Should I implement an automatic file organizer to move and rename files?

Thanks Jay.

Now I don't have to translate my Danish tv-shows on EPW, as the importer only accepts English episode listings.

And I can input the shows with an '. :)

I've unsuccessfully tried opening the database with notepad earlier :)

Thanks again.

I have tried numerous times to import Eureka.
My test file is called Eureka - 1x1 - Pilot Part (1&2).avi
I have been using a simple parsing expression but its a no go.
I have found that if I just have a title of Eureka, it finds it.
The rest of the time it finds Eureka Seven.
Can you tell me what parse expression that your using.

Simple parsing expression (I think) uses folder structure, were as you want to use the Regular Expression Parsing which runs off the filename.

Give that a try

I Simply LOVE this plugin!

Still it would be great if, when the plugin can't find an episode, you can just browse through al the series and episodes. Then if you find the matching episode, you select it and the information will be downloaded to the database.

This is because when I run the parser it doesn't recognize al episodes (like specials, and episode names that start with a number or a symbol like "(" ). A screen will then popup to ask me which series the file belongs to. But the options that I can choose are very often way off.

And maybe, if the episode isn't listed on TV.com, you can manually add your own information.

I hope something like this can be implemented

p.s: I was wondering why the "Configuration" tab is empty, and why some if the options in the "Import Video -> Options" tab are greyed out (when selecting the other boxes, it doesn't seem to do anything either)

no go.
no matter what I try. it won't parse out Eureka - 1x1 - Pilot Part (1&2).avi
It for some reason parses out the whole file name as the series name yet parses out hte episode and title correctly. then when it searches it it finds Eurka Seven.
Not the ned of the world, but thats what automation is for.:confused:

I have no problems with Eureka on my machine, the only difference i have is that i have it written as Eureka - 1x01 - Pilot. If you click test before you import it should give you an idea of why it's not working as it should show you the parsed results of the name.

Try testing on another file. It's not smart testing on a pilot and a double episode.

Try parsing "Eureka - 1x3 - rtyhjnnjbjhj.avi"

It works for me too. I renamed some file to eureka.1x1&2.avi and imported it with the Simple expression parser. Works like a charm.

Edit:

Just realized that the pilot is a double episode which isn't listed as two episodes on EPW. You should simple remove the title (the "(1&2)" propably messes up the import) and import it as : Eureka - 1x1 - Pilot.avi or eureka.1x1.avi

Hey, it's great to see that this kind of plugin is coming out on something else than meedio :)
I'm trying to make the jump!

But, I have one issue. Why is the regex matched right to left? I usually use Regexbuddy to test my regex, and RTL isn't (I think) supported, so I end up testing things "in the dark" and I can't make it work.
In meedio I coded my regex importer, and it didn't use RTL, yet it worked fine. Could this be toggled somehow?
I match using folders and I can't figure out a way to make it work. I have the full name of the file without extension in the series all the time no matter what I try - but it might just come from the fact I'm not able to design a RTL regexp properly :(

You might want to post examples of your RegEx and filenames(with path).

HTH,
