Hello,

I have four seasons of American Dad on my HDD. Although, the filename is as following:
01-01 - American Dad - Pilot.avi
01-23 - American Dad - Tears of a Clooney.avi

Where the first two digits are the season number and the other two digits the episode number.

I have tried this but it doesn't work:
<series>\Season <season>\Episode 0<season>-0<episode> - <series> - <title>.<ext>

MyTVseries is unable to parse these files default. Is there anyone who can help me with a parsing expression for this?

:D

By the way, it's in a structure like this:
<search root>\American Dad\Season 1\<the files>

    This seemed to work (before my test PC crashed). At least it was detected OK.

    <season>-<episode> - <series> - <title>.avi

    That should prolly work, when you change .avi to .<ext> so make it:

    <season>-<episode> - <series> - <title>.<ext>

    That doesn't seem to be working. Maybe I have to take the folder structure it is in into account?

    Nah, i've got a a simular setup. I've got all my series on E: drive, every serie has it's own directory, in those directories i've got the files, so it's like this on my side:

    E:\Flashpoint\Flashpoint - 01.01.mkv

    Got TV-Series searching on E:
    Regex (simple): <series> - <season>.<episode>.<ext>

    The plugin already seperates all seasons by itself, so no need to put every season in a seperate directory, unless you like to keep those extra organised on your HDD yourself.

    Your filenames:
    01-01 - American Dad - Pilot.avi
    01-23 - American Dad - Tears of a Clooney.avi

    Should work with:
    <season>-<episode> - <series> - <title>.<ext>

    Make sure you set the parsing expressions with that regex code (simple). Make sure checkbox is enabled and disable all others regexcodes.
