could not find a part of the path...

Hey all,

First off, MC is a fantastic program and is a GODSEND in terms of managing my media however I hit a small (slightly irritating problem).

Whenever I try and get MC to scrape a particular folder, it throws up the error that it


'could not find part of the path to ......' where .... is the path to the folder I am trying to scrape.

My folder structure is standard:
Tv Shows
-TV SHOW 1
-Season 1
-Show S0xE0x

I have tried removing the spaces in the path (as that sometimes causes issues) but this hasn't worked.

If anyone has any ideas, that would be appreciated

update:


The folders causing issue are called:
Season 16
and Season 19

No idea why but one workaround I have discovered is to move the actual video files into a 'catchall' folder i have labelled season.

MC can then go and scrape through this and pull out the information based on the filename Showname.S0x.E0x

Not ideal as it is not very organised but a temporary solution. Anybody have any other ideas??

Perhaps it may be to do with your show name itself....although it shouldn't affect just those seasons...can you post the full path to say S19E01.avi

e.g.

c:\TV Shows\Doctor Who\Season 19\S19E01.avi

Cheers

Hey the path is:

/Volumes/BEN MEDIA/TV Shows/Simpsons, The/Season 19/S019E01

Just for something to try, have you tried to map that root folder "TV Shows" to a drive letter & see if mc can see it properly that way?

Again I can't see anything obviously different between using say Season 18 or Season 19....

Cheers

Have you tried naming the episode S19E01 instead of S019E01, the "0" is usually only added to seasons 1-9

Good pickup Steve....I didn't even notice that!

It could be a typo since its only a couple of seasons & not all from 10, but yeah you're right MC will not work with its default regex with S019 because that is 'S' & 3 digits ...
