Extracting

First my setup for SABnzb+

Version: 0.4.2
OS: Windows XP Pro
Install-type: Windows Zip
Skin (if applicable): Default
Firewall Software: None
Are you using IPV6? No

My quetion is when auto-unraring, is there the option/ability to have it not extract to a subfolder with the name of the nzb?

ie.

Temp Download Folder:
D:\Newsgroups\Downloading

Completed (Extracted Downloads):
D:\Newsgroups\Extracted

Looking for NZBs:
D:\Newsgroups\NZB

If am downloading tvshow.S01E02.nzb (Loading via NZB auto-load folder), once its complete it will extract to D:\Newsgroups\Extracted
\tvshow.S01E02 with the contents being tvshow.S01E02.avi and tvshow.S01E02.nzb.

I would like to have all TV shows automatically go to their respected show folder, without any subfolders.

D:\Newsgroups\Extracted\TVShow - would have all episodes of the show TV Show (Using categories, through RSS Accepting/Processing them is my preferred choice).
D:\Newsgroups\Extracted\Friends - Would have all episodes of friends etc, etc.

My problem is that when extracted it automatically puts the AVI is a subfolder of TVShow or Friends, which i then have to manually go in, Cut the AVI file and Paste it in the parent directory of that subfolder and delete the subfolder. Making a simple automatic task manual. (I was using Newsleecher and having all files extracted to D:\Newsgroups\Extracted\ then manually moving/moving with a batch file to their respected folders, but the lack of RSS support in Newsleecher turned me to SABnzb+).

Please let me know if any other information is required. Thanks in advance for the help, it's greatly appreciated.

You have two options:
Use the TV season support (for explanations see Wiki).
You you write a simple user defined script that moves the files and let SABnzbd run that at the end of a job.
