Couch potato is no longer maintained as software. I recommend looking into Radarr instead.

The renamer put 0 instead of real year of a movie.... and its related not only for renamer.... For the search the same issue. All searchers trying to submit the string with 0 instead of year of the movie.

Is any fix for this issue?

I have Couchpotato installed on Dietpi and it's working just fine. I noticed that there's no new updates last time. Is there any work on it to add new features? Like Simkl connection?
Regards.

Everything was working three days ago. Search would add the movie, look in the watch\blackhole folder, process it and copy it to the proper location. But now every add\search gives error: Unauthorized for url: https://www.omdbapi.com/?apikey=xxx&type=movie&y=movie+name

Google says omdbapi switched to a pay system a few years ago but CP has been working fine untill a few days ago. Is there a config file that needs to be updated?

Edit: 99% solved. I had to go to omdb and get a personal key (free for a 1000 searches). Change the builtin omdb key to mine and now the search works. But it has to be a complete search. It won't find Half but it will find Half Baked.

hey guys

i've switched from rancheros to ubuntu for my docker and reinstalling pretty much everything related (i.e. sab, sonarr, headphones) without any issues.

for some reason, couchpotato however is not accessible over webgui. i used the "linuxserver/couchpotato" image ...

​

anybody having the same issue or any idea what is happening with couchpotato specifically?

​

thanks and br

so it is adding movies that it wouldn't add before (i was on the windows installer, just uninstalled that and did a fresh install with the version on GitHub. everything seems to be working for the most part but when it goes to search for movies the logs show it searching in different qualities but it never gets anything back no matter how popular the movie. I even tried on stuff that was already found and nothing. any ideas? getting most movies with no working renamer is better than getting none at all but I've been at this several hours doing web searches and messing with settings, is couch potato working correctly, from start to finish, for anyone else?

For months, CP has been stable, but as of late, it is mysteriously shutting down randomly with this error (from Windows event logs):

Any ideas on how to fix?

I followed a tutorial for my set up. I really don't understand much of what I'm doing, but funny enough, everything is working well. In my CP Settings, under Usenet Providers, I show that I'm using 5 different providers. Is there a way to see statistics on which of these providers are giving me the most results and which are useless? I'm thinking maybe I should weed out the ones that aren't finding anything.

Hi

It's the only thing I can think of..

I simply have not been able to use CP's renamer to add a movie over 100GB. Also.. when it indexes my movie folder - it ignores the movie ( I used radarr to import it just for testing).

Anyone know if CP can handle large files like this? Others with a size of 50-60GB are added without problems.

u/clintonhall ?

### Steps to reproduce:

1. add ptp as a searcher
2. search for a movie
3. it searches for `tt10310140` instead of the movie

​

### Information:

Movie(s) I have this with: all

Quality of the movie being searched: any

Providers I use: ptp

Version of CouchPotato: source:(CouchPotato:CouchPotatoServer master) 7260c12f (2020-02-04 07:57:11)

Running on: docker

​

Is there any way I can search for a genre instead of a specific title / id / etc? For example just search for "horror" and get a neverending paginated / feed of horror movies ordered by rate / release / etc?

Every once in awhile I'm still getting the "movie didn't add properly. check logs" errors. I am on the current version I believe (3.0.1). any help would be appreciated. if not I can continue to find them manually like I said 99% of them add normally still.

for reference, the title was a movie called shithouse also checked on a movie called vanguard (2020) which is a new jackie chan

the log error:

Since quite a while, the automatic download from my IMDB watchlists has stopped working. No movies are added to the CP download list at all. It did work in the past, but suddenly stopped without making any changes in the settings. Adding movies manually within CP works well.

Running Couchpotato versin 7260c12f on my QNAP

The list URL I'm using in the settings is https://www.imdb.com/list/ls000771520

Here is what the logs have to say:

Any ideas?

Hi all, I am experiencing some issues with my CP docker passing movies to Sab. The last time I was able to pull down something was 9/3...

​

When I use the search feature, a movie is found, however, it doesn't enumerate the list of possible download nzb files. I have had some strange problems with permissions that forced me to reboot unraid but everything else works ok.

Only thing I see in the log that's an error

0-21 21:49:39 ERROR[chpotato.core.plugins.log] API log: {'file': u'http://HOST/static/scripts/combined.plugins.min.js?1580803031', 'message': u"chrome 86: \nUncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined", 'line': u'1288', 'page': u'http://HOST/', '_request': <couchpotato.api.ApiHandler object at 0x14f91b83e310>}

​

Is there a permissions issue happening? Anything I can check?

Ever since switching up to the python version of couchpotato (as in the new version, not the github download version) when I start my PC the python window opens and starts CP which opens chrome with the CP localhost web page, then 5 seconds later it opens another identical tab.

I was wondering if its something left over from the old app version, as in local host is being triggered by the old process and the new one separately

I only have one version of couchpotato is start up apps.

​

Any ideas?

Does anyone know how to equalise the volume of movies? I have some that are very loud, and some that are very soft. I tend to play movies for my kids on a USB stick, and I'd love some way to have them all at the same volume (even at a small cost of the audio quality).

I have installed CouchPotato on a new machine after using it without issue for a number of years on my old one.

The old install was from the windows installer later updated using the github repository

The new install is from the github repository and works perfectly apart from the manual scan path being blank. I updated the config to match my old setup and double checked the folder paths are all correct. I have seen people referred to other browsers to fix this issue but so far tried any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, IE, Safari) with no luck.

I have CouchPotato set up as a service and tried stopping the service, changing it to run as a user rather than system. Tried running CouchPotato.py manually and from a batch file but the behaviour is the same.

The window that comes up is blank apart from the button to show hidden folders, cancel and select. If I click select it does actually scan my completed film downloads so it must have it pointed to the right location but as I sometimes need to browse to another folder for a film download I would really like to see this path. Has anyone got a fix?

i have set up couchpotato but whenever i refresh a movie it cant find the movie and returns this error

08-09 17:42:19ERROR[ couchpotato.core.event] Error in event "movie.searcher.single", that wasn't caught: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\brand\AppData\Roaming\CouchPotato\application\CouchPotato-3.0.1.win32\couchpotato\core\event.py", line 15, in runHandler File "C:\Users\brand\AppData\Roaming\CouchPotato\application\CouchPotato-3.0.1.win32\couchpotato\core\media\movie\searcher.py", line 200, in single TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__' encoding=cp1252 debug=False args=['--quiet'] app_dir=C:\Users\brand\AppData\Roaming\CouchPotato\application\CouchPotato-3.0.1.win32 data_dir=C:\Users\brand\AppData\Roaming\CouchPotato desktop=<__main__.CouchPotatoApp; proxy of <Swig Object of type 'wxPyApp *' at 0x35f3938> > options=Namespace(config_file='C:\\Users\\brand\\AppData\\Roaming\\CouchPotato\\settings.conf', console_log=False, daemon=False, data_dir=None, debug=False, pid_file='C:\\Users\\brand\\AppData\\Roaming\\CouchPotato\\couchpotato.pid', quiet=True)

Im not sure if this is to do with my usenet set up but could anybody help?

Hi,

I have both CP and NZBGet setup as containers on the same docker host:

CP on port 5050

NZBGet on 6789

I have CP search for torrents and downloading through transmission on a VM (who's gateway is via an anon VPN), so all downloads are anonymous.

I've been trying to get NZBGet working but every time I run the test it shows:

[o.core.downloaders.nzbget] NZBGet is not responding. Please ensure that NZBGet is running and host setting is correct.

The IP and port are correct and I can log into the NZBGet web interface on that port. USername and password are default.

How do I stop "Before ETA" searches. I am getting too many failed and bogus snachtes. I thought I had done this but they still keep appearing.

I find that the couchpotato Piratebay searcher is no longer working.

I have updated thepiratebay.py to add a working proxy to the list of proxies (thepiratebay.org appears to be working at present) and adjust the search command 'search/' changed to 'search.php?q=' and now it almost works.

The main problem I have left is that the search command adds '/0/7/200' to the end of the URL. The '/200' seems to stop the search finding any results. I cannot find any information about what the '/0/7/200' is trying to achieve. I'm not sure whether to simply remove it or whether it should be changed to something else.

Another minor problem is that the movie year is included within the quoted movie title. Sometimes there are discrepancies in the movie year (IMDB and themoviedb don't always agree) and I wonder whether searches would be more succesful if the year was outside of the quote marks.

Can anyone offer any advice?

I've had a blank home page for some time, so cannot add a movie.After checking the logs, I think it's because of a broken Wanted list.

My logs show a "media with ID <some_id> not found" error after I try to view the home page, or the wanted list.I've tried deleting everything on my wanted list, and 1 item remains - it will not delete. I've tried API calls to delete, and it hangs around.

After deleting everything and that 1 item remaining, the top right actually shows "2 movies" - the filter has "F" for the item I see, and "W" for some other item that's not listed...

I've tried doing an API delete on the media ID "not found" from the logs and on the item I see on the wanted lsit, and it doesn't help.

Any way I can do some database purge for the wanted list? Or a way to manually view/edit the couchpotato database?

​

EDIT: Managed to fix it!

I found CodernityDB-HTTP, installed that, made a copy of my CP database folder, added that to CodernityDB-HTTP. It gave errors because of couchpotato python includes in the index files, but after a few retries, it marked those indexes as "bad" and so ignored them.
I then did some educated-guess style poking around, found the ID/entry for the item that _was_ showing in my wanted list and deleted it.
Tried the other ID from the error log but nothing found.
Saved, copied back over my CP Database files, launched CP.
It seemed to re-create it's database, maybe that's what fixed it anyway - possibly didn't like my edited versions and just started again.
But now my "home" loads, my wanted list is empty, and my Manage list still has the same number of items on the list (the folder containing them actually has about 300 less than the list shows, so it must have used my database still, and not re-loaded from the folder).

Manage list has lots of missing thumbnails because I deleted my cache contents (rather than move, by mistake) during my troubleshooting. Ah well.

​

​

I have tried deluge, transmission and qbittorrent. All of them fail to connect. In the logs, deluge has no error it just says connecting. Transmission and qbittorrent have something along the lines of connection refused/address not available.

Can someone please help me, I've been up all night trying to get it to work and I can't figure out for the life of me what's wrong with it!

Hi

Just reinstalled my C drive, and subsequently couchpotato.

After I installed couchpotato I went through the initial setup. All ok.

However, after quiting couchpotato and copying the backed up database folder (to get back my wanted list) couchpotato shuts down everytime I try to start it.

Anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Can't get to main site, forums or api. Chrome reports "ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID ". FF: "SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE".

Anyone know how to reach out to owner so they can renew?

so I'm new to cp but I have set it up after a guide but when I add a movie it seems as it only searches for the movie and doesn't snatch or send it to Utorrent. Please help.

I've used Couchpotato for a few years and like it a lot, but have run into an issue where it suddenly just stops working. I have a back up image of my SD card (I'm using it on a Raspberry Pi) and can have it back up and running in a few minutes. It's not a huge deal, but I would prefer to not have to do this on a continuous basis. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I recently had to reload my hard drive os from a disk image. I tried copying over couchpotato settings from the roaming folder but it seems something went wrong. Win10 PC. Here are the logs:

Hi there!

Google (I think) removed the couchpotato extension for chrome from the store...

Well that suck because I used it alot back in the days.

​

Does anyone have an alternative or the original extension he could share?

Thanks!

Hey all, looking for help on an issue I am seeing with duplicates. I noticed when my Sabnzbd is downloading a movie it is downloading both 720p and the 1080p versions? I just want it to download one version. This creates a duplicate, how can I fix this?
