Multiple Servers

If you are sending downloads to multiple systems or installations of CouchPotato, SickBeard, HeadPhones, Gamez, Mylar etc, you can separate these using different categories.

For this example let us consider that there are 2 instances of SickBeard running, one being the Anime fork and one being the standard SickBeard.

The anime fork will send category "anime" to the downloader, while the standard fork will send category "tv".

in autoProcessMedia.cfg we set

then we create 2 new sections, each specifying all of the SickBeard settings for that particular server.

[SickBeard]
  [[tv]]
    host = localhost
    port = 8081
    username =
    password =
    web_root = 
    ssl = 0
    delay = 0
    watch_dir =
    fork = auto
    delete_failed = 0
  [[anime]]
    host = localhost
    port = 8082
    username =
    password =
    web_root = 
    ssl = 0
    delay = 0
    watch_dir =
    fork = auto
    delete_failed = 0

This same concept can be applied to CouchPotato etc.

Also consider this as an option if you run a single download server for multiple people/pc's each with an individual installation of SickBead/CouchPotato... Set up a central downloader in your dorm and serve the downlaods back out to your local PC.
