Series Mismatch: The Day of the Jackal

Post by brijazz »

I'm getting a mismatch on episodes of 'The Day of the Jackal'. Episodes are named as:

Code: Select all

The.Day.of.the.Jackal.S01E07.Episode.7.2160p.PCOK.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.DV.H.265-FLUX.mkv
Filebot is matching them with a series called 'Kidnapping Day'. Any idea why?

:?: Does FileBot not prompt you to select a series?

Here's what I get:

I should have mentioned that I use the CLI exclusively, running a command automatically when a new file is detected. Here's the command I'm using:

Code: Select all

filebot -rename "$1" --db TheMovieDB::TV -non-strict -non-strict --log-file ~/Documents/filebot.log --format "{~plex} [{vf}{any{hdr}; ' - '}{ 'Dolby Vision / SMPTE ST 2086' in video.HDR_Format ? 'Dolby Vision + HDR' : hdr }]" -exec touch {folder} {folder.dir}
Log shows:

Code: Select all

You can use the --q option to force a specific series:

Shell: Select all

--q "The Day of the Jackal"
See Q: How do I fix misidentified files? for details and alternatives.



:idea: I see a notable difference in the log between different shows though, as if The Day of the Jackal exists as a series but doesn't have any episodes, which would then explain why a different series / episode got the match:

Code: Select all

Fetching episode data for [The Day of the Jackal]
Fetching episode data for [The Day of the Triffids]
└─ 2 episodes
Fetching episode data for [The Kidnapping Day]
└─ 12 episodes
