10 years ago I like the concept, however the issue is that the settings for SickBeard, CouchPotato and Headphones etc are slightly different, so I can't (easily) make this category centric......
Perhaps something like this:
[SickBeard]
sbCategory = tv
host = localhost
port = 8081
username =
password =
web_root =
ssl = 0
delay = 0
watch_dir =
failed_fork = 0
delete_failed = 0is default, but if you specify 2 (or more categories for sickbeard, then each has it's own header...)
[SickBeard]
sbCategory = tv,anime
[tv]
host = localhost
port = 8081
username =
password =
web_root =
ssl = 0
delay = 0
watch_dir =
failed_fork = 0
delete_failed = 0
[anime]
host = localhost
port = 8081
username =
password =
web_root =
ssl = 0
delay = 0
watch_dir =
failed_fork = 0
delete_failed = 0that way, if the category is in sbCategory, I then pass the category in to the autoProcessTV script and actually tell it to load the config from that particular category header...

currently nzbToMedia is designed only for 1 instance each of sickbeard, couchpotato, etc.
I want to run 2 sickbeard installations concurrently, but am unable to successfully have them post process by using nzbToMedia, despite following the instructions at https://github.com/clinton-hall/nzbToMedia/issues/128 ... in addition, the instructions for the modification required hard coding in the values for server, port, username, and password, and did not match the current version in line numbers, etc.
what if the settings file was setup instead with categories being used as section headers, then an application underneath specifying which database it should go to? for example:
[tv] app = /usr/local/sickbeard username = password = server = port = other settings
[anime] app = /usr/local/sickbeard-anime username = password = server = port = other settings
this way, there can be as many instances of any of the applications as you want, for example for people who want to run multiple installations to keep downloads for different family members separated from each other, with each person getting their own sickbeard or couchpotato so that they can manage their own shows / movies without messing with other people's downloads, yet all the usenet downloading is still concentrated on that 1 machine for maximizing the usage of the # of connections.
