Maybe armooo will consider a contrib directory in the pyTivo package ? |

Updated to version 0.3:
| Code: | pyTivoMetaThis.py -p "/path/to/episode/directory"
|
generates metadata files for all files in the path specified with -p.
Currently needs files formatted as | Code: | SeriesName_SnnEnn_ArbitraryText.avi |

well you definitely need the quotes, the first error is because of a lack of quotes.
The second error might be caused by the source website being down?? I don't use this but that is what it looks like to me. Or the source website changed its formating.

Well. It is on a NAS disk, with a drive letter. DIR seems to work fine, so maybe the website that it scrapes from is down or changed. I'll let the author look. GDM , where are you? 
It works fine, except your program seems to not like it. I also tried it with forward slashes, and got the same error as above, so maybe the source website is broken or changed.
I am watching a show on it as we speak.
I thought I'd try it again with a trailing slash:
C:\Program Files\TiVo>pyTivoMetaThis-0.3.py -p "V:\Media_Files\TV_Underground\Dr Vegas\"

When you get a chance, can someone look at this program metathis?
I am trying to use it and it seems down/broken etc.
I know tvdb went thru some changes, i manually tried most of the urls and they seem to work but I don't know what they are really supposed to do.
If any of the group elders can take a quick look, I'd appreciate it.
I have 300+ directories of tv shows and manually doing each is going to take me about 80 years!
Thanks!

Tried it
Went into the directory where the avi's are located and it doesnt give an error, just doesnt do anything....
It also does not seem to like DOS/Windows backslashes. I needed to change them to forward slashes in the directory requested:
V:\Media_Files\TV_Underground\Dr Vegas>"C:\Program Files\TiVo\pyTivoMetaThis-0.5.py" -p .
V:\Media_Files\TV_Underground\Dr Vegas>dir

I think this is just a case problem. I look for SnnEnn, your files are named snnenn.
I'll update. Check for v0.6 later tonight.

ok, well, version 0.7, case-insensitive comparison ... please try. If it doesn't work, post the results of
pyTivoMetaThis -d
in the directory where you keep your avis.
Thanks,
Graham

Soon, I think. I just updated (added the --tidy flag) to allow for your .meta directory patch in revision 0.8.
Hmm. Might be a little trickier, the moxies-xml site is dead.
"Unfortunatly Movie-xml.com can no longer be hosted at its current location  let me know if you can offer some new hosting on the forums."
Edit:
the imdbpy module will provide the search capabilities, but I'm really wondering how to get any info from the avi filenames... There are so many variations on format, it looks like I'm going to have to just take all the text up to the .avi and try that as a search. Ugly.

| It's pretty crude, but functional on 90% of my samples... I'm using IMDBpy, so you'll have to install a python module , maybe when movies-xml.com is up and stable, that will be added.
