Killervette 5 Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Maybe it's just me, but I tried the new live TV recording feature. It works but the file name doesn't have a - or anything to separate the show season and title. Is there somewhere to modify this so my episodes are recognized?
Luke 42077 Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Sure they do have a pattern. But the pattern is only as good as the data that is available.
Killervette 5 Posted August 26, 2015 Author Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Sure they do have a pattern. But the pattern is only as good as the data that is available. So the naming is based off the schedules direct listing? It should at least been able to put a hyphen after the title of the show, right? Edited August 26, 2015 by Killervette
Luke 42077 Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 It uses {show} S01E01 {title}. if there are no numbers then yes we should probably add a hyphen
Killervette 5 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Posted August 28, 2015 It uses {show} S01E01 {title}. if there are no numbers then yes we should probably add a hyphen Just tested another one. It ended up naming it Burn Notice S04E11 Blind Spot. No hyphens so it wasn't tagged right.
Luke 42077 Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 that's a supported convention by quite a few apps. there's' nothing at all wrong with that. i meant dash when the episode numbers are not known

I will give it a try tomorrow. Thanks
Luke 42077 Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 i don' see why not but i haven't heard much testing feedback on the auto-organize recording feature
Killervette 5 Posted August 29, 2015 Author Posted August 29, 2015 i don' see why not but i haven't heard much testing feedback on the auto-organize recording feature didnt seem to work. I tried recording fixer upper. i do not have any current tv folders with that tv show. The auto organize failed and gave the error "Unable to find series in library matching name fixer upper". so does that mean any new show i record i have to first create a series folder? Can emby auto create the folder?
Luke 42077 Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 it could, but then when it creates the wrong series i'm going to have to deal with users reporting issues about that. so that's why it only adds to existing series.

I see what you mean. Maybe an option to move failed files to a new location. Or a prompt in EMBY that says new series found and have the user confirm it matches the correct series before adding. I assume it will be a problem when I or my wife choose a TV show we never watch or a special episode to record. Just thinking out loud.
