Multiple RSS Feeds

Post by psychokid »

Hi
It's psychokid from a damp and miserable NE England.

I've just started using this application and so far I'm really impressed so thanks to the developers.

I've managed to download my first binary via the 'watched' folder but haven't managed to use RSS feeds just yet.

OK on to my question, I have added two different RSS feeds and set up exactly the same filters for each feed. Is this necessary or am I going to create problems for myself like duplicate downloads etc.?

I have selected the 'Do not download same job twice' option and specified a folder for the 'Backup folder for .nzb:'

Thanks in advance for any advice and please be gentle  ;)

Version: (0.4.12)
OS: (Windows XP SP3)
Install-type: (Windows Installer)
Skin (if applicable): (Default)
Firewall Software: (XP SP3 Firewall)
Are you using IPV6? (no)
Is the issue reproducible? (unknown at present)

I don't think there should be an issue with different feeds + same filters. Problems may arise if you do two of the same feed + different filters, though.

OK cheers

I'm just wondering what will happen if the binary I want comes through on Feed 1 then some time later it comes through on Feed 2. Assuming they're the same file then the duplication option should come in to affect? If they're from different groups (meaning the'll have different file names) then will a filter of say *Dexter*S04* mean that 2 versions will be downloaded?

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Your assumptions are correct.
