TVDB lists Season 6 episode 1 of 'House MD' as 1 long episode

Heya,

I have the folloing problem. TVDB lists Season 6 episode 1 of 'House MD' as 1 long episode while my rip has split em up and thus that season has one more episode. What is the best way to rename those episodes so that everything will remain correctly tagged? I know that I'll have to deduct 1 per episode (EP3 becomes EP2 then and so forth) but I'm not sure how to use the duplicate function I read about. Chance for any help?

e.g. Format:

Code: Select all

{plex.derive{if (dc > 1) "(Part $di)"}}
(only work if renamed in same run)

e.g.
House MD S06E01 (1).mp4
House MD S06E01 (2).mp4

@rednoah
why does the [GUI -> Episodes] show
House 6x01 (1)
House 6x01 (2)
when website AND

Code: Select all

FileBot -list --db thetvdb --q "House MD"
show only 1x House 6x01

So how does this work then? Atm both parts are called

House, M.D. S06E01 Broken (Part 1)
House, M.D. S06E01 Broken (Part 2)

When I put them in Filebot with your code it still identifies part 2 as S06E02.

Works for me, in Airdate Order. Notably, if I use DVD Order, then 6x02 is just missing. Maybe the data is in flux.


:idea: The GUI and CLI will give you the same results, because they use the same code, but all bets are off if things change over time, though caching should generally ensure that you get the same results if you try the same thing multiple times in a row.

btw: new logo's

It works for me...
You can try themoviedb:

I'm having trouble with this exact same episode. TheTVDB's DVD order correctly lists 22 episodes for this season, while the aired order lists only 21. I'm not sure why FileBot is unable to correctly match these episodes when using DVD order? :? Is the correct way to change to DVD order from this menu:

Otherwise kim's fix of matching against the themoviedb works perfectly for this episode/season. :D

Due to API limitations, FileBot can't see episodes that aren't part of the primary episode order.
