I am not aware of any auto renaming program. They would not help much b.c the name styles will very from file to file. What you are going to want is the ability to rename files in batch using this: http://sites.google.com/site/lammersoft/lammer-context-menu

They left with the 10bit support lol jk

But right now we are mostly crying about 10bit support for the next xbmc version.

I will try to post up my settings when I get a chance.

Hey Guys,

is there a possibility that the scraper add on every show the genre "Anime"? I dont need the other genre catogries like "seinen", "superpower", etc. i only need "Anime"

with kind regards

For anime fansubs what you're looking for is an aniDB client. There are several to choose from, I use WebAOM, personally. They identify the files based on a hash function, so as long you haven't altered the contents of the file (i.e. re-encoded/remuxed) and the file is in the aniDB database, it will know what file it is, what show it's from, what episode, which fansub group, etc. From there it's fairly simple to set up rules to move and rename based on that.

For example, in WebAOM, I have the rules:

Code:

#RENAME

DO SET '%ann S01E%enr %epn '

IF G(!unknown) DO ADD '[%grp] '

DO ADD '(%crc)'

#MOVE

DO SET 'P:\Videos\Anime\%ann'

Should be fairly self-explanatory. I end up with files like

Code:

P:\Videos\Anime\Mawaru Penguin Drum\Mawaru Penguin Drum S01E01 Ringing the Bell of Destiny [gg] (31f28b05).mkv

No, scraper doesn't support such behaviour, but you can modify it by yourself. Maybe I'll be able to help you, but tell me why do you need it? Smile

when it comes to XMBC, i'am a very beginner. I want to use the "Alaska" Theme. The Theme supports "custom home buttons".

I want the following "Home Buttons"
- Movies
- TV-Shows
- Anime

To create a "custom home button" in alaska, i must create a favorite. It fails when i make a favorite of my whole "anime" dir, but with genres it works.

So my Problem for the moment is, that my animes dont have a constant genre like "anime" Smile

with kind regards

From my point of view Smart playlists (check XBMC wiki if you don't know) are better alternative for it, you can set rules for example like "Path contains Anime" etc. And iirc you can assist Smart playlist to home button in Alaska revisited.
Anyway I use different profile (again check wiki Wink

) for Anime, because then it doesn't mix together with regular tv shows (actors, years, genres, etc). I managed to integrate profile switching to my skin, so it work seamlessly, but you will need to switch them manually (or modify your skin too Smile

).

If you still want to modify scraper then look for file addons/metadata.anidb.net/anidb.xml in your XBMC working directory and it this file:

1/ delete lines 232-407. It start and end with following

Code:

<!-- Only genres with defined weight are overtaken -->

      <RegExp input="$$1" output="\1" dest="5">

        <expression clear="yes" noclean="1">(?i)&lt;categories&gt;(.*?)&lt;/categories&gt;</expression>

      </RegExp>

...

      <RegExp input="$INFO[GenreCount]-$$6" output="\1" dest="8+">

        <expression noclean="1">(?i)1-(&lt;genre&gt;[^&lt;]+&lt;/genre&gt;)</expression>

      </RegExp>

2/ instead of these deleted lines put there

Code:

<RegExp input="" output="&lt;genre&gt;Anime&lt;/genre&gt;" dest="8+">

        <expression/>

      </RegExp>
