Any chance to have a look? I steh backup working for you?I think that is the way I am using it. Will check as soon as I am back home (this evening). Otherwise as a workaround: create a link to the directory without spaces in its name

I need to stand corrected about my satisfaction - I just started looking a bit deeper again into my series results and they all fail for different reasons. Sendung mit der Maus just does not find anything, Wissen Mach Ah is a little different in Episode name, fuzzy does not succeed and the walking dead is not even searched, even though it is scheduled (it is recording an episode right now).
Log attached.
