Sonarr does a great job of recognizing episodes when they are downloaded, but I have found some of my downloads are not being recognized. When episodes have text right after the episode number they are not recognized they get error series not recognized. I did some testing and below is what I found:
thebiggestloser1618finale.mp4 = Episode not recognized
thebiggestloser1618.finale.mp4 = Episode recognized
thebiggestloser1618 finale.mp4 = Episode recognized
As you can see the only difference in the names is that there is a “.” or space to denominate a separation from the text after the season and episode numbers.
Idea: Have Sonarr parser ignore everything after 4 digit numbers or SxxExx segments in episode names so that existing system will properly recognize the episode in question and process it.
