Auto organize and chars not allowed in file names


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am recording a series called "Airport 24/7: Miami". This is the title used by both thetvdb and my TV provider.

 

The colon ":" and slash "/" are both illegal file name characters in Windows so they get replaced by hyphens when WMC saves the file and it gets the name

 

"Airport 24-7 - Miami SxEy EpisodeTitle.wtv"

 

Which causes auto organize to fail to find a match.

 

Can we have auto organize apply a bit of "fuzzy logic" so it understands this?

Maybe mb3 chould take out all special characters from the show name as is in mb3/tvdb and all special characters from the filename in autoorganise folder, for the purposes of looking for show name match between mb3 and the filename?
