SABnzbd Forums

Installed SABnzbd 0.5.2 on Vista 32, setup watch folder.  I can drop a nzb (getting them from NZBMatrix) in the folder and all works well. 

Installed SABConnect all works well.

Went to services.nzbmatrix.com categories and selected
TV: Divx/Xvid
TV: DVD
TV: HD
TV: Other
So all are covered.

Under links selected - NZB Download link (VIP Account Holders Only) (which i am).  entered my username, generated the API key and entered that. 

Entered a showname or Show Name (have tried entereing either a single word show or a multi part show name) left the NZB Name selected. 

Clicked Generate RSS XML feed.  Copied that and went back to web interface of SABnzbd > RSS  Entered in a Feed Name, pasted the link and clicked Add. 

Scrolled to the new entry and clicked the box next to the show name and shows Green.  Clicked the Preview button and see the Show Name, next line is the * wont be dled.....  next is Matched nothing is listed there???, under the Not Matched is a listing of shows that DO match the show name that was listed in the RSS feed that I generated, with a * behind them indicating they will not be download.  Which I understand since they were available before I created the feed wont be downloaded.  But shouldn't anything with the name matching the text entered in the RSS feed be listed under Matched, with a *  ? 

So I figured maybe I need to wait for a new show to be available for it to be listed under Matched, but this seems to Not be true either.  All this and I have not even got to the point of using the filters.

Filters:  to exclude anything with 720P I am assuming I enter Reject  *720P* next line would be Require *HDTV* next Require *S01* ?  Or am I off base on this ?


I figured either the troubles NZBMatrix is having lately with the RSS feeds, or something I am missing is probably more the trouble to getting the auto DL to work.
Thanks for any help. 

You still need to add an "Accept" line at the end.
The broadest being "*", but you can add more sophisticated Accept filters.

I can add an Accept with * as the filter as the last one.

But, when the RSS was originally added this was the default, and when I clicked the Preview there still was Nothing listed under the Matched.  I have added a lot of different feeds, I do believe I seen one that did have something under match but do not remember what could have been different that the others would not have anything under the Match section when the only filter was accept *.

Side not to the devs.  Might be helpful if any feed that is created, but not enabled to be listed at the top of the list until it is enabled so it can be found easier when dealing with a large list.  Plus if the feeds were listed 0..9 / A..Z

ok someone replied, I responded then their post was removed?

Since I am not getting any replies am I the only one with this issue, or no one has any idea of the issue I am having?

We normally only remove spam messages.
I don't remember seeing an answer here, but I could be mistaken.

RSS feeds and filtering do work.
I'd have to see some real examples of failing ones.
Please PM the URL and your filters to me.
