Rename no longer putting separator (Dash) after the episode title

[Jeffrey_Haberland]

The rename feature is no longer adding the set separator (I have “Dash” set) after the season title and before the file quality.

My settings:

All settings under “Settings - Media Management” are set to “Yes” except for “Replace Spaces”, Separator is set to “Dash”.

Examples on the Media Management page are shown with no separator (my older files all have this dash) after Episode as:
Series Title (2010) - S01E01 - Episode Title (1) HDTV-720p

This seems to have happened with one of the updates sometime after the end of the last years US TV season as as all of my shows from last years seasons and back have the dash separator after the episode title. I noticed this because if I hit the global (or individual series) rename icon, all past shows indicate as an improper naming format, i.e. every show with the “-” after the “Episode Title” attempt to be renamed.

This wasn’t something that was done automatically by Sonarr during an update, likely because the basic naming options (when advanced options are not shown) are limited and saved over a custom naming format that included the trailing dash, show advanced settings and update the format as you want it to be.

Thanks Markus, you were right and I overlooked it on the advanced tab. Added the dash back in (as well as scene/group name and everything is good. Based on the dates of my files, the change occurred sometime in late December 2015. Don’t know how it happened but, all is OK now.
