No, that's what it says ... now.
When I started collecting and used XBMC for the first time (v9), the naming-conventions had the format I use now as the recommended format, putting the show-name before the season-episode markers was optional as it parsed the full path and not just the file. I like that, because it reduces duplicity in the full path, as well as make the files useful and human-readable in other media-players such as the one built into Sony Bravia televisions, or the WD-TV, in fact most built-in players, because of their limitation in only displaying the first 20 or 30 characters of a file-name in their simple browser.
No hope in hell am I going to alienate the other players in this house by renaming several tens of thousands of files just because someone on the XMBC scraper code team is too lazy to analyse a full path :p

I notice there's a "RegEx" panel in the settings, but the whole concept of "regular expressions" and grep is completely alien to my way of thinking (which is visual). How would I alter those to make EMM fit my naming convention?

HAHAHAHA
Anyway: TMDB.scraper scraped the first movie, and images
(but the with the old api, now I have to update to 3)

Upgrading a 2TB to a 3TB going to take 23hrs to transfer all my TV shows over WOW!! Then I am moving all my complete shows from a 1TB over to the 2TB drive.

In XBMC the <name> is still optional even though it's mentioned in all examples. The important part is that the season and episode part of the file name matches any of the pattern mentioned in http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Video_library/Naming_files/TV_shows#Files
I just ran a test in Frodo with a mix of name styles;
<Show>.SxxEyy.mkv
SxxEyy.mkv
foo.SxxEyy.mkv
and they were all recognized. If it still does not work, turn on debugging and check the log file.
Regarding EMM (version 1.3.0.9), I tried scraping the above mentioned structure and it also worked. Settings in EMM was Frodo default.

2) In any case you picture is GREAT! thank you for it!

That's a lot of time! what have you used to do the transfer?
(2147483648 byte in 82800 sec = 259336 byte/sec = 207487 bit/sec = 202 Kbs = 0.19 Mbps)
it's almost a modem
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - Randall Lind - 2013-02-16
I am getting like 11-12 MB/sec transfer but seems longer. I need to upgrade my current TV drive. I then have a 1TB and a 500GB for complete series those will be replace with the 2B drive. I then have a 2TB movie drive. My goal is to upgrade the other drives to 3TB amd then buy a third one. This maxing out my 4 bay mediuasonic.
Then build a HTPC hoping to start buying parts this summer. I use my 4 bay mediasonic now with my laptop.

No, it's pretty standard if he's doing it over USB, pulling about 27MB/s
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - sparklyballs - 2013-02-16
I'm transferring 1.85 tb from one drive that starting to show signs of failing to another newer one.
it's got about 3 hours left out of a total of 5 and a half.
both drives are usb3 though.

A co-worker is looking to buy the 4-bay mediasonic, have you had good experience with it?
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - Randall Lind - 2013-02-16
My new drive is Sata III but usb is 2.0 LOL It is worth it I will have more space just in time for The Walking Dead mid season premier Sunday. It start at 16 MB but fail to 11-12 MB,
I have a MediaSonic 4-bay probox and I love it. They also have a raid version for a tad more. This one is very easy just insert a drive and format it and Windows 7 sees it. I been using this for like a year with no issues. I got it after a computer died and I needed to figure out how I was going to watch my media. Amazon sells it for like $120

these are the only things here I have to do manually after EMM creates .nfo files (<playcount>, <lastplayed> and <set>).

Ahhh, I see, all good then.
(and yes, it's a classic, possibly the most-used response image I have ... and for those that know me, even more appropriate, because I look an awful lot like Tommy, except my half-glasses are black frame and I sport a chinstrap beard
)humpe's experiments and results are definitely heartening, I shall turn on this mysterious-and-heretofor-avoided Frodo checkbox and see what happens!
Oh, and I think I have discovered the most obscure bug ever reported for EMM.
Open the Settings, go to the Misc. panel, then edit the genre/language options so that the first two genre items are English only, then select the first genre in the list, and you will get an error. If you then examine /Images/Genres/Genres.xml you'll find that EMM has bollixed the edit, rendering the genres list un-usable.
