automap

automap [episodes [titles]]

The automap command is used to have the application attempt to figure out which titles (or chapters of titles) contain the next set of unripped episodes. If no episode numbers are specified, or * is specified all unripped episodes are considered candidates. Otherwise, only those episodes specified are considered.

If no title numbers are specified, all titles on the disc are considered candidates. Otherwise, only the titles specified are considered.

The algorithm relies on the duration being correctly set. It attempts to match unripped titles on the disc which fit within the duration range to unripped episodes in the current season. If this “title mapping” fails, “chapter mapping” is attempted instead. This finds the longest title on the disc, and attempts to find sequences of chapters within that title which match the specified duration range for the given episodes (all episodes by default). This often results in an ambiguous set of solutions, in which case you will be prompted to play certain chapters and answer if they correspond to the start of an episode.

The current episode mapping can be viewed in the output of the map command.
