I'm sure this has been asked before but I'm having issues getting all my TV series to parse into the Library. i'm sure it has something to do with the naming of the series.
Most of the series are located on a SMB network share, and are named as follows
TVSeriesName\xx\yy - zzzzzzzzzzz.www
xx = season
yy=episode number
zzzzzzzzzz = episode name
www = file extension (mainly avi or vob)
A few are different and in the format
TVSeriesName\xx\SxxEyy - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.www
The first ones do not get found, the latter ones do.
looking through the wiki it looked as if the first format was not looked for as standard, so i added the following lines to c:\Documents And Settings\TVUser\ApplicationDate\XBMC\advancedsettins.xml
<tvshowmatching>
<regexp>[\._]([0-9]+)[\\/]([0-9]+[^\\/]*</regexp>
</tvshowmatching]
Due to the large number of TV shows and the need to be compatible with swisscentre changing the file layout is not practicable.
Interestingly it seems to have found a couple of the first type of file layout episodes, however this was before I put added to the advancedsettings.xml file
Any help would be appreciated - running V10.1
