[QUOTE="gamejester, post: 173875, member: 50634"] Can anyone help me to change a regular expression to cope with my nested dir structure. I store episodes in this format M:\series\Lost\Season_1\Lost - 3x01 - A Tale of two cities.avi Then point he import path to M:\series None of the inbuilt regualr expressions work with this nesting so I have been using a simple expression I use this one: <series> - <season>x<episode> - <title>.<ext> but I now want to support double episodes. This expression is almost there as far as the file name is conerned, could my nested dir be stopping it from working? ^.*?\\?(?<series>[^\\$]+?)(?:s(?<season>[0-1]?\d)e(?<episode>\d\d)|(?<season>(?:[0-1]\d|(?<!\d)\d))x?(?<episode>\d\d))(?!\d)(?:[ .-]?(??<episode2>\d\d(?!\d))|E(?<episode2>\d\d)|(?: \d\d|(?<!\d)\d)x?(?<episode2>\d{2}(?!\d)))|)[ -.]*(?<title>[^\\]*?(?<HR>HR\.)?[^\\]*?)\.(?<ext>[^.]*)$ any help with this would be great.
