I cannot get the Parsing search engine to work...

I have a folder called "TV Series" inside I have my favorite TV Series...

...snip...

How do I need to set up the Parsing Code in order to work for both cases?

Alex,

It's a little hard to be sure what your after as the formatting of your post (putting [noparse]

 and

[/noparse] tags around this sort of stuff can help)

If your trying to match stuff like:

Supernatrual\Season 1\01x01 - title.ext
Band of Brothers\Season 1\01x02 - title.ext​

The expression I posted in Expressions Rules Exchange (Post #25) should cover these.

Hello,

I have all the seriies with this format:

Scrubs\stagione 1\1-11[Scrubs] title.ext

sometimes

Scrubs\stagione 1\1-11+12[Scrubs] title.ext

thanks

PS: i've tried very hard, but it's too difficult :sorry:

Try:

#1 = simple = <series>\stagione <season>\<season>-<episode>[<series>] <title>.<ext>
#2 = simple = <series>\stagione <season>\<season>-<episode>+<episode2>[<series>] <title>.<ext>

Be sure to put them at the top, or they might never be used as false positives could be generated by other expressions otherwise. I can't remember is <episode2> is supported by the simple expression method, so if it fails let me know and i will create you a single RegExp entry.

Thank you for the very (very very) fast reply

I've just put these simple expression before wrote here, but i 'don't know because they don't work

All my series are like, from the unit folder, like:

E:\serie TV\The Shiled\stagione 6\6-05[The Shield] title.avi

In the import paths, i put in E:\serie TV
I disabled all string replacements because i clean the filenames by myself (with lupas renamer).
I disabled all other parsing expression.

the program return, for each file:

compiling parsing expression
cannot use the following expression: analisi di "(?<Parsed_Name>[^\\]*?)\\stagione (?<SeasonIndex>[^\\]*?)\\(?<SeasonIndex>[^\\]*?)-(?<EpisodeIndex>[^\\]*?)[(?<Parsed_Name>[^\\]*?)] (?<LocalEpisodeName>[^\\]*?)\.(?<ext>[^\\]*)" - Troppe parentesi di chiusura. in corso...
Finished compiling Parsing expression, found 0 valid expressions

Ok, so you needed a full RegExp then, so add:

#1 = regexp = ^(?:.*\\)?(?<season>\d+)\-(?<episode>\d+)(?:[+]+(?<episode2>\d+))?\[(?<series>.+)\][ _.\-]*(?<title>(?![^\\].*?(?<!the)[ .(-]sample[ .)-]).*?)\.(?<ext>[^\.\\]*)$

Enjoy

sorry, don't work :sorry:

i suppose that's more easy renames the files in another format

 

[RoChess]

sorry, don't work :sorry:

I can only test in Expresso, but based on your folder+file examples it should work. So did u perhaps not copy and paste the expression properly? Or forget to switch it to a 'RegExp' entry?

Otherwise switch MP-TVSeries into debug mode inside configuration and provide the log files when you try to parse. The log files in debug mode will reveal more on what exactly is failing then.

the string is pasted correctly

i don't be able to found the debug mode
i had found the guide DevelopersGuide - mptvseries - Developer's Guide - Project Hosting on Google Code "debugging in media portal
but i don't understand "Right Click on the MediaPortal project" : where ?

thank you for the patience

 

[Inker]

That guide is meant for developers, you don't need to read it.

What he meant was:
Open MP-TVSeries configuration
Go to general tab and you see a dropdown box named Log that is set to Normal.
Change that to Debug

In the import tab, there aren't any error message:

Compiling parsing expression
found 1 valid expression
Compiling replacement expression
found 0 valid expression
starting parsing test
found 1270 supported video files
starting local filename parsing
parsing test completed

parsing failed for........(for any file)

PS:how export the log files?

However, the default parsiing expression succesfully work with file named <series> - <season>x<episode> - <title>.<ext>
Probabily, i spend less time (my and yours time) to rename all series files (with lupas renamer or another program it isn't too difficult)

Thank you

PPS: A LAST DUBT!

it's possible that the expression don't work because i put the series name into "brakets" ?

season-episode[series] title.exte

there is an error in log text: "too many closing parenthesis"

YESSSS!!!!
the import script don't like parenthesis () or brakets [] in the filename

i must rename all file name changing the brakets with another simbol

You must put this error in the main page for all other user
