Some series are not recognized anymore

Help & Support
1

I’m on version : 2.0.0.2882 develop.
I’ve been using it since a few months now, without any particular problem.
But since a few days, i have something strange with some series : sonarr doesn’t recognized the files anymore as part of the series they were downloaded for by sonarr.

Example: Star Trek The Next Generation
I deleted the show completely in sonarr and took all the videos files on a another drive so i could re-add this show but without any files.
Then i copied my files in the drone factory, hoping sonarr will find them again : no luck.

Here is the log for one of those episodes :

What’s the reason of this and how can i solve it ?

Thx

Its the square brackets. Things inside the square brackets are getting treated as a release group for anime.

The quick fix is replacing [] with () or something else.

We need to do some improvements in this area: when we know its not anime, don’t use the anime regexes.

OK, i’ll change it, but it was working without any problem till the last week …

Anime has been there for months, this isn’t a new change. Sonarr wouldn’t re-import the files unless it was unable to see them during its disk scan, which sounds like happened here.
