Software update: Sick Beard build 502 alpha

A new build of Sick Beard has been released. This program can keep an eye on when new episodes of your favorite TV series are available and if there are better quality episodes available. In addition, it can bring some uniformity in the naming, and it is possible to download episodes from usenet and to a lesser extent via BitTorrent. The program is written in Python and can therefore be used on various operating systems. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Changelog for build 502:

• Add grace-period to bypass ‘ended’ show status checks. Also we store the last date SB updated it’s data from tvdb (so we can key off some of our logic checks).
  The bypass introduces a sliding window of +/- 30 days from the latest aired episode airdate and -30 days before next unaired episode airdate where we will just get the latest data from TVDB during our nightly update. Additionally we will update every 90 days as well (this is reduced to 30 days for the first year a shows ended).
  This should prevent the need to do ‘force full update’ to fix shows that get their status changed incorrectly while still reducing the hits to TVDB for shows that are in-fact ended.
• Modified DB schema to use an index on tvdb_id (tv_shows) and showid (tv_episodes) to speed up queries.
• Add support for SD web-dl. pull #768
  Fixes detection of things like Project.Runway.All.Stars.S03E02.Bitten.By.The.Fashion.Bug.WEB-DL.x264-RKSTR and Cutthroat.Kitchen.S01E03.Tac-o.the.Town.WEB-DL .x264-JIVE
  Note: this means now SB will pick up those mSD 480p re-encodes.. add 480p to ignore_words to 2stop those (already done for new users).
