Download Sick Beard build 474 alpha

The developers behind Sick Beard have released build 474 of their program. Sick Beard can keep an eye on when new episodes of your favorite TV series are available and if there are better quality episodes to be found. In addition, it can also bring some uniformity in the naming and it is possible to download episodes from usenet and to a lesser extent via BitTorrent. The program is controlled from a web browser and can therefore be used on any operating system. Development is still at an early stage and the program is still offered as alpha. The changelog for this release looks like this:

• Remove accidentally committed import path change
• Merge branch ‘menu fixes’ or git://github.com/thezoggy/Sick-Beard
• Tweak the lib fix so it will work with py2exe too
• Redo how libraries are imported so they can import each other (should fix the hachoir_metadata import bug)
• Fixed alignment issue with plotInfo in IE.
• Removed hoverIntent due to others not caring about visual quality or compatibility. Menu works fine in IE8+, FF and Chrome. Which covers our main targets. Also tweaked mouse out delay even lower, waiting for feedback.
• Tweaked the menu slightly so there is less mouse out delay. Modified the coming ep list view so that the plotInfo has some padding and is less likely to word wrap. Also changed the width for the tables to use 90% instead of 80%, this just makes more room for the content and causes less word wraps all together across the site.
• Make displaying paused shows in coming eps optional
• Corrected tablesorter image url, left in old /tablesorter.
• Fix tablesorter header images
• Merge branch ‘menu fixes’ or git://github.com/thezoggy/Sick-Beard
• Fix the name parser for certain no-season episode names
• Made default banner/poster images for coming ep when the cache hasn’t had a chance to populate or find a match. Removed old css for previous default image.
• Cleaned up menu code and removed unused images. Pulled out any images used in the css so we can provide the proper path for web_root users. Reordered submenu items to match drop down menus ABC ordering.
• Don’t use a template for the update restart in case the update breaks templates before a restart
