TV sorting: How to add year to show name?

Post by Apache77 »

Hi all.

Some TV shows push to my SAB queue with the year in the file name. For those shows, I need SAB to include the year in parentheses in the show name when sorting/processing. I can't figure out the syntax for doing this, though.

Here's the current syntax I'm using:

Code: Select all

%sn/Season %s/%dn.%ext
I tried adding (%y) after the show name, which is the syntax used by movie sorting, but that literally added (%y) after the show name.

Does anyone know how to do this? The ideal processed result I'd like is Show Name (2009)/Season 1/S01E01 Episode Name.mkv

Again, I don't need to do this for all shows; only those shows that include the year in the file name, to distinguish them from identically named shows.

Years are not supported for Series, only in Generic sorting.
