sab does not categorize?

Post by soudlous »

Which settings have to be enabled for it to correctly categorize automatically into a folder for groups from newzbin.
Does it do this automatically? Everything It completes is sent to the root folder, no organizing at all. It's doing TV as in /show/season etc, but doesn't actually make a "tv" folder. I don't see the option for diable or enable categorizing. I don't know where to look.

How are you adding the nzb files to newzbin? The only automatic categorisation if added through newzbin's api, such as giving the url of a report to sabnzbd, it's message id, automatic bookmark collection or a third pary utility such as nzbdstatus or sabtab2.

If using a watched folder, save it into a subdirectory named after the category and it will be picked up, ie "c:\blackhole\CATEGORY"

If using any other form you will need to manually specify the category.
