Ive recently switched over from Mediaportal where ive always used the naming format as follows to scrape my TV series episodes…
TV Series
————– Series
———————– Season number
——————————————- number – Episode Name.ext
As above, the episode files themselves are usually two digit numbers followed by a hyphen and then the episode name (eg: 01 – Winter is Coming.mkv). This format doesnt seem to be in the list of recognised strings in the kodi scraping xml as I cant download any information no matter which gui settings i change (DVD/Absolute ordering etc).
I have around 40 box sets with 500+ episode files, so changing every episode to a recognised naming format (s01e01 – name.ext) isnt really an option for me. Can anyone give me any pointers as to whether i can add/edit string formats somewhere in kodi, or am i going to have to go the advancedsettings.xml route that the wiki suggests?
Thanks in advance for any help
