Is there a way to not strip out apostrophes from title names?

Open beechfuzz opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

I've had several movies where the apostrophe was removed which resulted in Emby not being able to identify the movie. Two that occurred recently are The World's End and Pee-Wee's Big Adventure; both files were renamed from The.Worlds.End.2013.1080p and Pee-Wees.Big.Adventure.1985.1080p to The Worlds End (2013) and Pee-Wees Big Adventure (1985), respectively. As a result, Emby couldn't automatically identify those titles. I had to manually add the apostrophes into the title names before Emby could identify them.

Admittedly, Emby should be smart enough to identify the movies even though they're only missing an apostrophe from the file names. But, I like my filenames to be wholly representative of the actual Title name, so I like the apostrophes in the file names.

Is there any way to give us this option?

Edit: It appears to be hit or miss as to whether or not the apostrophes are included in the new file name. VideoSort just renamed a file from Schindlers List 1993 to Schindler's List (1993) -- it actually added the apostrophe. Maybe it depends on the database being checked?
