CBers 6766 Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 Yea others may have good insight too. Not sure that's a good idea. I suspect people might have been a bit less forthcoming with certain information if this had started in the public forums. Can we move it back and create another thread? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantaxp7 190 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 no, TV only (like SB basically) Need CP for that Blah typo, meant tv shows. Like does it handle creating series,seasons, episode names? And moving of the files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psykix 97 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 ok i WAS tempted.. but this import 1 by 1 is a non-starter for me.. i have 535 existing shows in sb.... ugh.. that sux cause based on you all with your damn excitement i grabbed it to play with this weekend.. way to ruin my whole weekend! /dramaticrant I've been using this for months and don't remember having to do them one by one. As far as I remember, you click import existing series, and then point it at your top level folder and then it will list them all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son has been using it for a while as well and he said the same, but my experience was one-by-one. It's not even in the HIDDEN options. If someone could show where that option is, then it will help other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfnetwork 514 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 The fact is that whatever pending feature/option NZBDrone has at this stage of the project, dev seems WAY more interested and active than SB. For me, that good enough to switch to NZBDrone (and of course how the app is right now and its look and feel). For me automated TV download/management is too important. Fits better along with CP IMO. Thanks to this community I discovered it (I wouldn't never think of looking for SB alternative since I never thought it would be created and at least as good as SB.

DGMayor 88 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I haven't switched SickBeard back on yet, so it's must be doing OK I agree with the first importing of TV shows - if you have a lot, it's painful. That's one thing that SB wins over ND. I'm not totally sure about the WANTED page either, but it doesn't seem to cause any issues. If you find out, please let us know. The NzbDrone WiKi is here. This was my stumbling block. I looked at it a few months back, but I have over 100 entries in SB and well, it was just a pain to import. Plus, SB is working just fine, so I decided to stick it out for now (also the lack of that other download method was a showstopper). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navanod 12 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Thanks for the recommendation, great tv manager. Downloaded last night, gave it a try, looks fantastic and has some functionality over Sickbeard (detect and re-search failed downloads is a big one). Has already found and downloaded episodes Sickbeard could not. Sickbeard is now turned off and this is working a treat. I have to agree with the initial import, painful process. But then again you only have to do it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee 204 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 NZB's were a great way to get round traffic shaping on my old network. Lots of "takedown" fails tho starting last year.

But I give them that, they care about the product and really seem to be really active in dev and support forums, really glad so far I switched... There is however 2-3 branches with torrents as the main thing, The TPB branch was really successful but the dev quit and now I'm stuck with SickRage, Though it both supports failed download management, and multiple providers (Tvrage TVDB and AniDB). It does however in it current state have several flaws. Such as reverse-proxy not working as it should and a problem with the changed built-in webserver. (Same as the one CP uses but not the same as the original SB uses). Other than that I have been running a branch of SB for over a year and it was stable for a very long time , last month have been crap In comparison.
