Confused between Completed Downloading Handling and Drone Factory Options + How do I Download Backlog?

Help & Support
1

Hi guys, two quick questions.

Installed NzbDrone last night and loving it (migrated from SickBeard). I just have two questions;

The first is about completed download handling. I have NzbDrone send the files over to Sabnzbd as a special category, placing the downloads in a special folder. If I turn on completed download handling, is there any more settings I have to tweak? NzbDrone should be able to look after the downloads? Which means I do not need to use the Drone Factory Options?

The next, is I added a few TV shows. How do I have NzbDrone download all the episodes aired for all the TV shows?

Thanks guys!

Enable CDH and as long as drone can access the pat SAB reports as the extracted folder it will import (if they’re on the same computer, this will work). No need for drone factory.

This is covered in the FAQ on the wiki. https://github.com/NzbDrone/NzbDrone/wiki/FAQ#how-does-nzbdrone-find-episodes

If sab reports the completed download as C:\downloads\completed\the.series.s01e01 and drone can access it, then it will import it automatically, if the path is not accessible (drone and SAB aren’t on the same PC) then it wouldn’t find the path and wouldn’t import it.
