Download Sick Beard build 495 alpha

A new build of Sick Beard has been released. This program can keep an eye on when new episodes of your favorite TV series are available and if there are better quality episodes available. In addition, it can 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 written in Python and can therefore be used on various operating systems. Development is at an early stage and the program is still offered as alpha. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Changelog for build 495

• Added unittest, using travis-ci to run them against python 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 for quality testing. pull #354
• Ignore .AppleDouble and .DS_Store when post-processing. pull #333
• Added notification pushover. pull #354
• Upgraded GitHub lib and switched to GH v3 API for version checking. GitHub is retiring their previous api on May 1st 2012.
  • Increased number of commit hash history from 35 to 100. Pull #360
• Upgraded tablesorter to tablesorter-2.1.10.min.js to fix bugs and widgets. pull #351 may need to clear browser cache
  • Re-factored the loading/showNames parser, also fixed sorting for shows that are ‘loading’. pull #346
• Added hack to include boxset categories when searching on beta.nzbs.org.
• Modified the add show search page
  • Catch exceptions on malformed tvdb XML results on new keyword searches rather than hanging. pull #352
  • Modified the start date description on the list search results to reflect shows with a future start date. pull #344
• Fixed api builder from sending & incorrectly. pull #359
• Updated init.fedora for systemd support. pull #362
• Added check before attempting to change file permissions. pull #347 On linux when SB is ran as a different user as the downloaded files (like Zebulon’s packages for Synology NAS) moving files will result in download user still owning the files. Thus when SB tries to chmod permissions this results in an error, because only root or the owner can do this.
• Added more logic to attempt to catch and log exceptions on loading URLs from flaky servers (NZBMatrix)
• Fix auto redirect for IPv6 when changing SB host.
• Fix banner size to match CSS when using PIL. pull #368
