"Filenames without Season
There are two methods to add episodes without a season in their file path. Both ways will force the season to '1', so that you can use the 'Use Absolute Ordering (Single Season)' setting from the TheTvDb.com scraper.
Simple Method (supported since 9.11)
Use only one pair of parentheses
Example: <regexp>[/\._ \-]([0-9]+)</regexp>
Advanced Method (supported since 10.05)
Supports multi-episode files without season
Use an empty pair of parentheses for the season
Example: <regexp>[/\._ \-]()([0-9]+)(-[0-9]+)?</regexp>
