Not working right?

Post by suckmykiss »

Hey, all! The last few days sab has been working on the same few downloads. I didn't really pay attention to it until today when I realized no data is transferring. I've also had numerous failed downloads over the week. I checked my servers and the 3 I am using are working okay.

I've also noticed that it's skipping new episodes for download, showing them as skipped as opposed to downloading them or showing them as wanted.

I am still fairly new at all of this so please be gentle. I am running on Windows 8.1, Sickbeard and am using astraweb, blocknews and newsdemon for my nzbs. I'm a Mac person, but purchased this laptop to solely use for XBMC.

As an aside, for a few days astraweb was being skipped and all of my data was coming from blocknews, even though astraweb is my main one and the other two are showing as backups. I've went through 17GBs with blocknews in two days, which was baffling since I know people who have been on the same 10GB plan for a year, since it's only a back up.

Thank you in advance for the help!

PS Have also tried to do a sab restart and so far it hasn't fixed anything. A few times it's just errored out and then others it's went back to the DL screen

What is reported in the download report of each item?
(Click on the history entries).
For most downloads that fail, the cuplrit is a DMCA takedown request.

Hi! Thank you for responding. :) I've fixed all of my issues except for the failed downloads (happens mostly with Big Bang theory and Revolution) and the latest episodes of the show not downloading- Ellen Degenerous and Wahlburgers. When I check in Sickbeard those episodes just show as skipped, even though the show was added before the recent episodes.

This next question isn't a sabnzbd question, but I was wondering if anyone know how to share my windows laptop with my mac? I'd like to watch XBMC on my mac as well, and hope to be able to do that by connecting to my windows laptop.
