Ticket #10613: MythVideo file parser no longer recognises the top level directory

#10613: MythVideo file parser no longer recognises the top level directory
---------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: jlbergqvist@… | Type: Bug Report - General
Status: new | Priority: minor
Milestone: 0.25.1 | Component: MythTV - General
Version: 0.25-fixes | Severity: medium
Keywords: | Ticket locked: 0
---------------------------+--------------------------------------
Before 0.25, the video browser would fill in basic metadata (show title,
subtitle, episode & season number) from the filename and directory path.
Now, it doesn't recognise the directory above the one the video is in when
filling in metadata, which is a pain if you have a TV show with seasons in
seperate folders. Previously it would recognise this heirarchy fine:

Frasier -> Season 01 -> 1x01 - The Good Son.ext and would grab the show
title (Frasier) the Episode Name and Number from the file name.

as of 0.25, the parser (using this example) ignores everything before the
"Season 01" Directory. So instead of the show title being "Frasier", the
title is "Season 01", which means when you run a metadata scan, it doesn't
pick up any info as it uses "Season 01" as the search term.

Could this behaviour be put back? I don't see why this has changed, and
its only a minor issue.

Comment:

The scanner uses the localized versions of the terms "Season" and
"Episode", rather than those terms themselves. That means for example, if
one is using the en-GB translation, the scanner is looking for "Series",
and the use of "Season" would be misinterpreted. The code is working
exactly as designed, if perhaps not completely as expected. I'm closing
this ticket for now, but unlocking it in the event someone wants to come
up with a patch to make the regular expression handle all forms of that
term that are available in the translation files simultaneously.

Comment (by mikey_31415@…):

Replying to [comment:11 Nicolas Riendeau <nriendeau@…>]:
> In [changeset:de9ede4a8eeaa335584ab466f29f928db51238ba/mythtv]:
> {{{
> #!CommitTicketReference repository="mythtv"
revision="de9ede4a8eeaa335584ab466f29f928db51238ba"
>I too have been bothered by the 0.25 release that does not contain the
full file path name in the DNLA published video names. Only the leaf file
name is visible. Rather than arbitrate which strings are going to be
accepted as part of the path name, I propose that the entire path name
(without translation or interpretation) be published. This would return
the usable behavior and features that were contained in the pre-0.25
releases that most people desire from their MythBackend.

The last thing that I want to do is scroll through literally thousands of
video files alphabetically listed by leaf fill names when I’m trying to
find something to watch on my DLNA client devices. Directory hierarchy
helps by creating structure to break large video collections into
something that is actually usable. Quibbling over “Season” or “Series”
isn’t going to fix this!!!

Prediction: Myth will become USELESS to anyone with a sizable collection
without directory hierarchy video file names.
