I guess my version of Sickbeard is out dated. I wish it had an easy to update function like CouchPotato does

my sickbeard version is Alpha2 not sure how to find out what revision i have though

-=jason=-

I have the same issue with sickbeard and not knowing what version is it.

If you used using Ainers guide to get up and running

http://www.ainer.org/?p=747

Then the created init.d script (following his guide) has an updater you can run from commandline.

Just type

/etc/init.d/sickbeard.sh update

That stops sickbeard running, backups your current version to a backup directory, downloads the new one, installs, and restarts (keeping your configs and database).

BTW mine has been alpha 2 even though i have updated it quite often.

I just installed the new version via a git clone now all I have to to to update is do git pull much easier no backing up needed

if you want to install via git clone do this

Code:

sudo /etc/init.d/sickbeard.sh stop
cd ~/ && git clone git://github.com/midgetspy/Sick-Beard.git
mv .sickbeard .sickbeardbackup && mv Sick-Beard .sickbeard
cp .sickbeardbackup/sickbeard.db .sickbeard
cp .sickbeardbackup/config.ini .sickbeard
cp .sickbeardbackup/autoProcessTV/autoProcessTV.cfg .sickbeard/autoProcessTV/
sudo /etc/init.d/sickbeard.sh start

to update in the future

Code:

cd ~/.sickbeard
git pull

Mmmm maybe an idea. I do it the other way as sometimes getting the latest version of sickbeard has broke things for me, so then its REALLY nice having that backup.

I wonder though if this will work more like couchpotato from git ?

Because the option Notify when new versions are available has never done bugger all for me but it does say doesn't work if running from source.

The notify thing only works if you use the compiled versions from the site (i think). Git pull is your best option, as you discovered, for sick-beard updates.

Couchpotato also needs to be the latest version to have the newznab compatible piece in it.

I think the sab integrated piece might be reworked, but currently you can go into your profile on the site, and we'll cookie your browser with SAB info, and this will allow you send nzb's straight to sab.

also, we added ssl https://nzb.su - but that may not work with sickbeard or others--just good for browsing. Still need to add some help/tips to the site for people setting things up.

For those of you wondering about requirements to run, I am running this at home w/ ATT uverse 24 down/2 up, and indexing 110 groups, and can still utilize my full download/upload speed. The downloading I am using compressed headers. I am running it on a Windows 7 box, Amd 5000+ X2 with 2 gig ram, using Xammp as my base. No issues at all.

hm the problem is the lag of foreign files. I really would like to use nzb.su, maybe it is possible to include more foreign files. Right now it is very hard to use sick beard or couch potato with for foreign files.

[flamez]

anyway to use this with lighttpd?

The whole point of this thread is discussing Newznab as software. The nice thing about of newznab is that if you cant find what you are looking for on other indexing sites, it gives you the option of indexing yourself, thus selecting the content you are interested in.

As far as SB/CP being more foreign friendly, you would have to speak to their developers.

As of the moment it hasn't been tested, but if you would like some help attempting it, feel free to join the newznab irc chan for support.

We now have upto date rewrite rules for lighttpd, and a confirmation of it working fine.

The rewrite rules are in the source at /misc/urlrewrite/lighttpd.txt and should be copied into the /www root.

I set this up recently on a spare windows 7 box I had available using XAMPP and it works great on my local network. I haven't come across much documentation on it, but I'm curious if it's possible to add more categories or subcategories? I'm also a bit confused how the blacklist function works. For instance if I wanted to block out items for Android or Foreign languages, etc.

Think I found a bug. RSS Encoding issue.

I have the RSS setup, but they maybe illegal charactors in there at the moment. It's erroring out with -

This page contains the following errors:

error on line 1542 at column 24: Encoding error
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

This is using the Movies - DivX section. Can someone (if they are running the NZB.su site on here) find the offending release and delete it please. RSS is totally screwed because of it.

Hey everyone

Maybe I'm just to stupid but how do I set SABnzbd up to use NZB.su? In step 3 of the installation wizard I entered

Code:

www.nzb.su/rss?t=-2&dl=1&i=<my-id>1&r=<myapitoken>

and 1 (just to see if it works) connection. When I click the button to check the server I always get the following message:

Code:

'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

What am I doing wrong?

Setting up CouchPotato was no problem and I tested it and it works.

Thanks for your help.

Step 3? Step three only gives the option for nzbmatrix or newzbin.....not nzb.su.....
