Just now, Drone redownloaded an episode of One Piece; apparently the English version of that episode just came out and since it was marked as 720p when my local file was marked as SDTV, it replaced it as per my quality profile. So far, it’s understandable and something I need to deal with myself. For now I have simply unmonitored old seasons.
However: I had imported my files from where Sickbeard put them and because my naming scheme does not include the quality, it had to go by file sizes to determine the quality. And since anime is so much smaller than regular series because of the smaller variation in colors and the fact that an episode is only 20 minutes long, it mistook many 720p episodes for SDTV. Now to change those existing files, I need to click on each episode individually, then click on the quality to make the dropdown show, then actually select the correct quality and close the dialog. Rinse and repeat. This is alright for a couple of episodes, but in my case a lot of them went wrong. I’d like a way to set these wrong quality settings right in bulk, if at all possible.
I’ve got to say, getting the info from the media file itself would definitely be awesome, so I upvoted the ticket and will wait patiently for the awesomeness to happen.
