Description of issue: Invalid date found (Parsing problem)

Hallo forum, im hoping you guys can help me :slight_smile:

I have a Tv shows that is called ā€œThe Pitā€ but the real name is ā€œCukurā€
I have been though ā€œSonarr Scene Namingā€ and changed that to ā€œCukurā€

BUT now when im trying to search for it i get this error (Debug) :
19-2-7 10:25:34.4|Debug|Parser|Parsing string ā€˜Cukur 2.Sezon 18.BLM (04.02.2019) 720p WEb-DL AAC x264-TURG.mkvā€™
19-2-7 10:25:34.4|Debug|Parser|Invalid date found: 4/2/2019 12:00:00 AM

Any comments will be appreciatedā€¦
Thanks

It may not matter, but what are your long and short date formats set to? Is today 2/7/19 or 7/2/19.

Like I said, It may not matter, but I would be a little surprised if Sonarr didnā€™t handle the DMY date format, since the majority of the countries in world use it.

Releases overwhelmingly use YYYY-MM-DD for the format, Sonarr attempts to parse releases using MM-DD-YYYY as well, swapping MM and DD if itā€™s obviously wrong, but in this case itā€™s ambiguous and Sonarr complains.

I wouldnā€™t expect Sonarr to do much with this format since it looks like it contains season + episode numbers, in a format it doesnā€™t understand and at best would be come part of the series title and fail to find a matching series + episode.

I did not know that. Most of the releases I see do not have dates at all. It may make sense to try swapping them even if they are not obviously wrong. DMY is ambiguous the first 12 days of every month (actually only 11ā€“1/1,2/2, etc.). I donā€™t know how much Sonarr pays attention to the date (i.e. how close it has to be to the data in the database), but that is a third of the timeā€¦Of course, it is an edge case, and they should be able to download manually if Sonarr can figure out the series.

I completely missed that. :neutral_face:

Because regular, season-based shows shouldnā€™t have a date. SxxEyy is the most common format for them.
Only things like daily talkshows are released with a date rather than season and episode number.

Thank you all for you input
I changed the date , and now it seems this is not a issue anymore, but i still got no hit when i try to search for any episodes?
So what should i do or can i do anything?
The episodes from the sites is named like this:
Cukur 2.ā€‹Sezon 18.ā€‹BLM (04.ā€‹02.ā€‹2019)

So can i change / edit something to search this out?

These are UI settings, they donā€™t affect parsing in any way.

This isnā€™t a format Sonarr can process, you may be able to do something in Jackett to convert Sonarrā€™s search into this format, but itā€™d also need to be converted before Sonarr gets the results back, which I believe Jackett can do with some configuration.

Fair enough.

:grin::sunglasses:

Hmm that i must research , cause I have NO IDEA how to configure in Jackett
Any inputs? or place to start with?

I donā€™t know anything about that, maybe their wiki or support channels have that information though.

Hallo again :slight_smile: and thanks for all you inputs ā€¦
I made a little progress yuhuuu :smiley:

I changed/added some keywordsfilters to jackett .yml file and it seems that did the trick BUT
some of the episodes has this ā€œinvalid date foundā€ error?
hereā€™s an example:
if i search for episode 17 i have succesfull hit:

Any idea whats going on?

Any help would be appreciatetā€¦

Invalid date because itā€™s ambiguous to Sonarr whether itā€™s February 4th or April 2nd, itā€™s not a format Sonarr will handle and since it canā€™t part the rest of the title to a season + episode itā€™s not going to work.
