Paul,

Is there documentation for the series.xml file ? I have a structure and naming standard I have used for a number for years, prior to Mezzmo and I'd like to see if I can have Mezzmo use it vs. me changing it at this point. My structure is exactly like LRC's:

|--TV Shows & Series (folder)
| |
| |-- Series 1 (folder)
| | |
| | |-- Series 1 Season 1 (folder, video files inside)
| | |
| | |-- Series 1 Season 2 (folder, video files inside)
| | |
| | |-- Series 1 Season 3 (folder, video files inside)
| |
| |-- Series 2 (folder)
| | |
| | |-- Series 2 Season 1 (folder, video files inside)
| | |
| | |-- Series 2 Season 2 (folder, video files inside)
| |
| |-- Series 3 (folder)
| | |
| | |-- Series 3 Season 1 (folder, video files inside)
| | |
| | |-- Series 3 Season 2 (folder, video files inside)
| | |
| | |-- Series 3 Season 3 (folder, video files inside)

But the naming standard I use is:

Big Bang Theory 1.01 - Pilot

Where the 1.01 is the season and episode followed by the dash and then the episode title. I looked at the Wiki and see you support the S01E01 format and others but not a 1.01 formet (you support a 1x01 format). Is there a way I can use this format by editing the series.xml file ? Or more details on the series.xml file ?

The series.xml file is a "standard" XML file that is created by various media organizer/center/player tools. Mezzmo supports reading them (as well as <episode>.xml files, metadata\<episode>.xml files, etc.).

Regarding your filenaming scheme, we can adjust Mezzmo's filename metadata parser to accommodate your scheme. Email us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com and we'll provide a patch for you to test and confirm all is working correctly with your folder/file structure.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the offer of patch but I've already adjusted properties of the files per previous instructions. I'm all good now and no need to send any patch. The offer is greatly appreciated though!

The patch was for jbinkley60 since he has a slightly different TV show file naming style. Sorry for any confusion.

Glad you are up and running now .

Paul,

As always you guys are great and the patch worked perfectly. It will save me a lot of time in the future.

Excellent . We'll add this capability into the next Mezzmo release.
