Completed download left in _unpack_filename folder

Post by shortskoolbus »

Using SABnzbd for the first time so please bear with me here...

I just did a trial run with a download using drone and SABnzbd. Everything seemed to work fine except two things

1) the completed file was left in a folder called "_UNPACK_filename", and there was the same folder in the parent directory just called "filename"

2) The TV sort feature didn't seem to work. I had it structured as /show name/episode name S##E##.ext. But when i was notified that the download was complete, it left it in /series title/_UNPACK_filename/124lk12j4lkjsdf.ext <--- filename was a bunch of numbers/letters, and also created the other folder i mentioned.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

i guess its screwing up NZBdrone as well, since the _UNPACK_ folder is protected. It can't rename and then grab that file and move it over to the correct location even after it's finished unpacking the file.

NZBdrone should keep its hands of folders names __unpack__xxx.
In analogy to SickBeard it should wait for a end-of-job-scripts from SABnzbd to get a trigger.
