I have a lot of tv shows from some torrent site/sites and so there names isn't showing them under kodi >TV Shows but displays them in >Videos>Files

Is there a program to rename all of them and not make a mess?Huh

I've tried renaming manually one series and just showed 13 episodes after renaming 26 out of 52 episodes so I undo'd all 26 episodes. Need some help, and stuck from using Kodi and Plex but like to use the free software than paying per month just to be viewed through out the house.

Thx, FileBot really helped, How do I get Kodi to see wmv files? works with Plex.



Confused with how to make a "advancedsettings.xml" for episodes I have are done in splits+joined episodes to make 23mins.
Timon and Pumbaa 11a
Timon and Pumbaa 11b
Garfield & Friends - s01e01e02e03

or is that something else?
You don't have to do anything special for wmv files. If you are renaming files then you don't need to do any changes to advancedsettings.xml. What are you trying to do there?
Idk but I can't get Kodi to see wmv files and they are named correctly. I'll check again.

I read somewhere on wiki that it will play 2 parts of the 2 video files into one selecting from the list. That's the part I'm confused with and so I don't see double names of the same episode names twice in a row being listed through out the season (episode 1 part a & episod 1 part b). Really hard that it titled each episode show Garfield correctly but it's all coming under one file and so the 3 or 4 listed in kodi will keep showing episode 1 as a whole 23 min episode.

And I have some shows that the intro is separate from the show file and was also wondering on how to play the intro first then play the episode if that's possible.
Bump!

This link is giving me a blooding headache

Like to have kodi to see and list the 2 title names for the show i have. including showing accurect names n no duplicate titles for separate split file tv shows like for e.q. Disney's Recess episode 1a.mp4 + 1b.mp4

anyone help me out?
Are you just naming it like this?

Disney's Recess episode 1a.mp4

Because that won't work. It needs to be something like

Disney's Recess episode S01E01a.mp4

or

Disney's Recess episode EP1a.mp4
ok, thx, have one more question, I have a few tv shows that won't list the 1 episode out of all of them.

like missing episodes not listing but name correctly for the rest of the series named the same way
"Sonic S01E12 (SUSPECT.)mp4"
"Dynomutt, Dog Wonder - 1x12 - The Awful Ordeal With The Head Of Steel.avi"
Rugrats - 00x01 - Rugrats Pilot Episode - Tommy Pickles and the Great Big White Thing.avi
M.A.S.K. shows half the episodes or just 1 episode out of 75 but name correctly in file but just lists 1?
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you are asking.
-TVRAGE/IMDB-

nvrm, somehow it fixed itself. how do you get episode name listings from TVRage? bc i have incorrect order being listed for Sonic the Hedgehog series (1993).
or IMDB since they're more right by airdate.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106140/epis...t_eps_sn_1
http://www.tvrage.com/sonic-the-hedgehog...e_list/all
http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Soni...)_episodes

More right/correct names than
themoviedb.org
The TVDB
XEM
scrappers are incorrect.

All files names named as
Sonic S01E01 (SUSPECT).mkv .. .. .. .. SONIC BOOM-----------------listed as----Heads or Tails
Sonic S01E02 (SUSPECT).mp4 .. .. .. .. SONIC AND SALLEY-----------listed as----Sonic Boom
Sonic S01E03 (SUSPECT).mp4 .. .. .. .. ULTRA SONIC----------------listed as----Sonic & Sally
and so on.
perfer tvrage & imdb being scrappers. few series are incorrect bc of this
