Do you want all episode numbers in the filename ?
e.g. 1x02-03-04
or
keep it like it is now and only show from-to e.g. 1x02-04
I actually implemented {kodi} with SxE style numbers (great mind think alike :P) instead of S00E00 style numbers to differentiate it more from the {plex} binding. In accordance the Kodi docs, the corresponding multi-episode formatting will be 1x02x03x04.

Try with a few individual files, and not all your files at once, for testing. Maybe you can narrow down why it doesn't work for you.


:idea: Press F5 twice to print FileBot version information.

:idea: Press F7 to copy file / episode match model debug information.

Ok, will do, thanks rednoah. So I recreated the problem with Kodi.

Kodi 17.6
filebot 4.8.4

TEST: 1x22x23x24 e.g.

I tested it only with 5 episodes, names like this:

Media Companion realizes it as multi:

Kodi shows following:

Season -1
No episodes shown (pictures will follow if uploaded.

Filebot does this with the files:

https://ibb.co/naOwaL

It works with them. If I take eisodes from Season 02 or Season 04 it doesnt work with filebot. Somehow there is a connection with numbers and series (with some series it works).

New test, sytem Kodi and filebot are the same

Filenamestyle: S01E01-S01E02-S01E03

kodi shows:

shows all episodes correctly, "Season 01" and all Episodes (78 Episodes of whole season).


I don't know guys, the rule of Kodi doesnt work. I need to name it S01E01-S01E02... The 1x01x02x03 or the 01xE01xE02... doesnt work. Any other of the wiki of kodi doesnt work neither. Only the S01E01-S01E02...

The problem with filebot not recognizing multi is only starting at Season 02 of any series and it is connected to special numbers. as shown in the pictures above on page one of this topic... Maybe one day will figure out why it is like that, but the problem is, I cant change any format. The format which works with every episode on filebot is: 01x02-03-04... But Kodi will not regognize it as correct format. So I need to stick with the format which Kodi recognized at the end and that means I need to rename my files (if multi episodes) "manually" with total commander tool.

Check if your filenames is correct if you use thetvdb:
there is NO "Season 1" BUT it's ="Season 1940"
https://www.thetvdb.com/series/tom-and-jerry

1x01x02x03 = wrong
1940x01x02x03 = OK

"Season 1" = OK

rednoah wrote: 17 Nov 2018, 17:54 I actually implemented {kodi} with SxE style numbers (great mind think alike :P) instead of S00E00 style numbers to differentiate it more from the {plex} binding. In accordance the Kodi docs, the corresponding multi-episode formatting will be 1x02x03x04.
Is it possible extract only the {SxE} part from {kodi} or {plex} ?
(other then using e.g. replaceAll or match to just remove all other stuff)

Hi Kim,

show ID from nfo: <showid>77973</showid>

= https://www.thetvdb.com/series/tom-and-jerry-kids-show

you are confusing it with: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/tom-and-jerry

The ID and the show and the episodes are correct, it is correctly tagged in media companion.

I also tried with following shows:

garfield and friends
Rugrats
Hey Arnold

and many more shows. The only format which works is S01E01-S01E02...

I cant replicate your problem...
When Kodi is not showing something it's properly because more then 1 file has same info
e.g. season and episode in nfo

Give only 1 filename that Filebot has a problem with ?

It is ok Kim. No need to replicate it. As said, I have my workaround.

All I wanted is, to show you guys that the format is not correct for every Kodi station. If you read my post before and compare both nfo files you will see, that the process from both times where exactly the same. The only difference was the naming format 1x01x02x03 VS S01E01-S01E02-S01E03. One time Kodi has a problem with it, one time (with S01E01...) not.

The series and seasons Filebot has a problem with are all with format S01E01-S01E02... starting from Season 2 (e.g. Garfield and Friends) as seen in screenshots on first page of this topic.

But red already said he doesnt have those problems, so it must be something with my system especially or with my filebot version.

I'm curious, why do you want to use SxE-SxE-SxE vs s00e00-e00 as the format?
