Episode name not coming across on TV Sorting

Post by dvdapex »

Version: 0.4.6
OS: XP Embedded
Install-type: Windows installer
Skin (if applicable): default
Firewall Software: Ex: None
Are you using IPV6? no
Is the issue reproducible? yes

I have the following pattern for my TV Sorting:
%sn/Season %0s/S%0sE%0e - %en.%ext

It should result in the following setup:
d:\downloads\Show Name/Season 01/S01E05 - Episode Name.avi

What I get is (for example)
d:\downloads\Psych\Season 03\S01E16.avi

So, the episode name gets stripped out (even though it's part of the NZB file).

What's "interesting" to me is the the email I get indicating that the download is complete, it'll say (again, just an example): New TV Show SABNZB downloaded Showname.S01E16.I.See.Dude.People.XVID.Rippy

Any suggestions?

Due to the crap that gets added to the end of a lot of nzb file names, we only support episode name detection when the nzb is in a certain format.
The episode name needs to be seperated from the episode number by either " - " or "_-_" for example:@

Code: Select all

Show Name - 1x01 - Episode Name
Show Name_-_1x01_-_Episode Name
ShowName.S01E01 - Episode Name
ShowName.S01E01_-_Episode Name 
It is too hard to support any other way without picking up all the extra tags that get added to a release name.
See this wiki page for more information.
