You're welcome

And nothing else happens. No NZB is retrieved.

Hi, try the 'reset rss' option.
What is happening is the script keeps a record of the most recent link seen on the feed. (last link).

If the nzbs were listed earlier than that link, then it wont download them.
Reset rss clears the 'last link' record.

I have to think of better wording (any suggestions?).

That did the trick. It grabbed an nzb off my list and processed it when i clicked Process Feed now.

But when it was done, it didn't grab the next one, even though there were about 10 found when I did the test.

When will it grab the others?

I tried stopping and starting the service but when it starts up again it just says this:

05:11 Sun 23 Nov : Completed mode=LIVE : last link = http://www.tvnzb.com/nzb/15306

I know there are other files out there that it could grab. Why isn't it grabbing them at start up?

Hi, There is a difference between 'test' and 'live'.

'Live' will use an RSS feed (which will normall only have very recent items).

'Test' will search back through the history, by browsing the pages on the normal website. This searches through old posts just to help you check your patterns are working.


So when you do your test , you picked up all of the old matches, but when you do 'live' you only get recent items. (any may not get any matches at all).



My thinking was that if I want older stuff that's already been posted , I'd just download the nzbs directly from the website as it would not be present in an RSS stream anyway.

I could add an option to process older pages now, but I'll wait to see if there is demand for it. It will probably get confusing as you start adding more tv programs to the list, as you would only want to do this for new patterns. It would need thinking about, and probably a lot of effort for little gain.

If you have any more experience to share, or suggestions, I'm very interested though.

PS Newsleech's RSS feed doesnt make it easy to find the NZBs to download, so I created a fake RSS feed from the first page of the website.

Ok, that makes sense.

It only grabs the mentalist every time, and that's the newest show.

Now, if I stop and start it again, will it grab the mentalist again? even though it has already grabbed it?

Thanks a lot for all your help.

As soon as I saw NZB support I was thinking of creating the same application, but it would run in windows. I didn't know how to retrieve the NZB based on the information returned from the RSS feed. Since you made this, I don't have to worry about it

Thanks again!

Hi, if you stop and start it it should work ok. That's what the 'last link' is for. It records the newest link it has seen on the stream, and stores this as the 'last link', and when it runs the next time it process the new links until it sees the previous 'last link'

Glad you like it. There are a few windows NZB/RSS grabbers already knocking around
In the RSS feed is a field that typically takes you to the news story. On some NZB sites this is a direct link to download the NZB. On others, it takes you to a web page concerning the show, or to further select files that will make up the NZB. Easiest way to see is to browse to an RSS URL and then do 'view source'

If you already have a start_app.sh on your internal drive the missing lines
to add below #M_A_R_K_E_R_do_not_remove_me are

Code:

ln -s /share/Apps/tvnzb/tvnzb.cgi /opt/sybhttpd/default/.
/share/Apps/tvnzb/tvnzb.sh start

using a Unix compatible text editor.

I guess before "exit 0".
So is the following correct?

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#

#M_A_R_K_E_R_do_not_remove_me
cd /opt/sybhttpd/localhost.drives/HARD_DISK/bin/ && ./telnetd -l /bin/sh &

ln -s /share/Apps/tvnzb/tvnzb.cgi /opt/sybhttpd/default/.
/share/Apps/tvnzb/tvnzb.sh start

exit 0

Looks good to me

i see the correct links but i also noticed that its not downloading anything now in tvnzb.sh.

i made some changes in tvnzb.sh like changing source like this:

# There are two nzb streams. tvnzb and newzleech
#
# *tvnzb*
# has more consistent nzbs but it can be quite a few hours behind
# and it doesnt carry some more obscure shows.
# Also a single nzb can only be downloaded 5 times.

# *newzleech*
# Has raw autogenerated nzbs. Early publish. Wide variety.
# May be missing pars. Only scans alt.binaries.tv
# It is not using a real stream (no direct nzb links) but a fake
# stream derived from the from the web page.

source=tvnzb
#source=newsleech

plus this :

owner="nmt:nmt"

owner="nmt:1234"

because the default is nmt:1234 right?

but after that its not working am i missing something?

Does a 'test' work? If so its probably OK, you just need to do a reset on the rss stream.

Nope nmt:nmt is right The second 'nmt' is the group name, not the password.

now i get error:

/opt/sybhttpd/default/tvnzb.cgi: line 548: /opt/sybhttpd/default/tvnzb.sh: not found

what is the problem now?

Hi, TV_HOME must not be set correctly. I would download the original script and start fresh. There isnt any need to make changes to scripts at the moment.

[RiChaDo]

well i did that i deleted everything.
downloaded and made the folders and putting the files in it like the way it's explained.then i site chmod 775 and changed the example list of series and added my list of series after that i go 2 the tvnzb.html tru the media tank then when i check the root of the nmt i see awk.in plus the start.sh so thats good right? but at the tvnzb interface i get the same error (/opt/sybhttpd/default/tvnzb.cgi: line 548: /opt/sybhttpd/default/tvnzb.sh: not found) and its downloading some series i added but even ones i did not add but what i dont get is that when i try 2 add my series tru the pc that it does not save my series its empty but its downloading dexter and some other series i did not add.
