Commented Issue: Downloading Show information [1552]

Hi,

I recently discovered MCEBuddy, but i'm having trouble getting it to obtain the show information from the filename.

The file is named
Elementary.S01E22.720p HDTV X264-DIMENSION nzb.mkv

From the log I can see that it looks to me that it is unable to determine the showname correctly, as well as the series and episode details. This of course makes it hard to down load the information from the sources on the interwebs.

The log has
INFORMATION> 2013-05-10T12:32:09 MCEBuddy.Engine.ConversionJob --> Current System language is English (Australia) (eng)

is there a way for me to set a set of patterns MCEBuddy can use to try and determine the show details?

thanks

MCEBuddy can parse the Following details from the filename:

SHOWNAME_YYYYMMDD_XYZ

or

SHOWNAME_YYYYMMDD

Where YYYYMMDD is the air date (not recorded date)
