What is this?

Blueprints for a system that automates the download, encoding, naming and metadata tagging of Movies and TV shows. Comprised of:
- Baremetal host (front-end) for file management and sharing
- Linux VM or baremetal (back-end) for search and download (SickBeard, CouchPotato, HeadPhones, SABnzbd)
- BASH post-processing script (tardisIVRvideo.sh) that renames, encodes and tags (tvnamer, HandBrake, AtomicParsley) compatibile with media sharing environments; iTunes/AppleTV, Plex, DLNA, FireTV, Roku, anything!

Baremetal host with plenty of redundant storage
- e.g. Win8.x Pro w/ Hyper-V, Linux w/ Proxmox, Apple w/ Virtualbox
Linux virtual guest or standalone baremetal machine
- e.g. ubuntu-12.04.3-server-amd64.iso, RAM 1-2GB, HD 8-12GB, CPU 2+ cores, Bridged networking
Strong understanding of SABnzbd, SickBeard, CouchPotato, HeadPhones (you know there are a ton of settings right? this adds more settings...)

Patience and/or love of a challenge(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ

tardisIVRvideo.sh BASH script supports run scenarios:
- via SABnzbd categories post-processing
- locally via shell
- recursive via shell -- i.e. process all Season subfolders
- remotely via Windows/plink.exe
- see the Wiki for examples
Uses/depends-on post-processing folder workflow in SABnzbd, SickBeard, and CouchPotato
Supports TV SeasonEpisode (S01E01) and Dated (2013-08-01) filenames
Attempts to improve SABnzbd filename stripping (PROPER, 1080p, 720p)

See the Wiki for installation and configuration of the remote execution. (plink.exe) from Windows -> Linux
plink-tardisIVR.bat -- Windows script
plink-tardisIVR.sh -- Linux script
