specify episode only by "<series>-<title>" in filename possible? (1 Viewer)

[olli14]

Hi,
I am recording the series "Golden girls". The filenames doesn't have the episode number and series number although I have installed "TV movie EPG Import ++" and "Episodenscanner". The filename has only the series name and the series title e.g. "Golden girls-the doughter.ts". So my question is: is it possible for myTVSeries to specify the episode only by using the series name and the episode name? How do I have to configure the "parsing expression" in myTVSeries?

I'm not positive that part has been made functional yet.

I know airdate matching has been added, but I'm not sure to what extend episode title works. You can always 'test' this though. Open up the import wizard and your failed episodes on the Golden Girls will appear in yellow. Select just one episode via checkbox and manually correct the entry on the next step to where you make sure "Golden Girls" shows up as series name, and that episode title is the right one. Then see if this episode is properly matched up to the S/E one.

If that fails, then your best bet might be to mass-rename all your recorded files via a 3rd party tool such as "The Renamer" as per: http://www.therenamer.com/

Or sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and hit the tvdb.com

http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=71292&lid=7

Especially when there is more than one TV series of that name, always add the first year of broadcasting to the name ie (2010)

Now it's working. I had a mistake in the path to "episodenscanner" in the "TV EPG Import ++" plugin.
