Replacing Sickbeard with NZBDrone

[chizh]

On Friday I found 8 episodes across my series that had been set to skipped in SB. Had to set them to wanted to make it find them. Took me best part of an hour to review 60 titles. Other than that I find SB works great. Might give this a whirl though. Need to read up parsing the episodes first though sabtosickbeard works a treat and wouldn't want to mess up my current setup which feeds Plex.

When I told NZBDrone to use TV as the Sab profile it already had sabtosickbeard script set.

My only complaint so far is the calendar, I can't work out how to change the date format from the backwards US style.

Problem solved. I've set up a internet based calendar in Outlook and pointed it at the ics file.

Set it up and has found a few episodes that sick beard never

Loving the fresh feel to it.

I never had a problem grabbing shows in SB or with this.

How did you do this?

NZBDrone added the nzbs to sabnzbd. But then sab tries to use sickbeard to process.

Yeah mine too.

[beerman]

Set the TV profile to Process - Default and Script - Default, leave the Folder/Path blank.

If you intend to run Sick alongside then just create a separate profile called TV2 and tell NZBDrone to use that.

Cheers. So... I change the script to default from my sickbeard script? Cool.

Although... I think the biggest problem was that I pointed it to the wrong folder. I temporarily download them to one drive and move them to another when complete, using SAB. But I pointed NZBDrone to the wrong one.

[Geko]

Another issue I have found. It seems it was previously moving them fine, because it had grabbed them from the earlier folder (pre processing), but was returning errors, until I made the changes that beerman said.

Anyway... The other issue.

All my folders are named "Season 01". NZBDrone has created new folders in the style of "Season 1". But there seems to be no way to change folder naming, just episode naming.


Edit - There is a way to change. Have changed to "Season {season:00}" Hopefully that will sort.

[beerman]

Yeah that's what I did. It created season 7 so I manually moved the file and changed the folder settings. Working great so far.

I've been trialing this for the last 3 or so days and I am REALLY impressed.

The killer feature for me over Sick Beard is the ability to cross reference scene release names with TVDB names, which are often mismatched.

For example - Pawn Stars is up to S08 on the scene but TheTVDB lists it as S2014. Sick Beard just ignores the S2014 while NzbDrone downloads S08 and renames to S2014 for XBMC.

So now I have about 30 episodes of Pawn Stars to catch up on

It works with Horizon too. Which sickbeard did not do.

[DejaVu]

It's integrated with XEM (Xross Entity Map - Posh words!) perfectly. Meaning all scene releases do exactly as stimpy mentions.
All fucked scene releases tally up now... including, but not limited too -

American Dad!
American Pickers
Dirty Jobs
Fast N'Loud
Counting Cars

Entire list it integrates with here - http://thexem.de/xem/shows

There IS a version of Sickbeard that references this, but it's only a branch and not updated often enough.

You can also, if you can be bothered, create and contribute to XEM for future releases that screw up. It's a user kept DB as theTVDB is.

Which explains why Horizon now works...!

This has been flawless for me since installing it

I've got to be honest, since changing my search provider to a very well recommended one, my sickbeard installation has not failed to grab what I wanted.

So what was it?

The files I was missing (Horizon episodes) were available on my indexer. But sickbeard wasn't as good at locating them as nzbdrone.

Does anyone know if the blacklist is centralised or local to the installation
