Hi there,

For a week I'm using this wonderful program. After defining all the settings correctly it really works great!

There is only one thing I'm not sure about its working. Maybe I've set something wrong of mayby it could be a bug. Let me explain.

In Config > Folders the Completed Dowload Folder is set to "N:\DOWNLOADS\Nieuwsgroepen"
In Config > Folders the Folder sorting is enabled for TV Sorting. Using the default settings.
In Config > Categories all settings are default. I'm only using the tv category. (Folder/Path = TV; Groups = TV)

For RSS I used settings for tvnzb.com:

When a new download is found from RSS all went fine. The download is placed into:

N:\DOWNLOADS\Nieuwsgroepen\TV\Download S01E01\...

But when downloading from a NZB file (also a TV serie), it is placed in:

N:\DOWNLOADS\Nieuwsgroepen\Download S01E01\...

Image

I think TV Sorting is not using a Category and that is why the download is not placed into the TV folder.
Is there a way to use the TV Category when TV Sorting is used?
Off course I can set the category manually, but some NZB files are imported automaticly.

Thank you for handling my questing.

Kind regards,
CreatoX


Edit:
As you can see, the Mythbusters folder should be in the TV folder. Normally Mythbusters will be automatically downloaded by RSS as well and the problem will not occur. This time I'll tested it with a single Mythbusters NZB file, that's why it is not in the TV folder.

If you are using a "Watched Folder", create a sub folder called TV.
Anything you drop in there will automatically get the TV category.

Alternatively you can prefix the NZB name like this "{{TV}}My Show.nzb".
The latter is probably not useful for you.

@shypike

Thanks. I was not aware of the sub folder method.
So basicly every sub folder in the Watched Folder will be recreated in the Completed Dowload Folder. Cool  ;)

Fast reply b.t.w.
