Enable Completed Download Handling by toggling the switch on the Sonarr Settings -> Download Client page. -###### Unsupported: Download Client on Different Computer +###### All: Download Client on Different Computer _As mentioned earlier, Completed Download Handling gets the file path to the download directly from the Download Client. Such a path is inaccessible from different computers and would prevent Completed Download Handling from importing the download._ -The best solution to this problem is to run Sonarr and your Download Client on the same computer. +In Settings->Download Client->Remote Path Mapping is an option to configure Sonarr to translate the remote path to something locally accessible. -_There are some advanced options to work around this limitation, but those will not be discussed here_ +For example: +If I configured a remote Sabznzbd instance named 'MySab' in Sonarr. And that Sabnzbd instance uses `/sda3/download/sabnzbd/completed` as root folder for completed downloads. And that path is available as `\\10.2.3.4\sabnzbd\completed` on my Windows machine. +Then you would add a Remote Path Mapping for Host=MySab, RemotePath=`/sda3/download/sabnzbd`, LocalPath=`\\10.2.3.4\sabnzbd`. -##### Keeping Completed Download Handling disabled - -If you absolutely want to keep using the Drone Factory: - -1. Enable Completed Download Handling and Save. -2. Disable Completed Download Handling and Save. - -This will permanently remove the warning. - -##### Advanced Configuration/Migration Options - -The above scenarios were written to avoid complex choices. If you're a Power User you might want to have a couple of different options: - -* Change the Drone Factory folder to a different path. (this is actually what I did) - You still have to remove the Drone Factory Post-Processing script, if you previously used it. - -* Change the output path of your existing category. - You still have to remove the Drone Factory Post-Processing script, if you previously used it. - -* Simply disable the Drone Factory entirely. - You still have to remove the Drone Factory Post-Processing script, if you previously used it. - -Not creating a new category may cause a couple of old imported downloads to show up as queued, removing them from the Download Client history resolves that. - -_As you can see, these are quite a number of choices and potential issues we tried to avoid by providing a couple of basic steps._ +However, the best solution to this problem is to run Sonarr and your Download Client on the same computer.
