I have spent the last 4 days working on a system that goes through the following steps
1.) Records a show using my TV tuner card and Windows Media Center (Windows 7)
2.) Scheduled batch file that converts the show to DVR-MS format (Run once at night)
3.) Lifextender running every 30 minutes on DVR-MS format files to remove commercials
4.) Scheduled batch file that converts DVR-MS (without commercials) to AVI (Run once at night)
5.) TV Rename to correctly name the files (This is currently my only issue and I will go into more detail about it below)
6.) Script that moves the files on to a local server so all the computers I own can view the data including my PS3 media center
The issue I have is when the files make it to TV Rename 2.2.0b5 they are in the following format
ShowName (AirDate).avi
It appears that TV Rename can't take the ShowName can take the AirDate and make it into a ShowName - SXXEYY - EpisodeName
Is this something that is possible?
I saw the find airdate option in the preference but that does not appear to do anything (does it just scan for that and omit it so it does not get confused it as an episode thing?
I would really love to get this whole process automatically done so I can just tell Media Center to recode new episodes of a show and then sit downstairs the next day and find the AVI on my media server.
Thanks so much for any help you can give! This has been buggy for me 2 days now (which also means that your steps might need to be somewhat basic as I am still new to TV Rename).
Thanks again!
