TheMovieDB for episode mode

[rednoah]

TheTVDB is the best database because it offers multiple numbering schemes Airdate/Absolute/DVD so you can pick the one that matches your files. AniDB only supports Absolute numbers, and the others only Airdate. The "best" database is that one that has data that just so happens to match your files.

Database just provide raw data, all the matching magic happens within FileBot.

I'd like to also request using TheMovieDB for tv episodes for the simple fact that TheTVDB currently do not allow UFC and Wrestling episodes on their database while TheMovieDB does.

Please try the latest RC build and report back any issues you may find.

I haven't been able to get the themoviedb to work for tv. I'm using r3891 on Ubuntu with the command line, and I keep getting an error. This is the command I'm running:

Code: Select all

filebot -rename "WWE.NXT/WWE.NXT.2016.04.27.720p.WEB.h264-WD.mp4" --db themoviedb::tv -non-strict --format "{n} - {airdate} - {t}"

And I this is the output I get:

Code: Select all
