CouchPotato (CP) 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 torrent to a specified directory.

CouchPotatoServer can be run from source. This will use git as updater, so make sure that is installed also.

Windows:

• Install PyWin32 2.7 and GIT
• If you come and ask on the forums 'why directory selection no work?', I will kill a kitten, also this is because you need PyWin32
• Open up Git Bash (or CMD) and go to the folder you want to install CP. Something like Program Files.
• Run git clone https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer.git.
• You can now start CP via CouchPotatoServer\CouchPotato.py to start

OSx:

• If you're on Leopard (10.5) install Python 2.6+: Python 2.6.5
• Install GIT
• Open up Terminal
• Go to your App folder cd /Applications
• Run git clone https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer.git
• Then do python CouchPotatoServer/CouchPotato.py

Linux (ubuntu / debian):

• Install GIT with apt-get install git-core
• 'cd' to the folder of your choosing.
• Run git clone https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer.git
• Then do python CouchPotatoServer/CouchPotato.py to start
• To run on boot copy the init script. cp CouchPotatoServer/init/ubuntu /etc/init.d/couchpotato
• Change the paths inside the init script. nano /etc/init.d/couchpotato
• Make it executable. chmod +x /etc/init.d/couchpotato
