a nzb doesnt work / dmca concern / etc. Allows me to check quickly rather than having to rely on loading it into sab.. i can quickly run it and have it output to screen to paste in irc.

Code: Select all

>python nzbchecker.py Arrow.S02E02.Identity.1080p.WEB-DL.DD5.1.H.264-BS.nzb

You should just use the functionality in SABnzbd itself.
