TV Episode rename not working through Media Organizer.

[psouza4]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 763

What steps will reproduce the issue?
1.Attempt to rename any of my TV Series

What is the expected output?  What do you see instead?
Expected Output: File is renamed based on series/season/filename
Actual Output: No file names changed and error in the log.

What is the exact version of the Media Center Master that you are using?

Version 1.32.22611.425

Please provide any additional information below:

I have the files in a seemingly organized fashion but I am unable to get MCM to resname
the XYY - T (209 - Zero no Tsukaima) format. While this folder I am trying the rename
on is already named in a well organized fashion the purpose is for me to rename some
files that have other random information on the file names. The feature worked pretty
well on the movies but for my tv shows it doesnt seem to work that way.

I am experiencing the same issue. My tv shows are processed normally other than the
fact that they are not renamed, even with the option enabled.

Same issue with me.  My current work around is to use the Renaming Wizard to rename
newly added episodes (Then re-fetch meta data and then manually delete old meta data).
 Although it is a bit tedious this program has eliminated an ENORMOUS amount of tedium
in this process.  Many props Peter!  If this bug never gets fixed this is still a wonderful
program.

I'm having the same problem. Renaming movies works just fine (and theier folders). Actualy
renaming the main folder for the tv-show works as well but not renaming the files them
self. They still have the names they had when downloaded. Despite Media Center Master
being able to identify what show and episode it is when comparing to thetvdb.com.

Im using v. 1.33 build 29311.597 unlicensed.

For those having issues with episode renaming, I hope to clear up some of the confusion.
 As a new MCM user, I thought that turning on episode renaming would rename episodes
when "all titles" are renamed.  But it doesn't (currently) work that way.

The episode renaming feature works in conjunction with the download parser - which
I only recently discovered.  Just turn this on and drop all of your movie and TV files
into the parser folder, and MCM will rename and move them in the proper folders in
your TV & Movies.

Hope this helps...   Michael

V2.00 also has this problem - which seems only to happen for quite long filenames (haven't
yet worked out if there is a specific length that causes it - doesn't happen on shorter
names).
