For anyone who is getting _UNKNOWN_ on renaming, could you PM me the movie name and the original full release name.
So I can test why they are marked as unknown and can improve the renaming script.

Just downloaded the app and I was getting the logging thing, so I tried the terminal and I get the following. I'm using OSX 10.5.8 with pyton 2.6.6. Any ideas?


daa$ python CouchPotato.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "CouchPotato.py", line 184, in
    server_start()
  File "CouchPotato.py", line 84, in server_start
    'server.socket_port':          int(ca.get('global', 'port')),
  File "/Users/daa/Desktop/CouchPotato/app/config/configApp.py", line 32, in get
    return value.strip()
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'strip'

Any thoughts on supporting downloading of subtitles as of my suggestion: http://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotat ... s#issue/77 ?

I can't remember if you already answered this and I can't find the forums "Search in this thread" feature.


To shortly recap, the suggestion is to add support for a python module, called periscope (http://code.google.com/p/periscope/). It is a module that can be integrated into existing applications and therefor most of the work should already be done.
It downloads subtitles based on a movie hash, which ensures that subtitles are always 100% correct. This is also needed for us, since CP renames the files, so downloading subtitles based of scene releases will not work.

That would be really nice indeed. :)

Note: in XBMC there is, however, already a pretty good script available for downloading subtitles (OpenSubtitles OSD). In Plex/Nine (which is what I'm using) it's currently missing (was working in Plex/Eight) but will be implemented in a later stage. You could therefore argue that implementing it would be doing "double work".

I am aware. MediaPortal has similar features, atleast in the My Tvseries plugin. However the MediaPortal implementation is based only on filenames and not on movie-hashes, making it a bit dificult to determine the correct subtitle when in the GUI. I am not aware how XBMC handles this.

It could be considered double work, but I would argue that the work should actually be done in the backend downloader, and not in the GUI MediaPlayer. CP (and sickbeard for tv-series) already handles downloading of the video files - it would make sense to also let it handle downloading of extra files like trailers (which it already does), subtitles and perhaps even Fan-Art and covers.
The reason for this is that CP is running 24/7 (for most of us anyway). This means that the extra files would be instantly downloaded when available. If the downloading is handled in the GUI, they will be downloaded only after the GUI is started - at which point they might (in theory atleast) be too late since at this point you actually need the files.

I like all my stuff downloaded automatically, for increased Couchyness (can this become a word, please) and WAF. And in my opinion the best thing is a backend solution that handles the downloading of all of these things.

I'm a huge fan of automating it all as well, so I agree on the Couchyness and (my gf will agree on) the WAF. ;)

Ruud, can you make it happen? :D

With the build in update-mechanism .. I believe there is not really a need to do the git pull
But I might be wrong ....
