CouchPotato is an automatic NZB and torrent downloader. You can keep a "movies I want"-list and it will search for NZBs/torrents of these movies every X hours. Once a movie is found, it will send it to SABnzbd or download the .nzb or .torrent to a specified directory.

Prerequisits:

  1. SABnzbd
  2. CouchPotato

CouchPotato can be accessed from http://cpotato:5000/ -or- yourHDAip:5000 (i.e. 192.168.1.10:5000)

How to configure with SABnzbd:

  • Please Add Instructions
  • Instructions are incomplete and untested
  • By default, SABnzbd's completed downloads folder is "/var/spool/sabnzbd/incoming/"
  • CouchPotato should be set to look for downloads in "/var/spool/sabnzbd/incoming/Movies"
  • Your SABnzbd API key can be found at http://sabnzbd/config/general/
  • Host might be "localhost:25914" or "yourHDAip:25914"
  • Category should be set as Movies

Warnings:

  • Leave your host as 0.0.0.0, this allows you to access from any pc on your network
  • If you change the port from 5000 you will break the proxy http://cpotato. You can still access CouchPotato from yourHDAip:port-you-set (i.e. http://192.168.1.10:8082)
