If you are in the US or Canada using a zap2it based EPG source the unique series ID in the database for movies should begin with MV and imageGrabLite already searches these movies first on themoviedb.org. If you add the command line parameter --zap2it it won't ever try to find the "MV" movies on the tv sites.

With UltraXMLTV_Enhancer can you add the year to the subitle? That field isn't used normally used for movies so it might be a clean way to do this. If not I will think about it.

UltraXMLTV_Enhancer is pretty flexible, and it already puts the date at the beginning of the description. I believe that the reason to add it to the title is so that we can have the correct/different art for the various versions of the movies with the same name. So, for instance, we could have one show art file for "Fame [2009]" and one for the original "Fame [1980]".

I understand the reason for the year, this is why I want sub to add it. If you can configure it use the traditional (XBMC, NMJ etc) standard round brackets for the year I can make the change.

It looks like with the current version, I can't change the delimiters for movie titles. I can only include or exclude the year in square brackets. I'll ask Zhed if he can make it configurable (or just change to parentheses) for the next release.

Okay good. The attached should work once you get the update.

Here is an update to imageGrabLite that in addition to downloading art, optionally renames certain files to the more standard name.S##E##.Episode format used by external programs. (see the title bar below) It is primarily of interest to those in North America, as it keys off the sub-title. It might be worth a look elsewhere if your guide has sub-title information especially if imageGrabLite has been working for you. Matching will improve when/if sub populate the original_air_date information in some EPG guides

I. Renaming is currently only available in PostProcessing.bat after a file is saved, bulk renaming is not supported.

To use this in PostProcessing.bat add this as the last line in your postprocessing.bat file

"C:\Program Files\NPVR\imageGrabLite.exe" --oid %3 --rename
or for 64bit
"C:\Program Files (x86)\NPVR\imageGrabLite.exe" --oid %3 --rename

It is important that this be set as the last line, to ensure comskip, transcoded files etc, are also renamed. Exception: if you delete the .ts file during post processing, do this after running imageGrabLite.

II. If you decide you don't like the format there is a recovery mechanism to a NPVR-like format

"C:\Program Files\NPVR\imageGrabLite.exe" --oid ## --reset

The ## number is the database value for the recording shown in NRecord.log in this example it is 1065

"About to start recording (1065): C:\movies\Glee\Glee_20110927_23000001.ts"

III. You can use the --rename ## optional manually at anytime too. You might want to do this if you cancel a show since NPVR doesn't post process cancelled recording.

IV. Limitations

- Lots, especially on pattern matching trouble shoot below
- Does not rename sub-title in NPVR database (future maybe)

IV. Troubleshooting.

I expect there will be a few glitches. To help debug compress and upload the ImageGrab logs and the seriesname.xml file from the Plugins\Searchlite\Series folder.

I tried using the rename last night, the first show(Fringe) was renamed correct, the second one(Supernatural) didn't and no log was created for it.
I tried to rename manually but it didn't work.

Can you make and easy way to get the oid's from the database to manually rename older shows?

The data on TheTVDB.com looks wrong <EpisodeName>The Girl Next Door </EpisodeName> Since it is a user supported site too so you could and probably should fix it by removing that trailing space online. The attached should handle this case (using --oid 1837 --rename )

Maybe in the future. If enough users tell me the donate to TheTVDB.com http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=donation then I will be less concerned about the hit it will place on it
