[QUOTE="gamejester, post: 296240, member: 50634"] As we cannot rely on the first item returned in the list being the one you want we compare what we think is the movie title based on the file name to each returned movie from the search. The reason yours is matching to other movies is because you have file names with additional straings. So it matches you file name somthing like 300 720p dimmension h.265 5.1 other stuff.mkv agains the returned list 300 300 mil do niebi 300 Premiership Goals etc.... As far as the algorithum is concerned one of the later ones will score higher as a match than 300 as they will have more characters and length in common with your original string. Nothing we can do about that as the movie might actual be called 300 720p dimmension h.265 5.1 other stuff in which case we are doing the right thing. The only ways to fix this are: 1. You fix up your files names by creating a script that renames the file to that of the folder - this is your quickest and cleanest solution 2. We add a new feature whereby it allowes the user to add strings to string from a file name - this will have to be maintained by each user and as the scene changes might be a pain to keep upto date. 3.
