categories - it doesn't automatically place in folders

Post by Symbiot »

Hi

I am new to sabnzbd.
I believe that the program is set to automatically placing downloaded files into category folders?

unfortunately mine doesn't.

when I start a download, I can select a category yes, via the dropdown menu, but isn't sabnzbd supposed to do this automatically?

or am I missing something?

Where do you suppose SABnzbd get the category info from?
When you use newzbin reports numbers to get your NZB file it will owrk automatically,
otherwise you have to determine the category.

Have you read a bit of the Wiki?

hi

I use newzbin yes..

I just tested with a file from a.b.movies in the category 'movies'.

It starts the download, but does not 'preselect' any category. I have to do this manually.
