OS: Windows 7 Enterprise x64
SABnzbd Version: 0.6.10
=====
I have Tv Sorting Enabled using the following pattern "%sn/%sn S%0sE%0e.%ext". I am having an issue with a few of my shows being named differently for the same show. This is causing issues because the same show (different episodes) will go into multiple directories. Here are some examples
Tv Show Name: Merlin (http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=83123)
Directory Names created
Merlin
Merlin (2008)
Merlin 2008
Tv Show Name: Up All Night (http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=248943&lid=7)
Directory Names created
Up All Night
Up All Night 2011
Tv Show Name: Sancturary (http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=80159&lid=7)
Directory Names created
Sanctuary
Sanctuary Us
Anyone else having the same issues? Is there any way to correct this?
Thank you in advance!

Re: Tv Show Renaming
If different posters use names like "Show 1x02 2011", but also "Show 2011 1x03",
there's no reason for SABnzbd to assume they're the same show.
The trigger is the 1x01 or S01E01 pattern, anything before that is the show name,
anything after that the episode name.

Re: Tv Show Renaming
That is kind of what I figured. Bummer. I am using Sabnzbd combined with Sickbeard. Many shows are being downloaded, but not picked up, by Sickbeard, since they are in different locations. Every week I have to move the files to the directory that Sickbeard is monitoring and rename them all. I was hoping that others might be having the same issue and a solution was discovered.shypike wrote:If different posters use names like "Show 1x02 2011", but also "Show 2011 1x03",

Re: Tv Show Renaming
Get them from a better indexing site ? there will be more uniform names that way
Re: Tv Show Renaming
Most of the shows I get from NZBMatrix which really is one of my favorites by far. I also get from NZBsRUs as well as Newzbin. It seems the poster really has control and not so much the indexing site.exussum wrote:Get them from a better indexing site ? there will be more uniform names that way
For some reason I was thinking that SabNZBd hit thetvdb.com to pull the show names. I guess I was incorrect. It must only be XBMC and Sickbeard that does that.
Re: Tv Show Renaming
It is the poster, But sticking to one site usually sticks to one format which helps makes sabs life easier.
Its just regex matching so yeah no db is hit

Re: Tv Show Renaming
Hmm. I will ditch 2 of the 3 indexing site and see if that helps. Good call. Thank you!exussum wrote:It is the poster, But sticking to one site usually sticks to one format which helps makes sabs life easier.
