How would you like to see it? just all files in 1 folder?

There isn't a option to do that but i guess if you can program in python, you can change it.

Are you just trying to get all your TV shows in the same folder? Or something more?

And what operating system are you running? Windows XP or Vista or a UNIX OS?
For Windows your best shot is to make a command prompt (dos) batch file.
See http://sabnzbdplus.wiki.sourceforge.net/External+Script for the variables you can put into the script.

If you want to use the "TV & Movie Script" that was made by Rascalli (http://pastebin.com/f20152ed3) put a cut and paste commands on line 120.

Just use the new TV sorting in SABnzbd 0.4 -- you can grab the source code from the SourceForge SVN trunk.
SABnzbd 0.4 ohh my!!

is it stable to use daily on a productive system?

In the upper script from the link that is in the quote, go to line 118. Here you will find:

Code: Select all

116. else
117. echo "Couldn't copy(too many files or no files?)" >> /var/log/sab_proc.log
118. fi
119. 
120. 
121. 
122. echo "Done!" >> /var/log/sab_proc.log
123. fi
Between line 119 and 121 you can add your own commands AFTER the postprosessing script has done all the things it does with tv shows.
So, you need to copy the files from the nzb name folder to the main TV folder and remove the files and folder that are left in the original place.
