Hi All

My feed seems to be getting all the duplicates that is getting posted. So in my feed i have *the*show*s01e*  now it sees on the site there is a file called the show s01e1 this day.  So it will download it

Now there is another post called the show s01e01 and it gets that one as well.  How can i stop this for happening.  I have ticked Duplicates in SABnzdb.

Dose any one have a script that looks at the file name and sees if it is there it leaves it.

Thanks

Duplicate detection only works for titles that are 100% identical.
So multiple posts with slightly different titles will all be downloaded.
For more sophistication you should use the program SickBeard (easy to google)
as a front end to SABnzbd.

i have another Question about this.

1. SAB has my RSS Feed setup with my filers. = So this downloads Auto

2. SickBeard is now setup with all the same shows and all the SAB Settings

Q - What works where? is SickBeard only for Duplicates etc..?  Will my RSS Feed still work and be on Auto Downloads?

I'm not familiar with SickBeard myself.
It has been discussed quite a bit on this forum.
