TV Sorting not replacing pattern

I'm using the following string for the automatic TV sorting:
The example reads corretly:
Code: Select all
M:\Downloads\Show Name\file\file.avi
But the files end up in:
Code: Select all
M:\Downloads\Show Name\%fn\file.avi
Somehow the first %fn doesn't get replaced properly.
Version: 0.5.0
OS: Vista
Install type: Windows Installer
Skin: default

Problem confirmed.
We are looking for a solution in a later release.

Actually this problem cannot be solved without an extensive redesign of the sorting feature.
You are not supposed to use %fn like this: it should be used in a filename context, not a folder context.
Also, I don't understand the need, why would you want to have the original file name as a folder name?
So when you have the NZB name "My Show S1E1" containing the file "My Show - S1E1 - First one.avi",
you would end up with this: "\path\TV\My Show\My Show - S1E1 - First one\My Show - S1E1 - First one.avi".
Isn't it better to use "%sn/%fn.%ext" ? This would give:
\path\TV\My Show\My Show - S1E1 - First one.avi
Or "%sn/Season %s/%fn.%ext" giving:
\path\TV\My Show\Season 1\My Show - S1E1 - First one.avi
