Arguably this is more of a bug with SABnzbd than Watchdog, because as far as I can tell there is no way to tell it to unpack its files in a location other than their final directory. I could also work around this by having watchdog clean the library after deletion, but that takes a long time and it seems wasteful to poll my entire library when I already know that just the one new item was added.

Pretty sure you can. By changing temp directory.

I'm trying to use this service with the default settings to monitor an NFS-mounted share on OpenELEC 4.0 and I keep getting a "HSTP path not found errorr" notification on start-up when it tries to run. I am using the latest beta posted in this thread.

Assuming you typed that correctly, there's no such notification message created by watchdog. Check/post log here.

I'm getting the following error running beta2 on XBMC 13.0 on windows 8.1

17:33:06 T:8748 DEBUG: service.watchdog: <deleted> <V:\tv\Silicon Valley>
17:33:06 T:8748 DEBUG: service.watchdog: skipping <deleted> <V:\tv\Silicon Valley>

I get this when I add a show:

17:33:21 T:8748 DEBUG: service.watchdog: <created> <V:\tv\Silicon Valley\Silicon Valley - 1x06 - Third Party Insourcing.mkv>
17:33:21 T:8748 DEBUG: service.watchdog: <created> <V:\tv\Silicon Valley>

But the show doesn't actually show up in my list. I had the same issue running the latest version in the repo on XBMC 13.

Those lines are not errors and are meaningless without the rest of the log. Post complete log please.
