SxxExx / #xx position, location
What are the possibilities for having this information elsewhere within a shows structure?
Viewing SxxExx as pert of the title before the title is nice but my personal option would be to show it at the end of the title not beginning. If it's possible.
This is purely personal preference and may not be to everyone's taste of course.

+1 for "at the end"
( I typically sort episodes in WMC by original air date, not by episode title. )

Good lead-in. This is a follow on of what Scallica was asking here (http://www.thegreenbutton.tv/forums/vie ... 93#p102593). I was thinking the checkbox would be dual ... either prepend the episode title with sXXeYY (checked) or append the episode description with SERIES: Season X, Episode Y (unchecked). Just need to keep in mind that the unchecked option will place that information in the files metadata description field ... not sure if anyone would care.STC wrote:Presently I have the option disabled.
Somewhere down in the synopsis/description would be an even better place IMO.
I am against putting the information at the end of the episode title. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but that is where I put Part Number/Number of Parts information. An ending of (1/4) means this episode is part 1 of 4 parts. This is something the WMC never gave us and I personally love it.

After a rethink perhaps a refinement on features already implemented: leave current position in title with option to disable and add Episode to the already listed Season at the bottom of description. Include show number if available instead.
/edit: we both posted together, yes what Scallica has asked would be just what the Dr. ordered

IMO the poison of the S#E# is good especially if someone uses Emby or something similar.
The only thing I would ask if it's possible to add a - between the episode number and title? Something like this:
S01E15 - Episode

Can I turn this off without going through a complete setup again?

Not sure what you want turned off, but just open epg123 and check/uncheck the option and click the save button. Next update will reflect the changes.mldenison wrote:Can I turn this off without going through a complete setup again?
A checked box will result in the episode title as sXXeYY title; while an unchecked box will result in the episode description including "Season XX, Episode YY" at the end.

^ To note, any recording made whilst in checked configuration will retain the sXXeYY title structure. New recordings will not.

I missed all this. I think I'll do the unchecked set up.
