Hi forum,

on thetvdb.com the old Tom & Jerry Seasons are not listet with Season 1 Season 2 etc but with Season 1940, Season 1950 and Season 1960.
I named my files with S1940E01, S1940 E02, S1950E01, S1950E02 and so on....
My TVSeries does find all Episodes Plots and Episode Images but not the Season Cover for the 1950 and 1960 Season. The cover fpr the 1940 Season was found.

Any ideas about that.

I tried to let the naming change on thetvdb.com but in thier eyes this is not a website but a software(My TVSeries) problem and my thread was closed and locked very quick :mad:

So i hope for help here.

Thanks guys
Henric

i think my parsing expressions are different but maybe you get the picture.

    Delete the show from MP-TVSeries database, enable debug-log-mode for MP-TVSeries (adjust drop down option from normal to debug), and then re-import the Tom & Jerry files. Share this log file as an attachment in a reply to this thread, so that the developers have something to look at to see what exactly is happening so they can fix it.

    Sorry to drag up an old thread - search brought me to this one

    I'm having a similar problem to the OP. As the seasons are named as years (Season 1940, Season 1950 etc) I named my folders as follows:-

    TV Shows\Tom and Jerry\Season 1940\s1940e01.mkv

    MyTVSeries is truncating the year in both the season folder and name to 19, which of course is unrecognisable to the tvdb and I therefore get no download of any information, poster art etc at all

    Was this ever resolved and I'm just missing it?, if so what was the solution.

    Thanks

    The first parsing expression in the list can handle years in the filenames...but I think your case its using another parsing expression which probably doesnt not support it.

    I bet if your filename also included the series name (and you have cleared your parsing expressions so you are using the latest), it should work.

    Damien thanks for the response will have a look.

    Parsing expressions certainly not my speciality.

    This was a fresh MyTVSeries install yesterday with the current version.

    Is there not a hierarchy order when parsing?

    Damian - adding the show name to the filename worked a treat - thanks for the help - much appreciated.

    To answer my own question re hierarchy - presumably the hierarchy only kicks where a match is found - obviously without the name, which the first expression expects, it moves on till it reached my own custom expressions and tried to match only on the Season and Episode details :oops: Perhaps time to rename my files accordingly. :D

    You need to use a regular expression that supports 4 digit season numbers. That's all.

    Here is the one for a "Show Name SxxxxExx" format that imported Tom and Jerry for me:

    Code:
    ^.*?\\?(?<series>[^\\$]+?)(?:s(?<season>\d{4})e(?<episode>\d{2,3}))(?!\d)(?:(?:s\k<season>e(?<episode2>\d{2,3}(?!\d))|E(?<episode2>\d{2,3}))|).*?\s*-*\s*(?<title>.*?)\.(?<ext>[^.]*)$

    Thanks Scythe - got the issue resolved, renaming to a format supported by the first default expression did the trick, but thanks for the tip.
