The Renamer

[daveza]

Extremely useful app, but I'm having a few problems.

If there are any boffins out there...

1) What do you do if there are two movies with the same name eg

The girl with the dragon tattoo - there is the Swedish version and the new English version.

How do I get it to give me the Swedish version ?

2) If I give it The Italian Job.m4v ( Caine version )for some odd reason it keeps giving me The Omen ??

If I rename it to Italian Job it gives me The Brinks Job...!

 

[Keeper]

err...just rename those manually?

name the english version: "The girl with the dragon tattoo (2011)"

Why do you want to rename the italian job, it's already renamed?

 

[daveza]

Agreed ... but I'm sure there must be a way of choosing which movie you are referring to ?

 

[Keeper]

Yes, that part you do in XBMC.

If the file is called "The Italian Job.m4v" then your job is done, no need to rename it any further.

I think the renamer is made more to work with series them with movies.
Most of my movies do get renamed correctly though.

Every time I run it with Smash it finds an old German series and I get the most exotic of episode names
It has a problem with that and one other series, and apart from wishing it would handle talk shows it does a very good job.

It did the same with a couple of series I have as well.
There is a option where you can specify the name of the series and the tvDB ID. If you do that, it'll get the one you're looking for.
