Using RSS

I noticed RSS feed support using tvrss/eztv. But I'm not clear on exactly what it does, or how it works. Can tvrename actually kick-off downloads in utorrent? Right now, I have my per-show feeds setup manually in uTorrent, and it doesn't always work (and takes a week to figure out that it's broken!). So, on with the questions:

If it can start downloads, how do I specify 720p for a particular show? Does it know to fall back to SD if there is no 720p?
Can it automatically grab "PROPER" releases of items I already have? (that would be soooooo nice!)

(if possible) How/where do I set this up? the docs seem to address an older version (all the menus are different!)

Is it possible to use RSS from tvnzb.com for NZB files (usenet) ?
thanks

SABnzbd+ does the trick.

Thanks
I have been playing with sabnzb but I don t find how to link tvrename with sabnzbd

The RSS stuff will eventually be improved so that you can specify things it must have, must not have, or preferences (e.g. PROPER over anything else, 720p before xyz, etc.)

At the moment, the general idea is that you set up a RSS feed, and then when it is trying to find missing episodes, it will check against that. It will then show a list of torrent files (found via RSS) that match the missing episodes. At the moment you can sometimes get more than one match, so once you've removed the ones you don't want (or deselected them in if you're using version 2.1.1), TVRename will download the .torrent and pass them to uTorrent, along with a command line option to make it download directly to the correct destination folder.

At the moment, there is no automatic downloading (i.e. checking regularly and then kicking off uTorrent). Fully automatic operation is on the to-do list, though.

I'm not sure which version you're using, but give the latest 2.1.1 alpha a go - it's safe, in spite of being an alpha, and the RSS support in that is much nicer than it was in earlier versions. Set up your RSS source(s) and uTorrent.exe folder in the options, then do a "Scan".

If you're still stuck, let me know which version you're using as the RSS stuff has changed a bit recently.

The downside of using SABnzbd+, is that you'll have to specify filters on the RSS-feed, so you kinda need to keep that list updated. (i.e. if there's a new show you'd like to get downloaded, you'd have to add that to the SABnzbd's RSS-filter, and if there's a show you don't want to be downloaded, you'd have to remove that from the filter).

However, as there's few changes in what shows I download, there's really not much hassle. After the filters are set up in SABnzbd+, all new episodes gets downloaded, checked and, if not corrupt/CRC-error, extracted, into the same directory. This directory is in turn added as a search-folder in TVRename, and the rest is up to TVRename.

Steve, I haven't looked into the schedule/CLI for a while; is it possible, in the newer versions, to have TVRename running, and make it scan "Search Folders" for new episodes, and if there is, and these are not locked by Windows (i.e. still being copied/extracted), move them to the appropriate folders? (as in doing the Scan + Do Checked (but only the Copy/Move-feature)). This might be the wrong thread to ask for this?
