your not gona believe what my problem was i was looking at /mnt/disk1/movies when actually it was /mnt/disk1/Movies im speechless

i was just confused by the HOW TO becasue it didnt say to carry on so i was expecting to see something happen when i click on save configurations. but never mind ill carry on tongiht and hope for the best

no i havent i thought maybe something should happen at that point but becasue it didnt i stopped so should carry on through the whole process and then check at the end ?

ill create a another folder copy one movie into it and see if it picks that up whats the best way to copy a file without using windows shall i just use midnight commander i reckon that original movie folder is messing me about

any ideas?

What about me ??

hi im having a go at this and have not got very far i got as far as putting the details in the web server where my nzbgetweb folder is and the port 8084 but when i try to go to http://tower:8084/ i get nothing should i see something or do i need to do more first? actually the web server wizard wont save my settings no matter how many time i click on save configuraion nothing happens.

i found the below on the sabnzbd wiki about sabnzbd and download speeds "2.Make sure python-yenc is installed (yenc-0.3.tar.gz or higher). If you are on windows it will already be present. This will speed up decoding as it will use C code instead of python code. The logging will say at startup whether this module has been installed. If you have installed using a repository/pre-built package you will likely already have it." im not sure if i have this installed i cant find it in my /boot/packages/ does this mean i dont have it installed can someone help and show me how i can check if i have this installed please?

i ll get those for you this evening when i get home sorry .. i did think about that last night but crying babies and screaming wife didnt help ...

Hi I was playing with this last night and i alsmost got everything working except something strange going on. I installed it all from the unmenu package and it all seems to install ok except there was a part that said KILL 5642... some numbers in red just after it installs the git.... something apologies for not being clear. HOwever when i install the air video package on my iphone and connect to the server i have to type in the server IP as apposed to the name for some reason but thats not a biggie. I have 2 shares like below in the conf Movies:/mnt/disk1/movies,TVShows:/mnt/disk1/TVShows this is the interesting bit the TV shows seems to work absolutey perfect they come up and i can watch them and everything. However it just wont pick up my movies for some reason, i have checked the path and everything twice over but still no joy. Any ideas why this could be happening? could it be a permissions thing? I did once have a strange problem with this folder once before and i have to change permissions

you could be right i may go for the upgrade to 50meg iv heard thats on a seperate line/server or something and if the neighbours are not on it then i will get good download

Thanks Neilt0 I will look into nzbget, i can think sabnzbd is taking up too much of my CPU power and hence the speeds start to slow down, unless my neighbour is hacking into my wifi ... i doubt but i have seen him use torrents and he is alwasy looking at graphs and things...anyway the main reason i use sabnzbd is because i use it with sickbeard and couchpotatoe could these be used with nzbget?

on another note is there a different sabnzbd equivelant for unraid

i dont use torrents but i know what you mean nevermind i did google and found one other person with a similiar problem but his got fixed becasue he had his retention set differently so im not sure, is there a way i can check the config files or anywhere that could tell me whats wrong? i checked the sabnzbd config files but doesnt tell me much, its wierd becasue some files come down really good. so i know its got nothing to do with the age of the files i wonder if its got to do with the number of files ??

If there is heavy traffic on our network that is using your Internet it can cause the speeds in SABnzbd to slow down. That initial fast speed is probably the "turbo" feature of your Cable Internet provider. when you say *our im thinking you mean *your and if im not using the internet for anything else then why would the speeds slow down. I dont understand i thought the whole point of subscribing to newsgroups is so you get full downloads. Especially if thats all your doing ... i apreciate if im doing alot of internet browsing etc..at the same time it might effect my download speed but not if im doing nothing else.

Ok apologies for the late feedback but i managed to solve this by uninstalling XBMC and re-installing it everything seesm to be working now thanks you all for your help and in true Steve Jobs style.....one last thing When i download using sabnzbd my speeds seem to be really good for a while and then they go down to something like 275kbs and it seesm to be this figure and it doesnt go any higher than this or lower. and then if i stop it for a while and go back to it aftere a few hours it starts a good speed and then goes down again. Although sometimes it stays a good speed for a the duration of the whole download, so this tells me its very sporadic i have upgraded my RAM to 4gb it was originaly 1gb and i dont think this has made any difference. Any one got any other ideas as to why this might be ?

Ok just to give you an update I checked permissions in sabnzbd and there was already 777 there but without the zero so I left it as it was ... I then tried to change the source in xbmc from disk1 to the user share and that's when it got interesting. Basically after I did this all my files became hidden again !!! So I had to go into cmd and run attrib -s -r etc. And then I could see them again I changed the source back to disk1 scanned the library and they all showed up except this time you could see the fan art thumbnails but the titles were missing lol so the list was half empty for some movies although you could scroll through and see the picture and synopsis etc. I think xbmc is fubared. Any more ideas ? Well atleast I can see light at the end of the tunnel

also what do i do with the movies i have already downloaded? do i need to copy them back to the completed folder so the processing thing works

0777 to my sabnzb.ini do i just add it as you have typed below "permissions = "0777"" if so where do i add it at the end or at the beginning or the middle? i thought it was permissions 777 to give permissions to everything

well at the minute its actually pointing to the shares i think but will have to double check when i get back but when i browse through SMB via xbmc i dont remember seeing the disk1 but maybe i have to type it in manually i will have a look tonight. I can see the files in file mode and it plays ok but the library doesnt see them ill try the shares thing tonight. I think the scrapers should be ok becasue it scrapes everything else although these particular movies have been downloaded using couchpotato and couchpotato srapes for NFO and JPG and fanart so im not sure if i browse the files i can see the fanart in the background but not for the folder thumbnail but ill try it again tonight and will let you know what happens but i think ill stop messing about with the permissions My brother thinks its a permissions thing but im not convinced

Well the strange thing is it did scan before these movies were downloaded and I have also tried manual scan aswell. I think I might go for a uninstall and install the latest stable build of xbmc. The strange thing is it picks up the tvshows perfectly fine even new ones iv downloaded

Hi I have pretty much finished installing everything on my first NAS build and am very impressed with sick sab couch. However I have one last little niggle. I downloaded a couple of movies using couch it downloaded ok and moved the file to it's correct location and so I boot up my xbmc machine ( windows7) start xbmc and it fails to scan the new files even though the nfo files and jpg are there. I initially has the hidden share issue so I fixed that with permissions and stripping any windows hidden flags etc. But it still won't scan the new files. I'm stumped I don't know what to try next iv changed permissions deleted nfo file but nothing works. Any one got any ideas? Please help a newb nearly at the finishing line. Just thought id add to this and let people know my unraid is now fully complete and all working ok ill give my feedback later.

thanks for the prompt response

Hi Sorry to add to this thread but im have a similiar problem my paths are below /mnt/cache/.custom/sabnzbd/downloads/complete/movies/ to /mnt/disk1/movies/ i get message saying the watch folder does not exist.. does it have to be case sensitive. Also is it a problem because of the .custom folder. I read somewhere the '.' is an issue.? thanks in advance for helping a newbie
