and downloaded hundreds of torrents, checkout the latest site news post

for perfectly understandable reasons the "mark as watched" feature has been
disabled for episodes. fair enough - it must have been hammering the shit out
of the database.

all episodes of your selected shows have been effectively marked unwatched,
and the rss feed has picked them all up.

if you are new to using rss, don't worry. it's a one off situation.

make sure you have "smart ep. filter" (in utorrent) or "utilize smart history"
(in azureus rss feed scanner) enabled.

just delete any old torrents the current rss grabs. the smart ep feature in
the clients should `remember` the most recent ep number for each show and, in
future, will only grab numbers after that.

[edit}

oh - and a question to the site admins ...

are you working on some sort of aging process to strip out episodes after a
given amount of time for the feed entries ?

currently my feed is giving 710 entries.

it's not something i'm complaining about from my side - filtering and episode
history in client will take care of that:- but it can't be doing your
bandwidth/server loads much good, considering the average refresh for an rss
feed is every 15 to 30 minutes.

fortunately i had only recently set up most of my filters, and started from
recent episode numbers, so i didn't get that many, how ever i am regretting
making a filter for 'proper' about 3 hours ago ;-)

37 files started to download, over half are propers from older episodes. it is
a good idea to set the from series/episode when making torrents if the season
has already started and you don't need the older episodes etc.

thanks for the quick update though in the news section.

(edit: p.s. kurai for admin!!)
