How To Use the Mass Update Feature in Sickbeard

If you are like me and have a Usenet account and use SABNZBD you might have heard of Sickbeard if you haven’t you should familiarize yourself with the program as it saves you loads of time when it comes to a DVR/PVR type Application for more information simply type in “Sickbeard” in Google. I use it to keep track of all of the TV shows I watch and download them for me when available it is also possible to do renaming and load of other features.

I’d like to highlight one of the really nice features called “Mass Update” as this particular feature allows you to manage all of your TV shows simultaneously. For example if you want all of them to be in standard or high definition you can modify all of them at once or perhaps you want them to be put into season folders where the directory structure would look like the following

Example: TV Directory > TV Show Name > TV Show Season > TV Show Files

               D:/TV > The Sopranos > Season 1 > Sopranos 1×01 Episode Title

Under the “Manage” tab, click on “Mass update”

 

Click on “Mass Update” as shown.

Here select the top “Edit” button which will select all of your TV Shows

 

Scroll down to the bottom of the browser page where you will click on “Edit Selected.”

 

Here as shown above you can adjust the aforementioned settings (also shown below) that I talked about in addition to the root directory where you would like your TV shows to be placed. If you have any other questions please comment.

Thanks,
