I must be doing something wrong with my TV shows

I scan for new episodes and it says working on blah blah but it doesn't scrape anything. This is the last part of the log:

Working on episode: E:\TV Shows\Modern Family\Season 1\Modern Family - Season 1 - Episode 01.nfo

Working on episode: E:\TV Shows\Modern Family\Season 1\Modern Family - Season 1 - Episode 02.nfo

Working on episode: E:\TV Shows\Modern Family\Season 1\Modern Family - Season 1 - Episode 03.nfo

Working on episode: E:\TV Shows\Modern Family\Season 1\Modern Family - Season 1 - Episode 04.nfo

Working on episode: E:\TV Shows\Modern Family\Season 1\Modern Family - Season 1 - Episode 05.nfo

It says that on all of the episodes it finds that it should be scraping but nothing happens. I don't get any NFO's. Am I missing something?

MC & XBMC won't recognise the Season & Episode as you have in your episode name.

It needs to be like at the very least...

S01E01.avi
1x01.avi

Do a search & you should find the full list of accepted formats....

You can add other details to the episode name, but these will be ignored, they are there for your own purposes...

So you could name the first episode

Modern Family.S01E01.avi


However, if you want to have your Season# as a folder, and the episode name with just the episode number, you will need to add a different regex...

Have a look here...

I have a regex in there and it works fine with the test and it works fine in XBMC. It seems to know that it needs to scrape the shows but it doesn't do anything. The same regex worked in the old version.

J_K_M_A_N

Can you post your regex? Billy may need it to confirm MC is operating as intended.

Yes, post the regex and I will check it out for the next build.

I have tried two different ones. This one:

Season ([0-9]+) - Episode ([0-9]+)

and

Season ([0-9]+) - Episode ([0-9]+)[^\\/]*

The second one is what I have in XBMC. All my TV shows are on one drive in the following format:

E:\Ghost Whisperer\Season 1\Ghost Whisperer - Season 1 - Episode 01.avi

I know it is dumb but that is what I started with and I don't want to change now. It did work in version 2.xxx (whatever one worked last).

J_K_M_A_N

MC converts the path to lower case to clean the path of certain strings such as x264.

This has been fixed for the next build, but in the meantime use one of the regex's below

season ([0-9]+) - episode ([0-9]+)

will work although you will want to change it back after the next build,

or use

[Ss]eason ([0-9]+) - [Ee]pisode ([0-9]+)

It will work now, and after the next build.
