    Hi.
    Thanks for new version.
    But I found an issue that is introduced with the new version. If there is a series episode with a 3 digit episodes number tMM identifies it wrong. I just had episode 545 of season 1 of the show "Railway Romance". The file was named "s01e545 - Steamtown USA.mkv" (Steamtown USA is the titile of the episode) but is identified as two episodes, S05E45 and S05E54... As there is no season 5 on TVDB tMM did not find anything. This was working properly in previous versions.

    yes, we've changed our regular expression to cover more different variants of episode file naming. You just found one more file name which does not work :( This is a real pain :(
    We'll tweak our regex once more :D

    Hi.
    How should I name the episode to be recognised correctly? It's not important to me as there are not too much seasons with more than 100 episodes in.... This single file every now and then is not too much work. But I need metadata for those files...

    Hi.
    Sorry but new version 2.6.1 is working worse than 2.6. Every number contained in the name will be treaten as season or episodes number. E.G. x264 leads to Season2 episode 64, 720p leads to S7 e20, and so on. Imagine a filename like this (very common one):

    The.Big.Bang.Theory.S07E15.Eisenbahnromantik.German.DD51.Dubbed.DL.1080p.BD.x264-TVS.mkv

    This is added as s7 e15, s0 e51, s5 e1, s10 e80, s1 e8, s0 e8, and s2 e64.... So I need to rename nearly every single file before I can add it to tMM. With 2.55 I only needed to rename files with naming scheme like 208 for s2 e8... If I could find the older version 2.55 somewhere I would change back to it.

    And for 3 digit episodes numbers (S01E481) not even manual editing in front end is working. It would be scrapped correctly after editing but the renaming feature still did not work on this.

    well, there was no change in the episode detector between 2.6 and 2.6.1 (we did not have enough time to finish it).
    good news: our tweaks for 2.6.2 work with your files (along with all other files I got in different bug reports).

    you may have only a few days patience until I can finish 2.6.2

    Hi Manuel

    Big Thanks for your effort with tMM. I have some questions/wishes for one of the upcoming releases and i hope it will be possible to realize.

    1. Autodetection and filtering of 3D Movies, maybe by filename (3D, 3DSBS, 3DTAB, ...)!
    2. Exclude files from database (Context menu). Example: I've some Bonus discs in movie folder (Blu-Ray ISO) Every time i refresh my database, i have to delete these discs again)
    3. Grabbing TV-Shows, stored on more then only one drive. Example: Homeland Season1 stored on Drive D, Homeland Season 2 stored on Drive E, Homeland Season 3 stored on Drive F.....

    Thanks in advance
    Helios
