Usage & keyboard shortcuts

The interface is textual-based: navigate with arrow keys and type in the search box.

Launch

python odyssey.py       # opens the interface
python odyssey.py ui    # same thing, but louder

The workflow that works

  1. Press / and type your search (arrow keys browse previous searches).
  2. Skim the results — each shows title, source(s), size, seeders, and a if it's already cached on RD.
  3. Press c to show only cached results when you want speed.
  4. Press Enter to download the focused row — or Space a bunch and press d to queue them.
  5. Watch the progress bar, enjoy the file.

Search syntax

  • Plain text works: Mr. Robot 1080p
  • min:N in the query filters by seed count: Mr. Robot 1080p min:20 → only non-spam 1080p results with 20+ seeders.
  • Combine with f (source) and c (cached-only) to narrow fast.

Downloads

  • Files land in ~/Downloads/Odyssey/ by default.
  • Change the destination permanently:
python odyssey.py prefs --dl-dir "D:\videos"
  • If a download dies with a 403 mid-flight, the RD link expired — run it again. The tool refuses to save the error page as your movie (we removed that bug).
