Thanks pipin, will look forward to the logs

As for the "Media" folder, the feature is great! What advices or recommendations would you tell about how to correctly rename files to get the right iMDB info in TV Shows section?

Hi KONTROLMASTER. We are always improving our detection of shows, movies and episodes, so if there is one that is not being detected properly please let us know and we can give advice about that, and possibly improve our code

Yes, have some examples.. Some titles with TV Mini-series or the same multiple titles: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0186385/?ref_=ttrel_rel_tt , https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115215/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_9 . And also with the numbers: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110825/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080221/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 . Thanks again in advance, SubJunk and to all of the developers team.

Thanks for those links, I can see how it would be a bug in UMS if there is a year in the filename. I'm fixing that for the next release.
For The Incredible Hulk, because there are other series with that same title, you can put the start year in the filename and we will hopefully get the correct one. So like:
The.Incredible.Hulk.1996.S01E01
Note that it is always the start year for the series, not the episode, so even in season 2 you would still use 1996

I hope you guys get the tsmuxer issue sorted for MacOSX sometime soon. I know that release is not really used/supported but still I'd like to keep using it so I dont have to turn on my Windows PC just to stream to my TV because tsmuxer isn't working.

We are using the latest version from https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/releases
Please let us know if you find a better source for the tsMuxeR binaries. We are open source and therefore rely entirely on volunteers
