This isn't really Mythical but I know you've done a lot of other stuff. Say someone downloads 3 seasons of a show and they need to bulk rename them.
Original format might be something like "Dr.Who.Return.of.the.Daleks(XVID).MKV". I know Mythical can do it if I manually parse the series and episode name on the command line but is there a method whereby we can scan a directory and attempt a tvdb match then rename the file with SxxExx so that XBMC can properly import them? I guess if the filenames are consistent in that the episode name always starts at a specific position it might be possible to create a c script to parse out the Series and Episode names then run Mythical in non DB file mode. I used to use a program called TheRenamer on Windows but did'nt see a similar program for Linux.

^^ mythicalLibrarian categorizes recorded content only. There is another renamer somewhere in this Supplemental Tools forum which specializes in renaming downloaded files. I'm trying to keep everything legal and basically like a "super tivo". I do not want to get wrapped up in RIAA issues.

I do this because I'm in a fringe (not to be confused with Fringe on Fox) area and NBC doesn't alway receive well. The analog version was found in tvdb and moved to the series folder but the HD copy was not and was moved to /showings/Heroes S0E0. As both filenames are basically the same it seemed odd.If the information was there, then you should be able to
One good thing I found out about XBMC. If you have multiple folders for the same show on different drives it logically combines them. If you have a folders with 2 seasons mixed together and the same series in another folder with Season 3 and Season 4 folders XBMC combines them properly. This means that your new version will not impact previous installations where all seasons were placed into one folder.

I'm back. mythicalLibrarian has been working great for me lately, with one minor exception: it can't seem to get episode information for Top Gear (recorded off of BBC America.) It looks like the lookup gets the correct TVDB and Zap2It series info, but then can't get the episode information, even tho thetvdb.org has the episode info listed.
Here's the most recent example, recorded yesterday. From my --doover output:

Here's the entry on thetvdb.org that mythicalLibrarian couldn't parse: http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesid=74608&seasonid=122131&id=1424561&lid=7

Any ideas? Thanks!

I think I should add a --FlushDatabase option to force mythicalLibrarian to rebuild all TVDB entries and have that executed as a last step on --update. This would help with mythicalLibrarian database upgrades.

Those folders, with the exception of daily report and mythicalSetup are the database folders. I will make an easy button for it.
- outleradam - 2010-04-29 05:03
As of SVN 369 updater is working properly.
Also, --doMaintenance will delete all MythicalLibrarian created database folders as well as flush the disconnected folder and file cache. I'm going to call that a day!
- GregoryK - 2010-04-29 05:13
Adam:
Updated to 369, ran --doMaintenance, then --doover. Still no recognition of Top Gear.
Again, this is a tiny tiny issue, so don't sweat it. Thanks for the great script!

SVN 372 added a new database processor for Japaneese programming. run sudo mythicalLibrarian --update and select no to do you have one of the following guide data types.
This will bypass all attempts to lookup on thetvdb.com

Still getting endless loop in setup with 10.04. It said parsing mythicalLibrarian then came back to the install "Stable - Latest SVN".
Other issue. When attempting --undo running as mythtv(sudo su mythtv) it prompts for password. Is there a mythtv user password? I tried blank, my user password and the mysql password. Just running undo without sudo pops up a "must run using sudo" message. I don't seem to remember entering a mythtv password anywhere when I installed 10.04 last week.
I've got mythical running fine using --scan (both myself and mythtv user) but can't seem to get the userjob to run which is not mythical's problem. I've run mythicalDiagnostics both as my user name and mythtv and they both passed except for the messaging which is turned off in setup. I see a few lines in the backend log about not being able to access the jobqueue or invalid jobqueue so I have to clean those up first.
