stanpete: can you post or PM me your changes to allow for less-than ideal filetypes? While I'm more than willing to wait for a 720p version to get posted, the wife most certainly is not.
Well, basically all I did was to let it search for the version you specified. And if it doesn't find a match it will search again without the
video tag. The results then get sorted by size and it will pick the biggest one...
So if you are looking for 720p but there are only xvid and iphone versions out, it will automatically download the
biggest of those. So this also means you will always get the newest episodes even if your tag doesn't match.
It was only a quickt hack and may not help everybody but I like it that way.

Edit: To be precise - I think what I changed is exactly what you want ;-)

Sorry, I never got around to posting the modified code, had a hard disk failure that screwed me up completely, anyway. Heres the modified code that acts just as the original (ie without stanpetes changes to video type). If you prefer this option feel free to use this.

Thanks thaylok, great little application
I use it to dump nzbs in a sabnzbd 'watched' directory. I dont know why everyone is trying so hard to send nzbid's instead
I found that it doesnt 'roll' through seasons. For example say Show 1 is currently on episode 5x10. I currently have 4x24 which is the last of season 4. hellavcr does not grab 5x01 etc. I manually edited tv.xml with 5x00 to fetch all of season 5.
Posters also didnt display in firefox for me. Not a big deal for me though.
Thanks for the app

I personally dont run my LAMP stack on the same box that I run sabnzbd on so that why I like having hellavcr send the nzb via API, but, thats just personal preference.
re: the posters not showing in ff, did you chmod the posters directory to 777? Hellavcr caches them in the directory and needs to be able to write there.

ah yes, it was a permission issue thanks
I need one more feature in this thing, just a way to only download shows with NO subtitles.

see my post above yours.
you need to edit the hellavcr.php if you use a password protected sabnzbd install.
And seems there is a new version of hellavcr out... :/

Version 0.5 just came out
from
http://code.google.com/p/hellavcr/
Current Version: 0.5 (1/15/2009)
NEW
* #48, added an error message on index.php if cURL is not found
* #56, added 'timezone_24hrmode' variable to enable 24 hour format for when the show airs
* #61, format and language are optional settings
* #47, add 'update_show_name' variable to auto update the show name with whatever tvrage has
FIXED
* #60, twitter class fixed (wasn't sending messages)
* #55, added delay to help when queuing a lot of things in hellanzb mode
* #62, remove / in the nzb filename
* #51, sort by upcoming fully works now
* #59, more strict on show names when searching newzbin
* #58, & fixed for use in show name
NOTES
* make sure to backup your tv.xml file before upgrading
* use the new config file and plug in your settings
* make sure your show names match exactly what newzbin uses in their postings (year, the, a, /, country code, etc), bug #59 makes the search more strict but helps with generic show names
* be careful using 'update_show_name', tvrage doesn't always seem to match newzbin
Seem to be some layout improvements also

Undisclosed one more thing to add:
in hellavcr.php in the Case is a if($nzb_downloaded) place that also @ the sabnzbd case
is newzbin protection since it only allows 5 requests a min or so
