Definitive Guide to Naming for Import?

Post by pidockmedia »

Is there a definitive guide to naming files (and is directory structure a huge benefit?) to help Mylar automatically ID existing files to import?

I have Mylar up and working well. I have a ton of existing files I'd like to import so I can see what I am missing etc, so I am using the Manage -> Scan Comic Library feature. All of my files have been comictagger tagged from comicvine but I still have maybe a 60-70% positivity rate on imports being recognized and I spend a ton of time "fixing" things to get them in accurately.

If I pre-create the series as "wanted" I probably have a 95+% success rate, but with the number I have to do that is also pretty labor intensive. I would rather run them en masse through comictagger to get them the way Mylar wants them to maximize the initial identification.

TIA!
