UPgraded to 5.1.6 and FB suddenly doesn't work

[ImaginaryTango]

I just upgraded, on macOS Sequoia 15.1.1, to Filebot 5.1.6. I just loaded in a season of Murdoch Mysteries and hit "Match," as I always do. Then I picked The TVDB, which I usually use. Then I get this:

The year is correct. The filename format is one I've always used. For example, "Murdoch_Mysteries-S17E01." It provides no episode titles or information after I click "Okay."

I left the series name and year there, used the same format as always, and suddenly it doesn't work.

Unfortunately, TheTVDB search does not yield any results for Murcodh Mysteries. Perhaps it's not a common misspelling or just too misspelled for the search engine.


You'll want to enter Murdoch Mysteries or Murdoch Mysteries 2008 or 81670 when FileBot asks you to enter the series name or series ID.


I recommend using the Episodes tool to explore the TheTVDB listing if you're having trouble with some set of files, to confirm the series name, series year, episode numbers, episode titles, etc. FileBot will work significantly less well if the names and numbers of the files you have don't match the names and numbers in the database.

Ah!

So frustrating. This is an issue I've had to deal with for all my life and I usually catch it on my own, but once in a while I miss it. It's a reading disability (no, not dyslexia). It's really easy for me to miss a misspelling like that. I had checked it over carefully but a 'c' and 'd' in those positions, with the tall 'h' made it very tough to catch and, clearly, I missed it.

Thanks - it's rare an issue like this slips by me, but every once in a while it does.

No worries. Mismatches or Unmatchables can happen for all kinds of reasons. That's when it's best to just copy & paste the numeric ID.
