Unwanted tagging in Episode name...?

Seem to get the same results using both sab and sickbeard when sorting my tv show names... My filenames always seem to have additional information after the episode name such as the provider of the file...

EG,

showname s01e01 episode name HDTV IMADETHISFILE.mkv
dexter - s01e01 - Born Free HDTV XVID iNtErNaL

How can I remove this info "HDTV XVID iNtErNaL" ?? I can only assume that when files are names, that scrapers arent used to get the info from the likes of TVDB etc..?? This info is usually also part of the nzb too...

Can this be removed post processing??

Thanks

If the texts are in the job name (nzb name) then sorting will remove them.
They could also be in the AVI or MKV name and then you'd need to use %title.%ext notation in the sort expression.

Thanks.. ill go through the sorting config again...

When renaming files, is the info gotten from online database, or is it extracted from the nzb or download files?

Everything comes from the name of the NZB.
If you want fancier things, I must recommend using SickBeard as a front-end.
