Auto-download bittorrent RSS feeds via Automator
Authored by: lowbatteries on May 08, '09 08:50:40AM

I have a nearly identical automator workflow for this! I should've posted it long ago and maybe saved you some time.

1. Get Feeds From Safari
2. Filter Articles (with various filters)
3. Mark Articles (as read)
4. Get Enclosure URLs from Articles
5. Download URLs
6. Open Finder Items

A few caveats:

- it seems that when my workflow runs, any full-screen video becomes windowed (netflix/hulu/itunes).
- I also seem to have to run Safari at least once after the computer starts up in order for the RSS feed to update.

I can put up a link to my version if anyone is lazy or wants a jumping off point, just reply to my comment if you're interested.
