SAB not unpacking anymore!

Post by n3tsa »

Hi Guys,

Been reading some usefull info so figured i'd become a member and see if i could get some help on a problem i just cant solve.

All i want SAB to do is unpack the files unpon completion and put it in the folder. but all i am getting is the raw files themselves on the completion of a download and nothing more.

It must be noted that during the process of setting it up to work with sickbeard i prob changed a setting and stuffed it myself because it used to work absolutely fine before.

its looking at the script to auto move to Sick beard, and obviously nothing happens coz sickbeard will only move media files.

In the Queue when i turn on the options the processing tab says DOWNLOAD on all my items. if i click U it does unpack it but does not get rid of the files, and sickbeard will move them ALL.  but i dont want to have to manually select U on every one now.

if i change the settings in the config Default Post-Processing: to +Unpack it does nothing, or +delete it still does nothing.

is this happening because maybe i changed the setting to NONE and added some NZB's and they got assigned the NONE setting and now it wont auto change back?

Please help its sooooooo frustrating!!!

Thank a lot, any help much appreciated.

Category default changes do not affect existing entries in the queue.
However, you can manually change each attribute in the queue.
Set them all to +Delete.

hi thanks for reply.

well i changed one to +D and let it download turned up unpacked and worked.

and if i set sickbeard to not take associated files as well it moves the video itself and the .tbn file and the system info file only. do i need the system info file? why is it taking this one to? (just if anyone know i know this isnt sickbeard forum)

so shypike my settings in the category for tv should be: under the processing box DEFAULT
then in config - switches - Default post processing - +D
and that will take effect for all new files added not existing ones in the queue that i had NONE selected when i added them?

is my thinking correct?
