Give Boxee a hint to recognize my tv shows
I've written a script which renames my tv-shows to the format of SSxEE Name.ext. Boxee doesn't recognize them as tv show and doesn't show them up, is it possible to integrate a pro feature so that I can give boxee a hint via a regular expression?

Inappropriate?have you tried this
TITLE.S##E##.EXTENSION -
No, and since my archive is fairly large I'm not so happy to rename all the files. Isn't it possible to tell boxee in which format my files exist? -
Inappropriate?hi ..did you write a script to rename your tv-shows to the format of SSxEE Name.ext. can you change ..TITLE.S##E##.EXTENSION
-
Yeah, that's possible, but the already renamed ones stay the same until I write another script which runs through my folder structure and renames them. Besides that I don't like that dot-format everybody's using not so much (which was the intention to rename all the files).
One alternative for me will be that I'm using symlinks for all the shows... -
Inappropriate?It's a pain to rename all your files, but Name Mangler can help:

Inappropriate?I'll add something to this question. How do I get Boxee to recognize double episodes, like season finales oder premieres?

Check out this post on the forum for info:

thx for the link, but it still doesn't solve it.
For example, Prison Break, Season 4, Episode 1 and Episode 2. It's a multi-part episode, meaning two episodes in one file. Currently I've named it prison.break.s04e01e02.mkv Just like the link suggests.
But in Boxee I still just got Episode 1, and the next is Episode 3. So Boxee finds the episode, but if I would know, that this is a two part episode, I would think there's episode 2 missing.
How does Boxee display these things? -
Inappropriate?I've found something in the XBMC Wiki about my question under »Custom Directory Structure & File Names« what is exactly what I want. But unter ~/Library/Application Support/Boxee/UserData I can't find an »Advancedsettings.xml«. Possibly there's another location for that? Or is it a XBMC-only thing?
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?After reading a bit more in the wiki I've got a solotion:
1. Creating a file named »advancedsettings.xml« in ~/Library/Application Support/Boxee/UserData
2. with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<advancedsettings>
<loglevel>1</loglevel>
<sorttokens>
<token>the</token>
<token>a</token>
<token>der</token>
<token>die</token>
<token>das</token>
</sorttokens>
<tvshowmatching>
<regexp>Season[\._ ][\\/](0*[0-9]+)x([0-9]+)[^\\/]*</regexp>
</tvshowmatching>
</advancedsettings>
... only the tvshowmatching part is mandatory.
I’m happy
