I have my episodes in this format

D:\video\tv-series\Lost\Lost [03x01].avi

I'll try to use simple expression \<series> [<season>x<episode>].<ext>

Import path is D:\video\tv-series\


What am I doing wrong?

At the risk of sounding like an idiot :sorry: ...

Thus far my double episodes refused to be parsed ... I'm basically running the default regex setup (I suck at string manip, so I didn't poke at it) except for a couple of trials of the expressions posted in this thread ... It's really starting to give me the irits :mad:

My file names come in several flavours like:
"Stargate Atlantis - 1x01-02 - Rising.avi"
"Buffy the Vampire Slayer - 6x01,02 - Bargaining Part 1 & 2.avi"
"Star Trek Enterprise - 1x01-1x02 - Broken Bow.avi"

There are less than a dozen files involved, but getting the automated parsing functioning correctly now means I won't have to check for double episodes requiring manual adds further down the line ...

:D

I use '<series> S01E01E02.avi' and it works fine. Episode 1 and 2 in MP MyTVSeries points to the same file. I use only the standard expressions.

I recommend using F2 Batch File Renamer if you want to change your filenames. Use the following rename schemes (copy & paste);

Pattern:
Code:
(.*) - (.?)x(.?.?)(,|-)(.?x)(.?.?) - (.*)\.(.*)
Rename to:
Code:
%1 - S0%2E%3E%6 - %7.%8

Pattern:
Code:
(.*) - (.?)x(.?.?)(,|-)(.?.?) - (.*)\.(.*)
Rename to:
Code:
%1 - S0%2E%3E%5 - %6.%7

Use both of them in two runs, and all the files marked as the examples you gave, will be renamed.

Ofcourse, you could add a new regex to MyTVSeries, but in my case, I prefer to just change the filenames.

How does this plugin display double episodes? For example

My Show - 02x02-03 - Hello.avi

Would that show up as 02x02, 02x03, or both?

I really can't seem to get my head around to get the hang of the regexp.

Want to add shows with f.ex this format: my.name.is.earl.s03e21-e22.720p.hdtv.x264-ctu.mkv

It only adds as episode 21 with the default expressions. Anyone able to help?

im having the same problem trying to parse it to show 2 episodes..

File Example:

That 70s Show\7 - 24-25 -

im using this Expression:
Code:
(?<series>[^\\$]+)\\(?<season>[0-9]+) - (?<episode>[0-9]+)(-(?<episode2>[0-9]+))? -\.(?<ext>[^.]*)$

and when I do a parsing test the EpisodeIndex2 displays the correct Episode number but when I go into the database or into my tv shows it doesnt show the 2nd episode, only the first..

any ideas??

fixed the episode naming above ^. There was no error in the naming of the file itself. Every time I enter TV Series, it tries to re-scan the episodes. The series appears for just a few seconds and disappears again.

Sorry, it's my fault -- I did not notice that you are using MP2. :( MP1 has a separate configuration utility, similar to "TV Server Config".

I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.
