Title: Extend RSS to allow size
Post by: ronen82 on September 19, 2008, 08:25:22 pm

Right now, the RSS feature shows me only few details on the NZB (taken from newzbin) and the rest appear in the description column.

Is it possible to add the size in its own column in the RSS tab?

I'd ask to add the feature to filter the size in alt.binz, but if i'm not mistaken, you can get an RSS filtered before you put it in alt.binz, so all I need is to actually to see the size column in the RSS tab.

I hope it's possible

thank you

And what about feeds that don't have a <size> tag?

Really there are way better RSS feeds than Newzbin that actually display meaningful subjects/NZB names - i.e. containing all the information you need to work out the source/codec/size of each.  The Newzbin way of filtering by size is quite retarded, IMO.

Newzbin is dead. ;)

nzbindex.nl there you can also create search RSS-Feed with the criteria Size http://www.nzbindex.nl/?go=rss (http://www.nzbindex.nl/?go=rss)

Thank you David, but this doesn't help, I can only search for specific things there, I want to auto-download from a.b.tv, nothing specific, i have several different things, so I can't see how I can use that engine.

I'll just use TvNZB.

@ronen82

See pm, that feed now supports min/max filesizes (although properly configured filters should do the trick just fine).

create a sperate search RSS for each thing you want to follow and combine the feeds via rssmix or yahoo pipes. if you are happy with the way tvnzb works make shure to check out: http://www.foechoer.be/tvnzbreader/indexv2.php (http://www.foechoer.be/tvnzbreader/indexv2.php)

seems like a nice tool for using tvnzb.com
