King & Maxwell; AMC script incorrect/Manual Filebot correct
Posted: 27 Jun 2013, 02:56
First, let me say thank you so much for developing and maintaining this amazing program. I know its the reason my automated media center is actually an automated and mostly a hands-off experience.
I've been using the AMC script and it works beautifully - I've only encountered 2 shows where it didn't work correctly, because of the "&" in their title (Franklin & Bash, and King & Maxwell). The reason being is that all the file names I'd download would be along the lines of Franklin.And.Bash and the script wouldn't know that it should be looking for & instead of and. A simple replace function later and my incoming files are named "Franklin & Bash.yadayada" and now filebot correctly identifies the show.
However, this doesn't work with King & Maxwell. It seems that no matter how I rename the file, the AMC script always comes back to it being just a show called King. When I open up filebot and manually drop the filename into it and select TheTVDB a pop-up appears which lists various "king" related shows with King (the one the AMC script always picks) as the first option. BUT if I hit ignore on that little pop-up, the suggested re-name that Filebot gives me is for the show King & Maxwell with the correct episode information.
So what exactly am I doing when I hit the "ignore" option on the list of shows that pop up when I manually drop that file name into filebot? Is there a way to replicate that or otherwise come up with the correct match for this show using the AMC script? I've spent a few hours trying different ways that I could think of based on searching these forums but I've had no success. In the end, having one show that this doesn't work for is a fairly small concern, as the script has does everything I've asked of it for every other show and movie I've acquired but I have a bit of OCD about how everything looks so I figured it can't hurt to ask.
