Deluge 1.3-rc1 w/ FlexGet on Windows

[bcode]

Hrm, looks like you've got 2 errors going on... It looks like the RSS feed needs to be XML (wasn't sure about that, but your error log seems to suggest it), and part of your Deluge/FlexGet install is not registered with flexget.

I'd say the first error is the more important of the two at the moment - since there is no sense reinstalling things if your RSS feed is not compatible. Does your torrent site offer different feed types?

Currently waiting on a official answer, but it seems thus far they do not...

All that work for nothing... and I really wanted to get rid of utorrent =/

Ran it with your version and got:
2010-08-18 09:30 CRITICAL deluge Deluge module and it's dependencies required. ImportError: No module named twisted.internet.protocol

Deluge does not install it's dependencies to the system on Windows. You might try just installing twisted manually to solve that error.
If you want every item in a feed, you actually need a filter plugin still, specifically, accept_all. Like so:

Code: Select all

feeds:
  feed_name:
    rss: http://example.com/rss.php?feed=X
    accept_all: yes
    deluge: yes

As for the invalid xml problem, does the file that flexget writes, (C:\Users\NAME\.flexget\received\test.xml,) look like the actual feed, or an error page, as the error message suggests?
EDIT: Also, https should work.

The feed appears to have nothing in it at all. If I open the .xml in IE it just keeps loading....

I'll try it again.

appears I'm getting a new problem now I've installed twisted.

I really appreciate all the help I'm getting from you guys.

xdg shouldn't be required on windows, I've filed a bug report. You could try fixing that bug by hand, (just delete the import line mentioned in the bug report.) You might get some more dependency errors, there is a tip here to find them faster, then do some google searching to get them.
EDIT: I have removed the xdg requirement for Windows in the git repo, next rc shouldn't need it.

I added some links to the dependencies you will need to install on windows here. (including pyxdg, so you don't have to wait for the next rc)

Thanks mate, installing them now.
Lets see what happens

After installing the dependency i still get the fault with the feed.

How does flexget handle RSS feeds that require authorisation (aka logging in/cookie handling).

How does flexget handle RSS feeds that require authorisation (aka logging in/cookie handling).

That's a good question - The private tracker that I use puts the authorization cookie in the feed URL, to bypass the need to login each time... gazpachoking, do you have any info that would help answer this question?
