MyTVSeries - Plugin that organizes TV Video Files (3 Viewers)

[butlerat]

Any chance that after you play an episode that it returns to the list for the season but the episode just played is selected. Its annoying after an episode has played that the 1st episode of the series is highlighted.

Should be any easy addition I hope!

Thanks

Re: File Naming

I found the error. It seems that the database technology used in MP doesn't like 2 single quotes. I have fix this issue in version 0.29a and up.

Oh yeah.. Here is your regular expression you need for you TIVO files:

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

You'll have to add it yourself to your database, or you can delete your database, and it will automatically be added when it gets re-created.

Just wanted let you know that I with a little help from Renamer and some creative regex's, I was was able to get my files named the way I want and get them to import into the database. Thanks for your help and a great plug-in!

Hi,

It's a great plugin.

Some bugs/suggestions :

- Bugs :

• In "Import Videos" : If you click on "test" button with no folders added, you get an exception.
• Parse files with ' each scanning (even if already added) and parse 'x in 'X. (see log)
• When your are in the series list (not in the configuration panel, it's on mediaportal) if you are on a serie with no image it's the previous serie's image witch is displayed.

- Suggestion :

• Transform"start" button into "cancel" during scanning (handy when you select "C:\" instead of "C:\TV\" ^^ )
• Add Regular Expression excluder. (when you have several version of an episode)
• Make possible to associate one file to several episodes.

* ability to add files to ignore list
* viewed or non-viewed episodes are visible in GUI

Re: Syntax for addseries function

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.

Here is the Regular Expression:

(?<series>[^$]*) (?<season>[0-9])(?<episode>[0-9]{1,2})*

 

[WeeToddDid]

[*]In "Import Videos" : If you click on "test" button with no folders added, you get an exception.

Fixed in next version

Parse files with ' each scanning (even if already added) and parse 'x in 'X. (see log)

Don't know what you mean...

When your are in the series list (not in the configuration panel, it's on mediaportal) if you are on a serie with no image it's the previous serie's image witch is displayed.

Added in next version

Transform"start" button into "cancel" during scanning (handy when you select "C:\" instead of "C:\TV\" ^^ )

Added in next version

Add Regular Expression excluder. (when you have several version of an episode)

I don't understand..

Make possible to associate one file to several episodes.

You already can. Double click on an episode that you want to add a file to. Then Double click on the filename field.

Re: Still getting a strange error message

Hi everyone,

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

Can you play this file in "My Videos"?

 

[WeeToddDid]

I have posted the source codes and binary files for version 0.31a here.

- I have fixed the bugs mentioned in the previous posts.
- When you start importing the start button will switch to cancel.
- Images will be inherited from previous level.
- Images for episodes can now be in the same folder as the video file. The image file must be the same filename as the video file (with the exception of the extension).

I am looking into switching the regular expression parser to search the entire path+filename. However this is not as easy as it looks. I can't figure out how to write a regular expression to say "match to the last occurance of '\'". If anyone knows how to do this, let me know.

Here is on my to do list:
* toggle button which shows/hides episodes that´s in certain season but is not on harddrive
* Parse Path name like <series>\<season x>\SxxExx - <title
* after you play an episode that it returns to the list for the season but the episode just played is selected
* ability to refesh single seasons, say only the latest
* ability to add files to ignore list
* viewed or non-viewed episodes are visible in GUI

Also re-use MyMovies ability to start an episode, where you left of. It's a field in the Movies database that stores the time watched, when pressing the stop button. The next time you'll select the episode, it asks if it should start at this point or restart.

Also don't forget to bring some information into the OSD.

I've just found this amazing Plugin which sure looks promising. I have found the right way to name my files (trial and error). When I test the filenames the all get the right season, episode and name. But when I start the whole thing they all get database id -1 and after a while MP configuration crashes...gulp...why?

The series I have are somewhat old E.g "A bit of Fry and Laurie" - I hope that isn't a problem?

Thanks for your time!
