    Well I just don't get it then!

    It keeps using the filename (SxxExx - <title>) as the <series> name, and as there's no series by those names it can't find anything...

    Hi - i've added you to my MSN list - ten96@hotmail.com - perhaps we can figure out your problem there.

    Syntax for addseries function

    First: BEST plugin ever!!!! Keep up the good work!

    Can anyone tell me how the syntax for adding the files work?

    I have "The O.C." located in a folder named the same. All files are named "the.o.c.000.hdtv-lol.avi where the firs zero represents the season and the second and third represents the episode number. When scanning, it asks which series this is but does not suggest the correct series.

    A search on TV.com list the series immidiately.

    How can I modify the syntax to find the correct series. The following is quite uncomprihensible, so I need some guiding.

    ((?<series>[^$]*) - \'\'(?<title>[^$]*)\'\'

    Hmm, I just found out that I made a little mistake when I first asked my question.

    My dir listings are like this:

    F:\Series\<series title>\Season <season number>\S<season number>E<episode number> - <episode title>

    I don't know if it makes any difference? If nobody knows exatly what to write, then I just need some pointers about what the different signs and letters mean, then I can probably figure it out myself.

    I tried to download information from king of queens.
    When the episodes was not named king of queens it had to manualy input the name.

    It would be nice if your plugin could use the foldername as the name of the series and the name of the files inside as titles for the episodes as an option.
    Also a cancel button would be nice when you are in the prosess of downloading information.

    This is just minor details, not very important.

    keep up the incredible work :D

    That's exactly my problem! My episode names are in my folders, but not in the filename. I don't really mind that the program can't figure everything out by itself, but I don't even get asked about the show name, so I can't type it myself...

    Still getting a strange error message

    Hi everyone,

    I'm still getting this strange error message with the latest version of this awesome plugin :

    mytvseries4.jpg


    I just installed 0.2 RC3 today but I've been having this problem even with RC2 as well as the previous versions of MyTVSeries. The video will play fine using BSPlayer but when I quit from BSPlayer, I keep getting this error messae.

    I cleared out the log files prior to capturing this error message.

    Sharpee,

    Honestly, you don't need the epsiode name in the file anymore - this plugin goes and fetches it for you anyway:)

    my folders are named:

    P:\<show>\Season <Z>\ZZxYY - desc.avi>

    i.e: P:\24\The Unit\Season 1\01x03 - hostage.avi

    Where 01x03 is season 1 episode 3.

    This i have found works a charm! for me.

    Hi, I'm new to this forum and MP, so excuse me if I ask a question that's already been answered (I have been searching for an answer, but no luck)

    This really looks like a cool plugin, expecially because I get all my tv shows online, and therefore have them stored on my disks! I just have one small problem with the config. The config program can't figure the show title out, and believe me I've tried to figure out how to make the right "Regular Expression Parser"!

    Well my dir listings are as follows:

    F:\Series\<series>\<season x>\SxxExx - <title>

    Where the xx is the season and episode number.
    Can somebody please help me getting this right?

    I Gotta Work on that. Currently the file parser will get information from filename, not the path. I will fix this when I have a chance
