SABSync

How to Setup and Use SABSync

2) Open up either SABSyncGUI.exe or SABSync.exe.config to configure SABSync (The GUI is the preferred method)
	TV Root - Folder or Folders where your TV shows are located. For Example D:\TV or D:\TV;X:\TV
	TV Template - This is the sorting template from SABnzbd's sorting configuration
	TV Daily Template - Sorting template from SABnzbd for Daily shows
	Video Extensions - Extensions that you would like SABnzbd to consider as a TV show (Default: .mkv;.avi;.wmv)

	SABnzbd Settings:

	RSS Config File - Filename of the file that will contain the RSS Feed URL(s) - Can be left as RSS.config

	Quality Config File - Filename of the file that will contain show names and the quality you want that show to be downloaded in (if different from the default download quality) - Can be left as Quality.config

	Seasons to Ignore - Show Name (as seen on disk) and season number that you want to ignore (Season numbers below the number specified number will also be ignored, For Example "Show Name=3" will ignore seasons 1,2 and 3)
	Download Quality - The defualt download quality for all shows (except those defined in Quality.config), used if you want some shows in a HD and all others in another SD (or vice-versa)

	Replace Characters - Check this if you have SABnzbd replacing characters (otherwise leave unchecked if SABnzbd is set to remove illegal characters from NZB names)
	Download PROPERs - Check if you want PROPERs to be downloaded, this will replace episodes already downloaded (only if it hasn't already downloaded  the PROPER)
	Verbose Logging - Enable additional logging for troubleshooting issues, should be disabled unless required for troubleshooting
	Delete Logs - Delete old log files after X days, set to zero to keep log files until manually deleted

	Make changes as required to RSS.config, Alias.config and Quality.config, format for the config files is shown below (See second tab of SABSyncGUI.exe)
	RSS.config:
	Name|URL
	NZBMatrix-Xvid|http://rss.nzbmatrix.com/rss.php?subcat=6&english=1 			- Name can be anything you want to call it, URL is the URL to the RSS feed containing content you want SABSync to look at

	Alias.config:
	Show Name in Feed|Show Name on TheTVDB.com & On Disk (Cleaner looking names, more like Newzbin)
	The Office|The Office (US)				- If the show name in the RSS feed is: "The Office", it should be found as "The Office (US)" on TheTVDb.com and on disk
	CSI|CSI: Crime Scene Investigation			- If the show name in the RSS feed is: "CSI" it should be found as "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" on TheTVDB.com and on disk

	Quality.config
	Show Name|Wanted Quality (xvid or 720p)
	30 Rock|xvid 					  	- 30 Rock is wanted as a XviD only
	CSI: Crime Scene Investigation|720p			- CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is wanted in 720p only

3) Manually run SABSync to ensure everything is running as expected (check log files if required)
4) To automatically have SABSync check for new episodes you will need to setup a Windows Scheduled Task (Time between runs should be at least 15 minutes) (Use SABSyncHide.exe in the Scheduled Task to launch SABSync hidden)

5) Sit back and enjoy automatically downloading of new or missing episodes as they flow through the RSS feed(s)
