SAB processing after manually adding nzb
SAB is working great with my CouchPotato and SickBeard installation. However, sometimes I need to manually add an nzb from my indexer for those times when CP and/or SB fail to find what I am looking for. The problem is, SAB just leaves the decompressed files in my complete folder. What I would like is to rename the files and move them to the correct folder on my media server. How do I go about setting that up? Do I need to write my own postprocessing script?
Re: SAB processing after manually adding nzb
Use categories and/or setup Config->Sorting.
You can set a destination path per category and Sorting allows some more manipulation.
You will have to set the category when you upload an NZB.

Re: SAB processing after manually adding nzb
I think I see what you are suggesting, but there is a problem: SAB processes the files and leaves them in my downloads folder. Usually this is perfect because SickBeard and CouchPotato know where to look for things that have been downloaded then. But in my situation, I would like SAB to place the file(s) in my media folder structure because I am not sending them to CP or SB. The exact destination folder will depend on the category (Dad movies, Dad TV, Child Movies, Child TV). The SAB sorting configuration only supports three sorting methods: Series, Generic, and Date. And you can apply whatever categories you have to those three sorting methods, and that's it.
Re: SAB processing after manually adding nzb
You can still set a specific path for each category.
Sorting will simply use the base path of the category as a starting point.
You shouldn't set full paths in Sorting.
