I have a share called TV Shows. I have it set to "Use cache: No"

I also have a share called to_sort_tv. This is set to "Use cache: Only"

 

The idea is to have files downloaded to to_sort_tv and then have SB post process them from that directory to where they belong in the array (e.g. TV Shows).

The problem is, when SB tries to move it, it still shows up in my cache directory. The funny thing is, it also shows up in the TV Shows share within the array. These files are, evidently, linked somehow b/c when I delete the file in the cache (b/c it's already in the TV Shows share), it is deleted from TV Shows too.

 

Am I overlooking something here? Am I doing something wrong?

Set CouchPotatoe to write directly to a diskshare instead of a usershare. The usershare concept only works partly from within the server, I have had issues like this.

Thanks for the response, Helmonder. Stupid question... if I set CP to write directly to the diskshare, what happens when that disk fills? Am I going to manually need to change my settings to use a diferent disk? Am I not understanding fully?

No, that is a downside, the disk will fill up and you will need to monitor that manually ..

You could just let the mover place the files in the array.
