[QUOTE="Neoculture, post: 1285188, member: 116834"] I have looked but I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. I have been collecting TV files for a long time and have got them split across 3 fileservers. My import paths are: \\NAS-001\Animation \\NAS-002\Japanese \\NAS-003\TV_Series All fileservers follow the same naming pattern: directory/series_name/season/filename "directory" is a way of breaking down the listing into something manageable, e.g.: 0-9 A B etc... "series name" is the name of the series as close to the TVDB's version as I can, e.g.: Mythbusters Star Blazers etc... "season" is the season and can be either: 0 Season <number> Season <year> where "0" denotes the specials, and the other are because sometimes a series has season numbers and sometimes (like Mythbusters) has season years. "filename" is: <episode#> - <title>.ext <episode#>-<episode#> - title.ext the second one being for two-parters. So, for example, one of the "filenames" that MPT-TV Series finds when doing the import is S\Star Blazers\Season 01\04 - Test Warp to Mars.avi which should hopefully become: SERIES: Star Blazers SEASON: 01 EPISODE: 04 NAME: Test Warp to Mars EXTENSION: avi Similarly: M\Magnum,P.I.\Season 01\01-02 - Don't Eat the Snow in Hawaii.avi should become: SERIES: Magnum, P.I. SEASON: 01 EPISODE: 01 EPISODE2: 02 NAME: Don't Eat the Snow in Hawaii EXTENSION: avi And: M\Mythbusters\Season 2003\04 - Exploding Toilet.avi should become: SERIES: Mythbusters SEASON: 2003 EPISODE: 04 NAME: Exploding Toilets EXTENSION: avi While: B\Babylon 5\0\03 - Thirdspace.avi should become: SERIES: Babylon 5 SEASON: 0 EPISODE: 03 NAME: Thirdspace EXTENSION: avi I tried using the regexp: ^.*?\\<series>\\Season (?<season>[0-9]{1,2})\\(?<episode>[0-9]{1,2})(?:-(?<episode2>[0-9]{1,2})) - <title>.<ext>$ but that didn't seem to don anything. Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong. (and no, renaming files is not an option - I currently have over 21,000 of them) Thanks. [/QUOTE]
