A .NET class library for getting information about a TV show episode.
Uses a MEF-based providers to get episode information. The library ships with providers for Rovi and TheTVDB. Want to provide information using a different online source? You can create your own pluggable provider!
Install the NuGet package from the package manager console:
Install-Package TV-show-infoMake sure the provider plugin .dlls are in the same directory as your executing assembly. TVShow-info ships with 2 providers: Rovi and TheTVDB. REMOVE ANY PROVIDER .DLLS YOU DON'T WANT TO USE -- otherwise they will get loaded automatically using MEF.
Set the appropriate configuration values for your providers (like API keys) in the app.config or web.config.
- For TheTVDB:
<appSettings>
<!-- You can leave this blank if all data provider .dlls reside in your application directory -->
<add key="PluginDirectory" value=""/>
<!-- TheTVDB API information -->
<add key="TheTVDB_APIKey" value="YOUR_API_KEY"/>
</appSettings>- For Rovi
<appSettings>
<!-- You can leave this blank if all data provider .dlls reside in your application directory -->
<add key="PluginDirectory" value=""/>
<!-- Rovi API information -->
<add key="Rovi_APIKey" value="YOUR_API_KEY"/>
<add key="Rovi_APISecret" value="YOUR_API_SECRET"/>
</appSettings>ShowInformationManager showMgr = new ShowInformationManager();
string filename = "Once.Upon.a.Time.S03E01.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION.mkv";
TVEpisodeInfo episode = showMgr.GetEpisodeInfoForFilename(filename);
