Expressions/Rules requests (4 Viewers)

[MrHaugland]

Could someone here be so generous to write me an expression? I`m new to parsing expressions, and therefor need help getting MP - TVSeries to find my video_ts files (if thats possible?)

The directory is following:
F:/TV shows/Friends/Season 1/Episode 1 - 8/VIDEO_TS/all the containing files.

I have no problems editing the directories if that makes it easier, nor changing from video_ts folder to .iso

 

[MrHaugland]

How did other people solve this problem? Sure that I'm not the only one with series from ripped dvd.

I resolved with the regex that randell made

(?<series>[^\\$]*)\\Season (?<season>[0-9]{1,2})\\Episode (?<episode>[0-9]{1,2})(?:-(?<episode2>[0-9]{1,2}))?.*\\VIDEO_TS\\VIDEO_TS.IFO

The key is that I ripped each episode in its own folder using Dvd Fab platinum with the multidisc option, which was the only one to not only separate the titles, but also choose languagee and subtitle and select the default.

I play everything in english with subs because English is not my first language and I desire to watch movies and series in its original language.

This means that by using DVD Fab Plat. I can split up my friends folder, which is "Episode 1 - 8/Video_TS" into single episodes, and thereby getting them to work with Randell`s regexp?

How did you name your filestructure?

Would it be something like this:
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 1/Episode 1/Video_ts
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 1/Episode 2/Video_ts
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 1/Episode 3/Video_ts
.
.
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 2/Episode 1/Video_ts
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 2/Episode 2/Video_ts

Please help with the parsing - Expressions of a DVD-Rip

Hi Community!

I have ripped my "House M.D." with DVDFab to HD. This is my File -Structure:

e:\TV Serien\ Dr. House\Staffel 1\S01E01 - Schmerzensgrenzen\VIDEO_TS\"files"
e:\TV Serien\ Dr. House\Staffel 1\S01E02 - Falsche Geschichte\VIDEO_TS\"files"
.....
....

Please help to get a "pasing expression" for this structure!

Regards
Helios

 

[MrHaugland]

Try:

(?<series>[^\\$]*)\\Season (?<season>[0-9]{1,2})\\Episode (?<episode>[0-9]{1,2})(?:-(?<episode2>[0-9]{1,2}))?.*\\VIDEO_TS\\VIDEO_TS.IFO

That is for a structure like this: (my own example)
F:/TV Shows/Friends/Season 1/Episode 01/VIDEO_TS/

 

[Helios61]

Thanks for your help MrHaugland, but it doesn't work. I would like to have the Names and Numbers of the Episode in my Folder-Names!

Regards
Helios

HI all, need some help with a expression for the new 90210 series.

I have a file named like : 90210.s01e01e02.....

problem is that mp-tvseries recognizes it like this:
Parsed series name: 9
Season ID: 02
Episode ID: 10

can anyone give me some advice on how to fix this?

The Late Show with David Letterman has seasons with 100+ episodes. None of the defualt parsing expressions seem to account for this. For example:

letterman.1517.avi is parsed correctly as season 15 episode 17 BUT

letterman.13105.ep2518.avi is parsed as Season 1 Episode 5

How can I get it to parse as Season 13 Episode 105?

Thank you!

I am trying to come to grips with this great plugin but am struggling a bit with some of the naming expressions. It doesn't help that I have a variety of different models depending on when I ripped the series as backup. I would prefer not to have rename the media files as they are already backed-up to DVD in these conventions. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Also, I would love it to keep it simple, rather than the regex expessions. Thanks.

The below are examples of how they are stored to HDD & their paths with naming conventions.

Stargate SG1: there are 10 season folders
J:\Stargate SG1\Season 1\A18-Solitudes.mkv (where A designates season one & 18 equals the episode). (Season two would = B etc).

Babylon 5: there are 5 season folders & one for the movies
H:\Babylon5\Season2\2.05-The Long Dark.mkv (where 2 designates season 2 & 05 equals the episode).

X-Files, Firefly & The Outer Limits are all named in the above convention.

Here's one I might have to rename, but if possible to avoid would be great.

Star Trek Voyager: there are 7 season folders
H:\Star Trek\Voyager\Season 3\3A9-Future's End-part 2.mkv
H:\Star Trek\Voyager\Season 3\3B1-Warlord.mkv

The above 2 files are sequential episodes. It was an early attempt at naming for Nero Burning to DVD. The 3 designates the season (3) & A9 & B1 equal successive episodes.

I have set the import paths in My-TVSeries plugin to:
H:\Star Trek\Voyager
H:\Babylon 5 -should this simple expression work? <series>\<season>\<season>.<episode>-<title>.<ext>
J:\Stargate SG1
etc.



I want to confirm there are no expression issues before I post further as I seem to be having trouble getting what should be properly named files to load. They seem to parse correct but show no genuine season ID.
