Ok I finally took the time to look the show up at thetvdb.com and the title is "Once Upon a Time... Life", so put in a string replacement for that, and make sure it runs "before". Also I just noticed your filename format isn't right for season+title, because you are using the xx out of yy format.
So use string replacements before:
- "of26." with " - "
- ".Xvid.MP3.en.de.fr.es.mvgroup.org" with "<empty>"
- "Once.upon.a.time...Life." with "Once Upon A Time... Life S01E"
and you don't even require an extra regular expression then, because the default ones will work.
The above will turn: Once.upon.a.time...Life.02of26.Birth.Xvid.MP3.en.de.fr.es.mvgroup.org.avi
into: Once Upon A Time... Life S01E02 - Birth.avi
And that should guarantee a working match.

Yep i had that idea too last night and it solved it. My replacement is identical to yours, freaky eh?

Re: AW: Expressions/Rules requests
Hi,
I have issues parsing the following series:
90210
Melrose Place (2009)
V (2009)
All these series are failing because of the series names having numbers in them. Could anybody help out with some parsing expressions?

Re: AW: Expressions/Rules requests
Don't know German well enough to answer you back, so English it is. The "S3 E3" will not parse with the default regular expressions, you need to modify those, or convert it into "S3E03". And not sure if the German language string will match any results on thetvdb.com, so you might need to use the string replacements methods as well to convert those into English before they are being parsed. More help on this is available at the FAQ: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-tvseries-162/faq-frequently-asked-questions-read-first-76029/
Try Google Translate otherwise: Google Translate
Since these are TV based recordings, first try: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...-series-episodenumbers-your-mp-4tr-epg-76220/
That one is originally German based to properly rename TV shows for MP-TVSeries.
I use the same format, both in folder and filenames, and those shows work perfect for me.
Infact a few days ago I added "Human Target (2010)", and it added the right show automatic.
Use the FAQ @ https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-tvseries-162/faq-frequently-asked-questions-read-first-76029/ to diagnose the problem yourself, or make a screenshot looking like:
So that we can have an easier look as to why your shows aren't parsing correctly, because they will be highlighted in red in the pre-import stage.

hi RoChess,
thanks for your answer.
I already use the episodescanner. That´s why my files have episodes and numbers in the names.
I found on the episodescanner page some parsing expressions
^.*?\\(?<series>.*?) - \((?<title>.*?)\) S(?<season>[0-9]+?)E(?<episode>[0-9]+?) - [0-9]+-[0-9]+-[0-9]+ - [0-9]+_[0-9]+\.(?<ext>[^.]*)$
but these are for files with names like that:
%title%\%title% - (%name%) S%series%E%episode% - %date% - %start%
I think that Mediaportal makes a folder with the title as name and put the file in it.
I need no folder but a second title like that:
%title%_%title% - (%name%) S%series%E%episode% - %channel% - %date% - %start%
The big different is the first title and the channel. The channel is for comskip that cuts the commerzials ( for a good result i have a spezial comskip.ini for every german channel.)
A little script uses the first title to the first "_". the script recodes the files to h.264 and makes subfolders based of the title name and put all files with the same (first) title in it.
That means I need a parsing espression with a first title and channel.
Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad english. I hope you understand my problem.

Re: AW: Expressions/Rules requests
The order of the parsing expressions is important.
First parsing expression is used, if it fails, then next, etc.
However any parsing expression that gets some results is used and then it *STOPS* trying to use the others.
So move your new expression to the top, the up/down arrows in the parsing expressions don't work for me, so they might also not work for you, in that case do a mass copy and paste to move all the existing expressions down a spot, so you can insert your new one at the top position.
And if all that still fails, reply with a filename example that fails to parse for you, so that I can actually see why it doesn't get parsed.

I hope that Google Translate worked.
The problem is the single episode digit, and I don't have time to come up with RegExp for that, so put in the following "String Replacements" as per the FAQ with before checkbox enabled:
" Straffel " with " S0"
" - Folge 1" with "E01"
" - Folge 2" with "E02"
" - Folge 3" with "E03"
" - Folge 4" with "E04"
" - Folge 5" with "E05"
" - Folge 6" with "E06"
" - Folge 7" with "E07"
" - Folge 8" with "E08"
" - Folge 9" with "E09"
" - Folge " with "E"
You *HAVE* to use 00 format for episodes, hence the 9 entries to fix the single digit episodes would be required, all 10+ numbers are covered with the last line. This is why you need to use the exact order as I specified, or things will go wrong.
The result is that:
Scrubs Staffel 1 - Folge 3 - Mein Kunstfehler
Will be processed as:
Scrubs S01E03 - Mein Kunstfehler
And that will work for a positive match.
