jburnette,

Well, I use BlueTwo wide with your plugin and I installed the plugin using MPI installer, so there would not be any other version of any files related to your plugin. All the files in my setup are from the installer. I also downloaded the RAR version and checked the files - I've got all the same files, but I overwrote them just in case.

I cannot search n NZB site (in my case - newzbin). When I select 'Search Newzbin' I get a window with two options - I select 'Search by attribute' and then select an attribute from further screens. The plugin tries to get some data - there is a progress circle showing up, but there are no results displayed. The button 'Next' at the bottom gets highlighted and I can select that which triggers the 'progress circle' again - I assume it gets the next page of results?

I can however use 'Select feed' - this returns the results and they get displayed. Once I do this I can also 'Refresh feed'.

So, is there a specific reason why searching does not display results?

Thanks!

Hmm, I'm not exactly sure what's going on then. Have you entered your username/password in the Newzbin config and grabbed the cookies? Not doing that would cause feeds to work only. Does TVNZB work? That site needs no cookies. If none of that applies, attach your Mediaportal.log and I'll take a look.

jburnette,

Yeah, I put in the credentials and got the cookies.. I checked newzbin.xml and it has couple of nodes that, I believe, contain the newzbin cookie data - nzbsmoke and nzbsessionid. Plus, I was able to get the feed from it, so I assume that means that the plugin gets the data from the site.

I also tried TVNZB - it returns some results and displays them for the shows that are on the usenet..

I'm attaching the log files, but there is nothing interesting in there as far as I can see - I tried to search for 'usenet' string in there.. Anything else I can do to troubleshot this? I would so like to use the plugin!

Thanks!

Nothing of interest in the logs. When you are viewing the feeds on Newzbin, do you see a lot of data on the left hand side where details for the selected item are shown?

[Shurik]

I assume you are talking about the details of the entries in the list on the right when I select a feed? Yes, I get the details - file size, etc.

I can report that the plugin seems to work with http://www.sabnzbdplus.cyphen.net/

... great news!

Great. I was no even aware of that coming out but thanks for pointing it out! It appears to be working with the new SABnzbd controls (queue management, mainly) that I've added.

I'm finishing up on the new version, by the way. I've added a lot and changed a lot of things around to provide more stability. I think I've gotten rid of a lot of the connection problems, etc. that existed. I've also added "saved searches" so that you don't have to type in "heroes" every week to find the new episode. You can just save it as a search. Search history has been added as well as switching from RSS feeds for Newzbin and NZBMatrix to regular HTML listings so you are no longer limited to 20 results on the feeds. You can now go back through the hundreds of pages for each category. Also, you can see how many pages of results you have and jump to a specific page if need be.

Hi.

I have one problem with this plugin now. I don´t know if it´s just the latest version.

If for some reason your internet connection drops or just don´t work and you are
in the middle of a search Mediaportal crashes. I have RC2 and new SVN.

ExceptionType: System.Net.WebException
Message: The remote name could not be resolved: 'nzbmatrix.com'
Source: System

Stack trace:
   at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
   at ClassLibrary1.myusenet.nzbmatrixsearch(Object feedaddress)
   at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart_Context(Object state)
   at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state)
   at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart(Object obj)

I know this i just a simple task to fix just add a check for internet connection before the webrequest is done

I know this will be fixed in the next version.

BTW I really like this plugin and use it a lot.

Thanks, I had not noticed this as a potential problem. That is now fixed on all sites. Any other pending problems while I'm wrapping things up?

No not that I have found.

It´s very stable and just getting better.
