multiple nzb blackholes easy organising

Post by DeXeS »

Is it possible to make multiple nzb blackholes so that when you put the nzb blackhole 1 it is downloaded to e.g. c:\mydownloads\movies\ and if you put a second nzb in blackhole 2 it is downloaded to e.g. c:\mydownloads\games\

or with 1 nzb blackhole with multiple folders inside so if you create a folder inside the nzb blackhole called testfolder, the nzb file you put in the nzb blackhole in testfolder gets downloaded to c:\mydownloadfolder\testfolder\

Don't know if it's possible but would be a great addition to SABnzbd+

I quite like your second idea, would be pretty useful for people not adding via newzbin. Going to have to ask shypike if it is feasible to stick into the directory scanning code, monitoring multiple folders at once may prove to be a performance hit (for people who add loads of folders anyway).

The second suggestion with folders inside the blackhole would be great.

PS. try NZBS.org for those precious nzb's and in my opinion newzbin isnt as easy to get an overview of what to get..

Thanks. Would be great. I don't use newzbin so I can't use most post prosessing scripts.

We are working on something else.

1. Have a selectable category for each job
2. Have a selectable post-proc user script for each job
3. User-defined categories associated with a destination dir and a default script
4. Category prefixes to NZB names. So if you name a job "{{Unix}}Ubuntu 7.04.iso.nzb"
    it will have category "Unix" and its directory name will be "Ubuntu 7.04.iso"

This should give you what you need based on what you wrote.

That was also something I thought about  ;D. Is it possible to self adjust those prefixes easily by editing the source/configuration screen in sabnzbd?

Me is very happy  ;D
