Filebot can't seem to match the show '1883' and fails not trying to search any series on TVDB. Is there a way to fix this or force lookup?
Code: Select all
Input: /downloads/completed/tv/1883.S01.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb/1883.S01E01.1883.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb.mkv

You can use the GUI to process files where automation doesn't work. You can use
-rename --db TheTVDB --q 396390 if you prefer to use the CLI.

I still don't understand - I'm having the same issue and I don't use any automation - I ONLY use the GUI to process files.
While processing this exact same show (1883) I get a failure to properly identify it no matter which lookup source I choose. It will attempt to rename the files to something else, if it's a soft match, but nothing is correct so far.
A good solution for this might be to just allow me to search via the IMDB ID (13991232) - this way if it's not pulling the correct information maybe it could use a push from that source?

You can search by ID. But you'll have to use the ID for your selected database, i.e.
TheTVDB ID or
TheMovieDB/TV ID.
