We are going to configure CouchPotato with SABnzbd. So that SABnzbd starts downloading your movies. And then put your films in the right download folder.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Configure CouchPotato with SABnzbd<\/h2>\n\n<p>First, let&#8217;s properly configure SABnzbd for CouchPotato . SABnzbd must already be installed and working!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"118\" src=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-319-1024x118.png\" alt=\"CouchPotato with SABnzbd\" class=\"wp-image-45545\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-319-1024x118.png 1024w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-319-250x29.png 250w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-319.png 1066w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>In SABnzbd we go to <strong>Settings<\/strong>. Then we choose<strong>categories<\/strong>. We need to create a new category here name movie.Then specify a location where your <strong>movies<\/strong> should be saved.. You do this under <strong>Folder\/path<\/strong>. Under <strong>Groups \/ Indexer Marks<\/strong> you also give the same <strong>film<\/strong>. You have to take this exactly. Otherwise there is a chance that it will not work properly.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Configure CouchPotato<\/h2>\n\n<p>Now we go to CouchPotato. When you start CouchPotato for the first time. Then the setup will be loaded immediately &#8220;http:\/\/localhost:5050\/wizard\/&#8221; If you have installed CouchPotato before, you can import the database file.<br \/><div class='code-block code-block-8' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both; width: 700px; height: 250px;'>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4833496329174552\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- nzbusenetinberichten2021 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:700px;height:250px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4833496329174552\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"6745544931\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div>\n<br \/>In case you skipped the Wizard. Or CoucPotato will not start right away with this setup. Then you can go to the top right. Click on the gear. And then choose <strong>settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"181\" height=\"193\" src=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings-1.jpg\" alt=\"CouchPotato settings\" class=\"wp-image-6645\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings-1.jpg 181w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings-1-141x150.jpg 141w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 181px) 100vw, 181px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Under <strong>General<\/strong> you can indicate whether a password will be placed on your CouchPotato. However, I wouldn&#8217;t do this until everything is working properly. What I would change is the port, this is set to default<strong>  5050<\/strong>. However, Sickbeard and SABnzbd all fall into the 808&#8230; series. So personally I would keep it neat and make it 8082. Then it is also wise to uncheck the box <strong>Launch the browser when I start<\/strong> to turn off. Because when you turn on your PC, you don&#8217;t want your browser to start with CouchPotato.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"935\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-320.png\" alt=\"download apps couchpotato setup windows\" class=\"wp-image-45547\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-320.png 935w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-320-250x139.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Now we come to<strong>What download apps are you using?<\/strong> Take over the above options (category film). Except for the API Key! You have to do this yourself. Copy from SABNZB.<\/p>\n\n<p>In <strong>SABnzbd<\/strong> (127.0.0.1:8080 default url) go to <strong>Setup<\/strong>. Then go to <strong>General<\/strong>. And copy <strong>the API Key<\/strong>. And paste it into CouchPotato.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Providers<\/h2>\n\n<p>Now let&#8217;s go to tab <strong>Providers<\/strong>. Here you have to enter the details of a website. (newznab) Which offers nzb files for download. As stated before, <a href=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/en\/newznab-providers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">free Newznab providers<\/a>are often not that good. I use a Dognzb account myself. And I benefit a lot from it.<\/p>\n<div class='code-block code-block-8' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both; width: 700px; height: 250px;'>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4833496329174552\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- nzbusenetinberichten2021 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:700px;height:250px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4833496329174552\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"6745544931\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Renamer<\/h2>\n\n<p>Now we come to the Renamer. I advise against this. Because later it becomes very difficult to find good subtitles. For your downloaded movie. So we skip this step. Now go to finish. And click the big green button. You can&#8217;t miss it.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"181\" height=\"193\" src=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings.jpg\" alt=\"CouchPotato options\" class=\"wp-image-1231\" title=\"CouchPotato settings\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings.jpg 181w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/CouchPotato-settings-141x150.jpg 141w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 181px) 100vw, 181px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Now we go to the top right to the gear.

You can set these options yourself. But my advice is take my configuration if you want to download good quality movies. Remove Igonered Word<strong>for your mother laungage<\/strong> otherwise there is a chance that you mother launage spoken films will not be downloaded.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"804\" height=\"612\" src=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-322.png\" alt=\"add movies couchpotato\" class=\"wp-image-45551\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-322.png 804w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-322-250x190.png 250w, https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image-322-80x60.png 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 804px) 100vw, 804px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Then we choose <strong>Qaulity<\/strong> in the menu on the left. You must set these options according to your own preferences. If you want the best quality, copy my options from the image above. Note that if you check a box and that quality is found, CouchPotato will stop looking for a better quality.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>CouchPotato tutorial Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/en\/couchpotato-tutorial-overview\/\">CouchPotato tutorials<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/en\/couchpotato-install-windows\/\">Install CouchPotato Windows<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/en\/couchpotato-sabnzbd\/\">Let CouchPotato talk to SABnzbd Windows<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nzbusenet.com\/en\/download-movies-with-couchpotato-windowsos\/\">Download movies with CouchPotato<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>In this step of the CouchPotato tutorial.
