You can start each service the first time without rebooting by typing the following lines at the command prompt. Python /mnt/cache/.custom/couchpotato/CouchPotato.py -d Python /mnt/cache/.custom/sickbeard/SickBeard.py -daemon Python /mnt/cache/.custom/sabnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d # If Cache drive is online, start SABnzbd, Sickbeard, and CouchPotato # determine if cache drive online, retry upto 7 times Then edit /boot/config/go, add the following section to the end You will also need to check for the latest download of SABnzbd and replace the wget below with the URL to it. To do this we need a cache drive (you can do it without, but that's out of the scope of this How-To). Now we need to download the servers and extract them. Log into your unRAID box and run these commands:
Configure couchpotato with sabnzbd install#
Install the dependency package, this will add python and all the required dependencies every time unRAID boots. Use the web interface for each program to shut it down or use the unMENU shutdown button to shut down all the applications with one click. You must shut down these applications to be able to stop the unRAID array. These applications will keep the cache disk busy and it will not unmount when you press the "Stop" button for the unRAID array. Python Python is the scripting language that all of these services are built upon.
Configure couchpotato with sabnzbd movie#
The goal of CouchPotato is to add a "Movie" you would like, and then let it keep searching for you once a day, downloading the movie when it is available. CouchPotato CouchPotato is a newcomer which is based on Sick Beard. You can then choose to download missing shows and look for new shows automatically. Sick Beard Sick Beard is a system for tracking "Wanted" TV Shows, it scans your media and compares what you have against.


Terms SABnzbd SABnzbd is a Usenet download tool, it takes nzb files as input and downloads, checks and unarchives the resulting Usenet posts. An new page is being written with that information. Note: This instruction set does not make use of the unraid 5.0 plugins. Be warned, following these steps changes how unRAID functions and can result in hung unmounts and slower boot times. Installing these services requires an understanding of the UNIX command line utilities and updates to the unRAID boot process. These scripts search NZB/Torrent sites and pass the download off to SABnzbd or Transmission, then process the content once it has been downloaded.

Many users on the unRAID forums are using a set of tools to manage downloading items. 1.1 Note: This instruction set does not make use of the unraid 5.0 plugins.
