[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 721560, member: 18896"] The import path is not part of what the parsing expression works with. So since you in your method strip the series name from the path, it is IMPOSSIBLE for the parsing expression to get anything viable. So your ONLY solution is: Import path = "S:\TV Shows\" (or other name), and put all the series folders inside of it, such as "S:\TV Shows\24\..." Import path = "S:\24\" and duplicate the same series name structure, so you end up with "S:\24\24\..." Your 2nd method would mean you have to manually add each series/folder, which is a really weird way of going about a system that can be automated to make your life easier, so you really need to look into why "S:\TV Shows\" main folder structure doesn't work for you. A final solution would be to rename all your files, so you add the series name to the filename itself, then the 1st parsing expression will work and you can use any folder structure you want.
