A small tweak in Windows settings will "fix" the drive letter for the device in question. If your Media Library uses removable media to store files the assigned drive letter changes can be a real pain. Experience shows that UNC paths (if available) give better results, drive mappings can easily be broken or changed, and not using them removes an unnecessary step in generating the file or folder path. Both drive letters and UNC paths are supported.įor example, a mapped drive on a NAS device can be accessed as m:\ or Īs-1\media in Windows). TV Rename uses the underlying Windows infrastructure to manipulate files, so if you can see a path or file in Windows TV Rename can see it as well. TV Rename doesn’t care how these folders are organised, however to us mere humans probably “one folder per show” or “one folder per show with one sub-folder per season” would make sense in terms of being able to (manually) find stuff later if you really need to.

The guide assumes you already have the beginnings of a Media Library - a folder (or folders) somewhere on your PC or NAS or whatever, with a bunch of tv show files in it (them).

The initial setup can be somewhat daunting as there are many options and settings that control the way TV Rename behaves. To do this TV Rename uses data acquired from The TVDB.
