RSS feed - How to download everything, not just new

[ozfactor]

So I have setup Sabnzbd with an RSS feed from my indexing program: https://github.com/nZEDb/nZEDb

I seem to be able to get about the first 200 items posted to the RSS feed. All is well there, however even when scheduling is enabled and I manually try to force a download of the RSS feed, I get no new downloads passed to SABNZDB. I want to be able to download EVERYTHING from the RSS feed. I have a specific reason for this. I read in the documentation that the RSS only does new stuff...well thats fine but what if I want EVERYTHING posted to my RSS feed? I have properly setup my filter to capture and weed out what I don't want.

I need to know how to be able to trick SABNZBD to download everything on the RSS feed. I can provide log files or screenshots if requested.

SABnzbd will only automatically download when it does a scheduled readout of a feed.
The very first read-out AND each subsequent manual read-out will not lead to automatic downloading.

Thank you for the info. Is there a way to schedule the readout of a feed every hour? I'm only seeing the ability to have it done once per day using the scheduler. I've set it to 00:00 and checked each day but that says to me, at mightnight of every day, do the RSS. How do I set this to the readout every hour?

Also, when I'm not using the scheduler and have the SABNZBD check the RSS feed every 15 minutes, nothing downloads.

The RSS overview page lets you set an interval (bottom of the page). 60 means a readout every hour.
There a randomization, which lets SABnzbd pick a minute within the interval,
to avoid that all SABnzbd instances to hit an indexer at the same time.
The alternative is to use the scheduler to set specific readout moments.

For automatic readout to work, you need to "check" the box of the feed on the RSS overview page.

I think what is happening is that SABNZBD is downloading the first 100 items off the RSS feed and downloading anything new. What I really need it to do is download all of the 22,000 items off the list. I want all the stuff on my RSS feed, not just the first 100 items.

I've got the filtering down using the terms I want to accept but I don't think SABNZBD is processing RSS items older than 100. Is there some place to change this so that the RSS maybe gets read in full or it gets read from bottom to top?

I'm not aware of any limitation, although I have never tested with 22.000 items.
It could be that the RSS library is limited somehow, but I don't know.
Currently I don't have the time to setup a test for this.
