I don't Know if this is the right forum/thread or not but anyways my question is can someone help me with a regex for the file and folder format i have for all my anime. I'm new to regex and it seems a little to complex for me. So I would really appreciate it if some one could help me with a regex that i can put in my advancedsettings.xml file. I used the anidb web applet to rename all my anime to the following:
Anime Title - episode number - episode title [Group Name].ext
example:
Inuyasha The Final Act - 01 - Naraku`s Heart [SHINs].avi
Naruto Shippuuden - 001-002 [DB].avi
The folder Structure is:
G:\My Files\Anime\Anime Title\AT - Ep# - ET [GN].ext
example:
G:\My Files\Anime\Inuyasha - Final Act\Inuyasha The Final Act - 01 - Naraku`s Heart [SHINs].avi
G:\My Files\Anime\Naruto Shippuuden\Naruto Shippuuden - 001-002 [DB].avi
Thanks in advance
Anime is a world of pain and it depends on what scraper you are using. With tvdb many are split into seasons artificially which causes us problems since your naming has no seasons. The anidb scraper is new to me and I have no experience.
The best i can do is ask you to run a complete update with debug scanning on. This should create lots of failed to enumerate lines. Paste the whole log to pastebin and I will see if there are some patterns.

If i were you I would fix your naming directly. I very rarely suggest this but you have a scheme that will only handle single eps and will not work well at all in edge cases.
