Yep, looks like dash is causing a problem. FileBot matches word tokens so all punctuation is lost. "Diners Drive-Ins and Dives" and "Diners Driveins and Dives" works but "Diners Drive ins and Dives" doesn't.

For some cases I need to strip the dash, for some cases like this it seems I mustn't. Of course I could find a way to work around this but really it's a these kinda 1-word/2-word things that mess up the TheTVDB search algorithm all the time. Their next API update should fix these kinda these problems as far as I know.

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32>filebot -rename M:/TVComplete --output \\ds212/TV --format "{n}/Season {s}/{n} {sxe} {t}" -non-strict --db TheTVDB 
Rename episodes using [TheTVDB]
Auto-detected query: [CSI New York, flashpoint]
Fetching episode data for [Flashpoint]
[MOVE] Rename [M:\TVComplete\CSI.New.York.S09E01.HDTV.x264-LOL.mp4] to [\\ds212\TV\Flashpoint\Season 3\Flashpoint 3x01 Unconditional Love.mp4]
Skipped [M:\TVComplete\flashpoint.s01e01.dvdrip.xvid-haggis.avi] because [\\ds212\TV\Flashpoint\Season 1\Flashpoint 1x01 Scorpio.avi] already exists
Processed 2 files

TheTVDB only recognizes "CSI: NY". The search for "CSI New York" yields no results and is thus considered and invalid match. Same old problem with tvrage/thetvdb search being shitty... don't have time to build my own search database though.
