Rename TV Show files
This program downloads information about TV show episodes from http://thetvdb.com and renames episode files according to supplied name pattern.
For this to work your file needs to contain the season and episode number (in accordance to thetvdb) in this format: S#E# (doesn't matter if lower or upper case)
Usage
You can either just rename files in a directory (this is done recursively, so you can enter a directory with multiple seasons, but all the files have to be from a single show). Or you can add a directory to local database, so when you add a new episode to the directory you just need to run database update for the file to be renamed.
Arguments:
-s, --show - Name of the show
-n, --season - Seasons to be renamed (numbers separated by space or 'all' for all seasons in the directory and sub directories)
-d, --dvd - use DVD ordering instead of aired ordering
-c, --correct-path - Don't ask if path is correct
-t, --trust - Don't prompt before changing file names
-x, --linux - Don't replace characters that are illegal in NTFS
-l, --lang - Language of the episode titles
--print_langs - Print available languages
--name-pattern - Pattern by which the files should be renamed
- %filename - original filename
- %show - show name from thetvdb
- %epname - episode name from thetvdb
- %season - season number, possible to specify leading 0 like this: %2season (number means how many leading zeros)
- %episode - episode number, possible to specify leading 0 like this: %3season (number means how many leading zeros)
--db-add - Add path to database
--db-refresh - Refresh episode names for all paths in the database
--db-update - Check all paths in the database, if they contain new files, rename them
--db-name-pattern - Change name pattern used for files managed by the database
--db-clean - Remove deleted files from the database
--db-remove - Remove path from the database
