markusj81 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Hey all, I'm trying to set auto download for an RSS, each time I do it creates the new filter which I then edit to download exactly what I want, as soon as I edit though the auto download check box disables itself.Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I've had it working in the past and although I've asked for help on the torrent site forum, no help has so far been given.We'll say for arguments sake I'm downloading music, set it to auto download and then edit the filter for *Tracks* and not in *lossless*, I set the folder to download to ... auto download has disabled itself.Any help would be appreciated.

markusj81 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Oh, and this is my set up.I do realise that its currently set to 'do not automatically download', each time I set it to auto download and then edit my filter it disables again.

ciaobaby Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 If you DO NOT set the feed to download automatically, ....... How, is the filter EVER going to trigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Right, so you actually it's the feed radio button that is switching over, NOT the auto download check box checkbox on the filter dialogue. Yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusj81 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Step by step of what I've done... (from blank)- Add RSS Feed >> (paste URL)- Select 'Automatically download all items in feed >> OK- Right click the new RSS feed, select RSS Downloader- Tranceroute already listed in favourite and ticked in the check box.- Set filters and other settings as in the picture >> OKI then right click the Tranceroute feed and select Edit Feed, the radio button for Auto download has switched itself back to Do not download.If I switch it back, it creates a new fave and thus the circle carries on in a loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 So it's all working as it should then?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusj81 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 No because it should be downloading automatically and its not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Have you tested the filter parameters?Have you tested with just *? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusj81 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Tested as...*Tracks*[Tracks]* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SShadow Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 As soon as you set a filter, you are not automatically downloading everything in the feed. That's why it's being disabled. The filter needs to be * and only * in order to download everything in the feed. By default, if you set up a filter of *tracks* (for example) it will automatically download anything that pops up in the feed that matches that filter anyways.I'm not seeing the problem, unless it's NOT downloading things that fit in the *tracks* filter...

markusj81 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 That sounds a bit more feasible.What I've now done is left enabled the custom filter I added 'Tracks' etc too then set it to auto download again, this created a second fave/filter which I've unchecked, we'll see how it goes while I'm at work.
