Download Sick Beard build 504 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. There is not yet a separate Windows download, but the program can be updated internally. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Changelog for build 504:

  Some notable examples below of using ignore/require words, also the global ignore words in the webui under search settings.

  • Grab HD rips but require it to have DD5 audio.
  • Require VFR (variable frame rate) for the show Top Gear.
  • Require Uncut or XL versions of a show (since TVDB does not allow ‘duplicate’ shows).

  Do note that the ignore word logic comes before required words. So be careful on what you ignore. The words are not case sensitive, and if you use multiple words then a release will be rejected if ANY match.
