If you wish help debugging problems please do the following:

Update to the very latest SVN version. This is the version i stick with and will be testing against.
Post a COMPLETE debug log to pastebin and link it here (make sure this log catches the update library procedure, look for lines containing "Failed to Enumerate"). If you don't upload this log I cannot help and wont even bother. Sorry but time is to short to help those that wont help themselves Smile

You must have missed this bit

I found myself having a hard time coding the right syntacs for my tv series. Hope some1 can help me out with my code!

I use the following naming syntact:

Disk/Folder/TVshow/Season/Episode
L:/Series/House/Season 01/House - Season 01 - Episode 01 - Pilot.mkv

I use this naming syntact for ALL my tv shows (arround 6 TB of shows) so if some1 could help me get a nice code for in xbmc so Tvshow matching will work for me to i'll be verry thankfull!

It keeps a database with original air date and all other data which myth pulls from zap2it. Maybe this should be in another thread, I'm burning this issue at 4 ends here. Open source renaming app BTVRename using tvrage which I am admin on sourceforge, on the btv forums, btv APIs, and XBMC scraper recognition. There has to be a way to integrate btv library into xbmc.

I'm running BeyondTV as well, and it saves all recorded TV shows in a format that doesn't appear to be supported by XBMC...

Is it possible for the regexp to parse shows that are all stored in a single directory in the following format:

American Dad-(1600 Candles)-2008-10-05-0.wmv
American Dad-(A.T. the Abusive Terrestrial)-2008-09-21-0.wmv

Like the previous guy said, the date is just the recording date...

Thanks for these regexs.

I have several shows that are in the form Show Name/Season #/Episode ##.avi/mkv.

e.g. Mad Men/Season 1/Episode 01.avi
Spaced/Season 1/Episode 01.avi

Have you thought about including that format? Or am I the only one with files like that?

I would have thought that should work.

Post a full debug log capturing it missing that filename type to pastebin and i will look at it

Decided to start from scratch and post a bit more: here is my advancedsettings.xml

Quote:<advancedsettings>


<tvshowmatching append="no">
<regexp>season([0-9]+)e([0-9]+)([^\//]*)[\//]VIDEO_TS.IFO</regexp>
</tvshowmatching>

</advancedsettings>

I have my tv shows folder being scanned, inside is this format (example):

Battlestar Galactica/season1e1e2e3e4/VIDEO_TS.IFO (plus all the other VOB's and such)

these are backed up via dvd shrink so they are not by episode, instead by disc, I've read in the wiki's and elsewhere that it's relatively easy to get this to work but so far I've had no luck, any advice would be appreciated Smile

Here is the debug log: http://pastebin.com/f57d6e804

It says could not enumerate file in front of all the filenames around line 550. It does appear to get the show name correct though.

Thanks again.
