SABnzbd Forums

I recently upgraded the installations of SABNzbd on both of my Synology NAS's to 0.7.17. Since that time, the series sorting is shortening the filenames by removing all the extra info on the end of the filename. For isntance:

If I downloaded NZB labeled: TvShow.S02E04.720p.BluRay.x264-POST . It used to sort those in to TVShow - S02E04 - 720p BluRay x264-POST.

Now, it sorted in to: TvShow - S02E04 - Show Title Extension. It takes all the extra stuff off and tags on a title.

How do I swap this back?

It's a bug to be solved in the next release.
If you don't need the shortening, just set the cutoff value in Config->Special higher.

Hi. Thanks for the info. I do not see a Config - Special setting.

Entry folder_max_length, set it to 256.

It' is already set to 256.

So it's not the file name shortening that does this.
It could be the meta-data coming from the indexer that causes this.
SABnzbd now processes extra tags that contain cleaned-up series titles and episode names.
If you don't want that: disable Config->Special->enable_meta

Thanks! That did the trick.

Hi. I had to reload SABNZBD on my Synology this past week. v2.3.2 I'm having the naming issue again. I've looked for the enable_meta switch, but it's no longer there. How do I turn this feature off?

Thanks.

Figured it out. Please ignore.
