Yup, you are right. Thanks for pointing that out. It was a formatting error on the wiki, that i have fixed. Thanks!

I've written a little script to capture the newly generated filename to an environment variable for additional postprocessing.

I haven't completely tested it yet so use with caution.

Here it is:

-----------------------------------
@echo off
:: addepisode.bat
:: Runs addepisode.exe (in current folder) and then grabs name of newly created file
:: and stores in environment variable addEpisodeFile.

addepisode.exe "%~1" "%~2"

:: get newest file (should be renamed one) and store in variable addEpisodeFile
for /f "delims=" %%A in ('dir /b /s /a-d /od *%~x1') do (
rem echo %%~nxA
set addEpisodeFile=%%~nxA
)
rem echo %addEpisodeFile%
-----------------------------------

Is there any way to use "AddEpisode" to add a non-GBPVR-recorded show to the database?

I have a couple of episodes that GB-PVR failed to record. I got copies of these shows from friends and now want GB-PVR to know about them so I can watch them on my MVP.

Do-able??

Thanks!

jch: the easiest way(?) to do this would be to modify a copy of your recordings-dump.xml file to refer to these new shows that you have and then import the file using the import facility within the config.exe

I dont really know what you mean by "just a show" and "season", but try this:

{show} {episode or date}

ive updated the script to handle these characters, you can download the new script at the regular spot. (I have not fully tested this function, so let me know if it doesnt work for you.)

thank you very much for your support, but with the new script i`ve downloaded happens nothing, no changes on the recorded files.
This happens just if the file got umlauts ä.ö.ü.ß
without umlauts everithyng works fine

please take a look

I have not tried either utility.

What is the difference between the "AddEpidose" utility and the 'Rename Recordings" utility?

I have read the wiki and forums. I just do not understand when one is more useful than the other.

And do one or both of these update the database, to have the GBPVR frontend point to the newly named file in the recording section?

Thanks, and Happy Holidays to all.

rename recordings and addepisode perform basically the same function. Both use the sqlite database, and update gbpvr to point at the new file. The difference is addepisode was written to allow the user to configure how to rename the file, using almost all of the information included in the database. As such, and the fact that addepisode was written by an amateur (me), addepisode may not work perfectly 100% of the time, since there is so much user input. Rename recordings just works, and works well.
