Download Sick Beard build 468 alpha

Sick Beard is a program that can help bring order to the chaos of TV series. It can keep an eye on when new episodes are available and if there are better quality episodes. It can also bring some uniformity to the naming. It is also possible to download episodes from usenet and to a lesser extent via BitTorrent. The program is controlled from a web browser and can therefore be used on any operating system. Development is still at an early stage and the program will be made available as an alpha release. Version 468 was released a few days ago and it comes with the following changes:

Changelog for build 468:

• Try fixing encoding errors during renaming
• Don’t crash when people use make believe dates in release names
• Fix false negatives with certain episodes for shows ending with country codes

• Fixed a problem post-processing shows with & in the names
• Fix false positives in searches for single-season shows
• Fix flash errors
• Fix nzb.su feed encoding until it gets fixed server side.
• Grab pid from the main thread only and use it everywhere. This fixes restart & update for people with whacky linux setups (aka synology).
• Don’t waste cycles searching unnecessarily
