NZBMatrix RSS

[xtinct101]

Hi,

I've searched on the forums about NZBmatrix and RSS found a few links, tried everything on them, but I still have not had any luck getting it to work.

I used rss.nzbmatrix.com to generate the rss link, i tried both methods "NZB Details link" and "NZB Download link" and its seems display the RSS feed in altbinz but when I "Add to queue" nothing happens, not even a msg appears in the Log.

I'm using altbinz 0.31.5

Does anyone have any ideas how to get this working?

Thanks!!

Do any .nzb files appear in your NZB folder but not in the queue? If so, open one of them in Notepad to see if they're valid xml or just server messages or html pages.

I've the same problem with NZBmatrix- been working flawlessly for months. Now though when I select to download from the feed (either manually or using a filter), the CPU usage goes high indefinitely and doesn;t add the item to the queue.

Is your import folder clean?  If AB happened to pickup and scan a file which is very large that would account for cpu usage.  I have never witnessed this but I have read of other users who have had this issue and it was due to the import folder not being clean.

Unless you have an account and have donated, NZBMatrix does not let you import from feeds.  I just d/l nzb into a folder being monitored by AB; works like a charm.

I have the same problem. I already removed all config from Alt.Binz\misc and started from scratch. Didn't help though.

Nzb's are not being added based on the filters anymore, and when I add them manually from the feed they don't appear in the download queue. I also noticed that altbinz.exe is constantly using 15-24% CPU even when it's not connected and the 'Refresh' (next to Timer-button) keeps on blinking even when it's not in Timer mode anymore.

I just hit the Timer button again while Refresh was still blinking, and I got a popup saying : HTTP component RSShttpcli is  busy.

When I open the rss feed in a browser it just loads perfectly and I'm abled to download the nzb's as well.
When I search in the binsearch tab and add an nzb to the queue, it works as well.

btw I donated to nzbmatrix. So that's not the issue

Yes thats exactly the same error I'm getting. No NZB's get added to the queue and nothing appears in the LOG. And I have donated to nzbmatrix and have the direct download link but still nothing shows up.

I had some messages in the log after refreshing though:

But I think that's just because the filter recognizes the NZB's. Unfortunately, they're not queued though

I just fixed the cpu usage bug. However, nzbmatrix nzbs not downloading problem still remains due to some problems I have with redirection from https->http.

Owner of site is redirecting all api-downloads from https to http. It would help if &ssl=0 switch would work in their API.

For now I'll manualy force to http.

I am experiencing the same problem now. I've had no issues up until now.

Just fyi, and I have no way of assessing whether it is relevant, but someone posted the following on the NZBMatrix forums earlier today:

----

Since you added the <enclosure> tags in your RSS feed i can't use them in Alt.Binz anymore.

Can you please remove this as it is of no use at all for the RSS feed. Why you would add the already existing link to the nzb as an enclosure is beyoond my understanding.

<enclosure url="https://nzbmatrix.com/api-nzb-download.php?id=627100&username=XXX&apikey=XXX" length="292867276" type="application/x-nzb" />

WHY, since you already have:
<link>https://nzbmatrix.com/api-nzb-download.php?id=627100&username=XXX&apikey=XXX</link>

At least make it optional in the RSS builder. The way it is now is redundant and simply wrong.

Thanks in advance,
KJ

The old tvnzb.com RSS used enclosures too, also with the same link.  They worked, though the length param was always set incorrectly.  A waste of time for most readers that would use the feed in the first place, it's true.

[Holm0n]

Ok, well, I thought I'd bring it to attention.

[drysdan]

I'm getting the "HTTP component RSShttpcli is  busy." errors also.  It was working flawlessly a few days ago...   Any progress?

And how would any change in NZBMatrix's feed format cause such an error?  The error pops up when I press the 'timer' button, before it even checks the feed.

Is this error message part of the same problem as the inability to add nzb's from the feed, or separate?

Read Rdl's post, the bug has been identified and a fix is on its way. 'Me too' posts aren't really needed at this point.

I did read Rdl's post.  Several times.  He makes no mention whatsoever of the "HTTP component RSShttpcli is  busy." message.  Which, as I mentioned, appears at the moment the 'timer' button is pressed, not while trying to download an nzb from the feed, which is what Rdl's message seems to be about. 

My post, on the other hand, was primarily to question if the two problems are even related. 


As a footnote:  With all due respect to you, as a 'global moderator,' your terse response comes across as very condescending and dismissive, not to mention not seeming to take notice of the actual contents of my post, and in my humble opinion as a mere 'contributor' and user, is much less helpful, even than a simple 'me too' post, which, I think, mine was not.
