Per-category option to not have extra directory per nzb

Post by chumpy » 07 Jul 2015, 04:08

As per a topic in the support forum, http://forum.nzbget.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1776, it was confirmed that "Extra directory per nzb is a correct behavior".

I would like to request a feature whereby for a given category this extra directory is not completed.

For example, downloading an NZB called "NZB Title" containing a single MP4 called "Show Title" extracts to:
c:\DestDir\NZB Title\Show Title.mp4

I would like the option, on a category basis, for it to extract to:
c:\DestDir\Show Title.mp4

Extra directory is needed for correct processing. With a pp-script the files can be moved elsewhere.

Thank you for your reply.

The reason I thought it may have been possible is because SABNZBD gives the option to put an asterisk * at the end of a category's file path and this prevents creation of the extra directory. (I know it is different software, I only mention it so you know why I was asking).

its still possible, with this script you can move your stuff everywhere you want to, directly after extraction, with or without sub folders: https://github.com/nzbget/VideoSort
