Can someone explain to me how I fill the below 3D tags?
What I'm confused about it this formatting....[-. _]3d[-. _]

Is it similar to this post: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid1505997 ?

How do I separate the entries inside the tag?
Whats this [-. _]?
I assume the above is the allowed separators in the file name that precede and proceed the tag, am I assuming correctly?
How do I format this to include several tags?
What does the question mark do inside the defined tag? (Is it a wild card)


Code:
<!-- Filename triggers for 3D (stereoscopic) mode. -->
    <stereoscopicregex3d>[-. _]3d[-. _]</stereoscopicregex3d>
    <stereoscopicregexsbs>[-. _]h?sbs[-. _]</stereoscopicregexsbs>
    <stereoscopicregextab>[-. _]h?tab[-. _]</stereoscopicregextab>
The tags must include "3D" or "3d" and "sbs" or "tab" (no quotes).
Example- Gravity (2013).bluray.3D.sbs.mkv
Dash period space and under score are possible separators. The question mark means that the "h" or "f" is optional (hsbs or fsbs etc).

Just putting a 3d tag by itself will not work. Must include the format tag as well.

Hope this makes sense. If I remember correctly, originally the tag was just sbs or tab but there is a broadcast network in Europe with the TAB initials and this caused some misidentifications. So now both tags are required. Something along those lines anyway Smile.

Thank you for the reply, but I understand the file naming convention in KODI, and I have that figured out/working.
What I would like to do is add the Over Under or HOU to the <stereoscopicregextab> section in the advancedsettings.xml file.
I wanted to know how I seperate the various different HOU/h.ou/h o u/h.o.u ta possible tags that the files might have?
And what is the function of this [-. _]?
[-. _] defines possible tag separators, between 3D and hou for example.
I know that this should work for hou or ou-
Code:
<stereoscopicregextab>[-. _]h?ou[-. _]</stereoscopicregextab>
Don't know enough about regexp's to tell you how to include tags with special characters as part of the tag. My experience (very limited) is that periods and spaces are only used to separate tags.
