Title: VIDEO_TS folder ?
Post by: raldo on August 13, 2009, 11:28:04 am

There is a problem where PVD doesn't register the .ifo file for a DVD when it is located under [moviename]\VIDEO_TS\[].ifo

In PVD there are some regular expressions that seem to deal with this, yet, this doesn't seem to work...

Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

What do you mean with "does not register"?

Well, a .ifo file located under [moviename]\VIDEO_TS\ is not picked up by PVD, it's ignored.

Do your regex include (?i)^.*\\(?P<title>.*)\\VIDEO_TS\\.*\..*?

Is Smart DVD/BD detection set?

This works now; I had moved the DVD files one level down in the structure, into [movie name]\video_ts\[].ifo and I forgot to mention that the movie was already *in* pvd with the original path. I.e: There is no "file path change" notifications for DVDs. Is this a bug?

I'm actually testing because of Badger's trouble with DVDs as explained in this thread in the MC forum: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=52145.50

My limited testing indicates a file path change is not being detected in this situation (files being moved to a video_ts subdirectory, or moved back to the original location). I'd call it a bug, but I'm not sure exactly what how far it goes. I haven't tried, but I expect a change to a completely different path or drive would be detected.

As expected, if the File Path is removed and the files re-scanned, the regex I mentioned will detect the files and the changed pathnames will be added.
