Newzbin and RSS

Post by Chucky5150 »

Yup yet another topic on this. Sorry, I must be blind or a no0b maybe both  :o

I've searched, I'm just not understanding it I guess.

I get the RSS linkage just fine and Google reader even asks to add it when I try to open the link.

As I understand it the problem has to do with the ...\x26fauth\...

so that would leave me with something like:
http://www.newzbin.com/browse/group/p/a ... eed\x3drss\

That URL works fine in firefox.
In SABnzbd+ I get WARNING [RSS] Failed to retrieve RSS

I know I must be missing something simple. I just can't seem to get it.
/me's a noob

Thank you.

URL-s cannot contain backslashes, so this not a proper URL.
That Firefox accepts it is an entirely different matter.

Where did you get this URL?

That was a copy and paste from newzbin

I thought it looked odd like that.

There is something odd going on with your encoding, should be:

Code: Select all
