Scanned shows look nothing like screenshots

Open dmanlfc opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

I have my TV Shows set out like so:

<Show Name>/<Season>/<Episode Name>

i.e. The Orville/Season 1/The Orville - 1x01 - Old Wounds.mkv

The Outcome looks nothing like the Screenshots. Are you doing any TVDB scraping yet? All Season1 folders regardless of the parent directory get bundled together Can you have a bit more logic when importing shows Artem?

Cheers

@dmanlfc try following: The Orville/The Orville - Season 1/The Orville - 1x01 - Old Wounds.mkv

Well that will work but I don't want to rename all my subdirectories. I use this file share for Plex - thought I'd give your new creation a try, Have you thought about using TheTVDB for TV Show scraping? https://api.thetvdb.com/swagger

I don't even have to have my files names tidy & Plex will scrape the content accordingly provided it can determine the Series & Episode number also.

No worries brother - see what you think. You can grab banner & poster art too.

Here is an API source: https://github.com/dbr/tvdb_api Example program using it: https://github.com/dbr/tvnamer

Java wrapper - easier to convert to Vala?

@dmanlfc check current master branch please - you should rescan your content: bildschirmfoto von 2018-01-16 19 19 53

Yes works better - now the shows can be easier to find & seperated from the rest. It would be better however if instead of having Banshee - Season 1,2,3 & 4 as separate thumbs on the main screen you'll only see Banshee - once clicked on it, you go into a separate sub view showing all the seasons you have with scraped Season poster thumbs & a scraped Banner. Once you click on the Season the Season playlist pops out from the right with only 'Episode' names not the full file name.
