Episode matching broken

Post by Biki »

Hi,

apologies if this has been posted elsewhere already.
I've just updated to 3.4 because I had some problems in 3.3 with some shows that got matched incorrectly, like 90210. I thought 3.4 would work better (it already worked in 90% of the cases).

Now, this happened:

Almost all of the episodes (with one exception) got moved to the HIMYM folder wrongly. Maybe the ddlsource.com is the problem?

Oh and I don't suppose there is a way of undoing these changes now? :D

Thanks for your time,
Biki

Great, thank you, that will come in handy. :)
Do you have any idea what caused the error to avoid it in the future?

Just bad luck with crappy input data and non-strict matching:

Code: Select all

-non-strict
The amc script has some extra logic to deal with messy input.

EDIT: Also added things to the blacklist so at least this specific case can't happen in the future => http://filebot.sourceforge.net/forums/v ... ?f=3&t=359

Conclusion:
You're renaming everything at once with a simple -rename call. Problem is HIMYM is less messed up than other shows. And since it already a presumably good series match in it's first round it won't go in-depth and thus doesn't know about the other shows that are kinda missed in the first round due to the ddlvalley/ddlsource prefix (not being blacklisted at the time). Also -rename cannot process movies and tvshows at the same time.

If you were to call -rename on each individual file it'd work. The amc script is kinda doing that.
