Split filename to TVSEASON, TVEPISODE, TVEPISODEID

General Discussion

I have a collection of TV shows with filenames like 's01e02 - The Beginning.mp4' and I'm trying to get the correct action rules to split the filename so that the s01 part puts 01 into TVSEASON, e02 puts 02 into TVEPISODE, and puts 'The Beginning' into TVEPISODEID.

Fields like TVSHOW, etc. that are fixed I can handle (or so I think)

What would be the action rules to do this?

Thanks

Try the function Convert>Filename-Tag
pattern: s%tvseason%e%tvepisode% - %TVEPISODEID%

Check the preview if it fits.

Thanks -- I've never used the [Convert] menus before, just [Actions]

That works very well. The nice thing is that I get a preview. I used it on several folders

I did have to experiment to find out that the pattern seems to be case sensitive

pattern: s%tvseason%e%tvepisode% - %TVEPISODEID%

didn't work in a folder with filenames like

S01 E02 - The Beginning

but

pattern: S%tvseason% E%tvepisode% - %TVEPISODEID%

did

The function of Convert>Filename-Tag is almost the same as the "Guess value" action. Almost because there is no preview. The syntax is the same.
