Multi-Episode Naming Scheme

Post by MarFilot »

Can someone show me the expression that I should use to get episode like this:

Touched by an Angel - S09E21 - I Will Walk With You (1)
Touched by an Angel - S09E22 - I Will Walk With You (2)

I use the default scheme in Filebot, but the 1 and 2 at the end is missing in the application, while it's present on TVDB

This code works (I tested it in the GUI and properly appends the episode part number), but I'm sure rednoah has a more elegant solution:

Code: Select all

{n} - {s00e00} - {t} {' ('+episode.toString().match(/\([0-9]+\)$/)[1]+')'}
(thanks to @Crankrune for the episode part portion)

Note, we are discussing this issue on this topic:

or just:

Code: Select all

{n} - {s00e00} - {episode.title}

That's why we help each other out! Nobody can search for all the possible ways to do something when it comes to coding. I'm a horrible beginner, so point me in the right direction when you see it is needed!

Read through the forums like this one (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2) to see examples of formatting.

Code: Select all

{n} - {s00e00} - {t}
is simple, and will give you NAME - SEASON#EPISODE#X-Y - SHOW TITLE

So if your file is named "dragonball z 110-111", it becomes "Dragon Ball Z - S01E10-E11 - A New Friend & Terror on Arlia"

Binding {s00e00} and {sxe} support multi-episode data, but depending on the filename FileBot may or may not be able to interpret the filename as multi-episode in the first place (that's why you should post the filename so I can try this myself).
