    I did custom build with remapping wrongly recognized episodes. Will ability to map local ile to another online episode is ok for you?
    Or you need renaming too?

    The idea is that i VERY often scan my entire directory of files (tester for mp, multiple installs and uninstall quite often) and i want to click the "import button" and let it do everything relatively painlessly. Moving Pictures has a "rename all files/folders" option for after you have scanned everything correctly...so that the next time u do a full scan it wont take forever with lots of custom searching manually.

    Edalex is doing awesome work on GUI expansion of MP-TVSeries, and will quite possibly add your request, but what you are after is already possible very easy with SickBeard's "Manage" -> "Mass Update" -> "rename" checkbox option after you first tell it to add your entire collection via "Add Shows" -> "Add Existing Shows".

    Other solutions are TheReNamer and other tools that use TheTVdB, TVRage, wikipedia, etc to get the correct info from.

    Be aware that not many automated tools are capable of properly detecting between DVD-order and Air-order, so things might get renamed incorrect on shows that have a big discrepency between those two orders.

    OK, I'll try to investigate renaming and mass renaing functionality if you say so ;)

    Only if you really really want it :D

    Thanks for your contributions though, it has pushed some forward momentum into something a lot of users want even those who do not know they will love it.

    TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page. Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases. -- from...

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...
