Is the required words field going to get the capability for 'OR' statements? I'd like to force it to require 'Bluray OR HDDVD', at the moment I can only force one or the other :/ My main reason for this is that CP keeps downloading HDTV rips that are just labelled 720p on NZBMatrix (not CPs fault I know, should have been posted better).

Hello,
I am not at my home computer at the moment but thought I would ask anyway. Last night everything was working good, then my computer shut down and now I can not get CP to start up. I restarted my pc...nothing. I physically clicked the couchpotato.exe file...nothing. Looking in the Task Manager, I can see that it has not started. The CP log file just says "initiallizing db", then nothing. I have Sickbeard and SAB running on this pc and they still work. I tried renaming the db file and letting cp create a new one...it did but still did not start up. I tried overwriting the couchpotato.exe file with the one I had downloaded and still nothing. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be my problem? I am running Windows 7 32 bit system.
Thanks,
Mark

Seems like the db is corrupt. What happens when you rename the db-file and start CP up? Does the logfile contain anything else than "initialize db"? Did you check that the port CP is trying to run on isn't occupied?
Need help? Check out my
XBMC Frodo Guide. It contains full featured guides to Sickbeard and CouchPotato as well.

Have had CP installed for about week now, but every other movie I download fails (pieces missing etc.). Is this common with CP or have I done something wrong? Have the full setup (Couch Potato, SABnzbd, Sickbeard - solely using NZBMatrix as my provider running on Vista).

I'm going to post this again in case it was missed the first time, in hopes that I'll receive at least a reply.
Couch Potato needs to have a simple checkbox that will have it bypass folders with BDMV folders. Too often a bluray movie will accidentally get downloaded to my regular movie folder that is processed by CP. It removes the first stream (I'm assuming, definitely not the largest), renames it "Streamlined.Swing (1938)" and deletes all the other stream files. Super annoying and a super waste of time. I get 4.5 MB/s dl speed, which is the only thing that's stopped me from simply removing CP and doing it manually.

Anyone have any ideas why CP doesn't seem to remove movies from my wanted list after downloading it?
I think it might have something to do with the fact that I'm using a profile with days set to wait for better quality as 0.

Is there anyway to turn off auto-check? I like the concept of this and would rather use it as a running queue that I can manually do a search on versus having it auto search ever X amount of time.

Couch Potato rarely finds movies for me, is this so for other folks? Could it be setting? Or is this just how this thing works. Thanks
