    This post normally goes into the sticky thread for Expression requests, but here goes:

    Since I can not see what actions you took in the import wizard, I can only give you help based on your log file in normal mode. Debug mode would have given me a lot more info, so my help is restricted.

    As an example: "the unit\season 2\S02E05.Force.Majeure.avi" is only seen as "S02E05.Force.Majeure.avi" by the filename expression, so it is unable to get the series/show title from it.

    "The.X-Files\season 4\The.X-Files.4-xx.Behind.The.Truth.DVDRip.XviD-Lgn.avi" has no episode information, and this is more then likely a special, so you need to map this to the Season 0 information as per TheTVdB website for that show. Same for the Season 3 stuff you have.

    You need the following simple filters:

    1. <series>\Season <season>\S<season>E<episode>.<title>.<ext>
    2. <series>\Season <season>\<season>x<episode>.<title>.<ext>

    And you need to rename a lot of your other failed episodes for, X-Files, SGA and Farscape as they lack S..E.. information, which is crucial for matching. Simply look up each episode on TheTVdB website manually and rename accordingly.

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    I have also had this problem in the past. There are two components to this problem: Your internet router is pinging the HTPC at regular intervals in order to see if the HTPC is still present on the network. The network adapter in the HTPC has "Wake on Lan" enabled. So at the end of a recording, the HTPC transitions from away mode to...
