[FAQ] What is the best action to take when the file scanner gets it wrong?

(1/6) > >>

deazo:
 Hi all,

 what do you do when the file scanner suggestions are plain wrong?
 Just to give you a few examples:

 Filename: moon     file scanner suggestion: Change file path for "in the shadow of the moon"
 Filename: hair       file scanner suggestion: Change file path for "l'ecole de la chair"
 Filename: or         file scanner suggestion: Change file path for "American splendor"

I am bad at editing regex so what I am looking for are solutions that would stop these suggestions to pop back again when I scan another time.

When I click "ignore", what does it do exactly? does it "lock" the file for ever?

Thanks

buah:
If single movie to be scanned is in the matter, I rather do it via NMM.
If scanning several movies at once, usually I repeat scanning, but I exclude those with incorrect scanning results, and I treat them separately, one at the time via NNM.
This is because changing action to "Add new movie" (via context menu) doesn't give expected results in my case.

deazo:

 What is NMM?

 Yes I am scanning several movies simultaneously, but the scanner scans the whole hard drive.

CAD:
i have movies in sub directories. the actual movie can be named anything (and usually is)
directory = movie name (year)

CINEMA_PARADISO (1988)

seems to pick most of them up correctly.
i can then go and change one that arn't.
either by checking/changing date or changing imdb link manually and rescanning that particular movie

deazo:

 I too have every movie in a sub directory.

 Folder name = Original movie title
 File name = Original movie title.extension

 Don't you receive wrong suggestions like the ones I have listed?
