TV sorting: How to add year to show name?

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.

Thanks Shypike. I'll find a workaround :)
