Im a noob so bare with me here. I had V1 all setup and didn’t have any problems until I upgraded to V2. I’am able to fetch the desired tv series episodes I want but when it moves the episode to the TV shows directory it pops up as a folder with the episode in it. This is how I have it setup…
All completed downloads E:\Altbinz\Completed
Where all my Tv shows are E:\Media\TV Shows
I have NZBdrone for renaming my tv shows and SABNZB is not. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can’t figure out what went wrong. Thanks
Just set Drone Factory (on Settings -> Download Client) to E:\Altbinz\Completed that should do it.
Well thats the problem. I already have it set on that. I can’t figure it why it wouldnt put the episode in the correct tv show folder. Does it matter if SABnzb put the temporary files in E:\Altbinz\Incomplete then once downloaded it goes to E:\Altbinz\Completed
I had all the same settings in V1 and it worked flawlessly. Ever since I upgraded to V2 it started acting funny.
No, thats how you want to set it up. You should turn on Trace logging (Settings -> General) and then check the log file (not the DB logs), System -> Logs -> Files to see why its not importing. The import happens every minute.
I am having a similar issue as well. I am downloading a series called: Hebrides-.Islands.on.the.Edge. NzbDrone moved episode one with no issues, it then moved episode 2 after 20 minutes, which was odd in my opinion.
I then noticed that the file was moved into the series folder using this name: Hebrides-.Islands.on.the.Edge.S01E02.720p.BluRay.x264-TRiPS.
(1) How come it took so long to move the files?
(2) Why does it use the release name when it is moved and then gives it the proper name after a while?
It now moves the file using the release name, then deletes any existing files (if any) then does a final move (rename) to the proper file name. This ensures NzbDrone is able to move the file (its not otherwise write-locked) and solves the previous issue you had with failed downloads causing valid files to be deleted.
It could take a while to move if other background jobs are running, something like a metadata and disk rescan would take about that length of time (it does for me). Looking at your logs thats whats happening… its doing what it does every 12 hours, updating episode metadata and scanning your episode files for changes.
Thanks for the explanation. I just thought something was wrong.
