Help with tvshowmatching in advancedsettings.xml
#1
Hi everyone,

I'm trying to add a new TV Show pattern for XBMC to recognize but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I added the file advancedsettings.xml in the correct place (I checked the logs the file and the content is being loaded) and added this:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<advancedsettings>
    <tvshowmatching action="prepend">
        <regexp>Season ([0-9]+) Episode ([0-9]+)([^\\/]*)$</regexp>
    </tvshowmatching>
</advancedsettings>

I'm trying to match a show with this format "<tv show>\<season ##>\<tvshow> Season ## Episode ## - <tvshow episode name>.ext

The tvshowmatching expression i'm using is supposed to recognize anything that has Season ## Episode ## in the name but for some reason it's not working. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Check your Debug Log while refreshing the show in question.

It'll tell you whether it's hitting any regexps, and the Debug Log will also tell you if your advancedsettings is being read to begin with.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

Debug Log didn't tell me anything helpful but I got it to work after completely removing the source and re-adding it. Scanning for new content or updating library wasn't working.

Thanks for the help.
