Should be able to split episodes without renumbering

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Find a standard multi-part episode that has been broken into separate pieces 
(but not numbered as such by thetvdb). There will be no way for tvrename to 
locate, move, and rename all the parts.
2. Splitting the episode within tvrename can help to resolve this, but it will 
offset the numbering of future episodes and probably prevent them from matching 
up correctly.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

TV rename should be able to identify all of my episode files. The best approach 
to this would be to have two variations of the Split rule (under Season Rules). 
One with renumbering and one without.

Ideally the program should support a logical naming scheme for this type of 
occurrence. The one I have seen online is S01E25a, S01E25b, etc. In this way 
the names remain distinct and the episode parts can still be identified without 
relying on the episode title.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

2.2.0b7 - Windows 7 x64

For my understanding - is this thread targetting this scenario:

This is at least not one that TV Rename handles. In the import process, the first one (Part 1) was imported, and the other one deleted. Please let me know if I should post a separate request or if it's just another example of the issue covered by this thread.
