Tv recordings format

[nissse]

Hello hello

I have completely reinstalled my sage server and only installed BMT

The trouble i'm having is that my recorded tv shows is in this format :

CSI-Del7ssong6-61628-0.ts

programname - epesode season - ? - ?.ts

Is there any way to configure BMT to read these files ?

Many thanks

nisse, all filenames are scraped by bmt using a set of scrapers in the SAGE_HOME/STVs/Phoenix/scrapers/xbmc/tvfilenames/ directory.

These scrapers basically contain "functions" that parse different parts of the filename for information, that bmt uses for lookups. The current Sage Airing scraper will not match on your sage recordings, so you'll need a new scraper.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- 
   TV Filename Scraper.  Used to Scrape Show Name, Season and Episode from a given file URI
   $$1 is always the complete file uri
-->
<scraper name="title-Del0ssong0" content="filename" thumb="thumb.png">
	<!-- 	input: 		$1=complete file uri -->
	<!-- 	returns: 	show name -->
	<GetShowName dest="3">
		<RegExp input="$$1" output="\1" dest="3">
		                
			<expression>.*[/\\](.*)-Del([0-9]{1,2})ssong{1,2}([[0-9]]+)</expression>
		</RegExp>
	</GetShowName>

	<!-- 	input: 		$1=complete file uri -->
	<!-- 	returns: 	Season #-->
	<GetSeason dest="3">
		<RegExp input="$$1" output="\2" dest="3">
			<expression>.*[/\\](.*)-Del([0-9]{1,2})ssong{1,2}([[0-9]]+)</expression>
		</RegExp>
	</GetSeason>

	<!-- 	input: 		$1=complete file uri -->
	<!-- 	returns: 	Episode #-->
	<GetEpisode dest="3">
		<RegExp input="$$1" output="\3" dest="3">
			<expression>.*[/\\](.*)-Del([0-9]{1,2})ssong{1,2}([[0-9]]+)</expression>
		</RegExp>
	</GetEpisode>
</scraper>

If you save this as as scraper in the tvfilenames area, then it might work. If you know regular expressions, then maybe this makes sense to you.

Thank you for your reply

Did i do this right ?

I created a file named "scraper.xml" in "C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\STVs\Phoenix\scrapers\xbmc\tvfilenames"

I pasted the code from your post and restarted sagetv service.

Everyting looks thesame. Did i miss anything ?

Keep in mind that I just edited that on the fly, but yeah, that looks right. You have my email, so feel free to do a couple of scans and then send me the logs. Also, send me some complete filenames as well.

I did notice the Del#ssong# in your recordings the last time, but I wasn't sure what that was.

Also, CSI is notoriously bad to match on because there are so many csi variants. We may need to add a MediaTitle entry to map CSI to the correct tvdb entry.

If I get a chance tonight, I can try to test the scraper that I gave to see if it actually does work. (I'm at work, so I can't really test these things until I get home)

Thank you for trying Sean.

Because i cant get seson and episode to work correctly is there a way to only get fanart ?
If not can i somehow fake a season and episode nr like s:1 e:1 so fan art is downloaded. (I have "Preserve Original Metadata for Recordings" marked anyway)

The issue that I'm seeing with your setup, is that even if I manually specify the season and episode (or it parses it from the filename, which was working with the new scraper), it appears to forget it when being passed to the search tool. i can't explain that.

Ok thats strange

The only way i can get it to work is if i manualy add a seson and episode nr
(see attached pic)

I only change seson and episode from 0 to 1
then it works.

To bad that it cant make this automaticly.

And that is the add part... if you click "discover" button then it will parse the filename and fill in those values. But it doesn't appear to use them, or it sends it down null, etc. I can't reproduce that behaviour in my setups, but I saw it clear as day in yours

[nissse]

You are right.
I will use BMT for movies only and hope my setup will work in future releses.
Thanks again Sean
