Description
Daily/talk shows like The Daily Show use date-based torrent naming (e.g.
The.Daily.Show.2026.01.05.Mark.Kelly.720p.WEB.h264-EDITH) instead of S##E##
format. When Stremio requests a specific episode like tt0115147:31:9 (S31E09),
the debrid service confirms hundreds of cached torrents exist, but Comet's
availability matching drops all of them because RTN can't parse a
season/episode number from the date-based filenames.
Root cause:
In comet/debrid/stremthru.py around line 264:
if ":" in self.sid and (season is None or episode is None):
continue
When a filename like The.Daily.Show.2026.03.02.Jafar.Panahi.720p.HEVC.x265 is
parsed by RTN, seasons and episodes come back empty. Since the request is for
a series (: in sid), every file is skipped.
Logs:
🔍 Starting search for (tt0115147:31:9) The Daily Show S31E09
📦 Found cached torrents: 10326
torbox: Found 413 cached torrents with 2933 valid files
💾 Available cached torrents on torbox: 0/10326
⚖️ Torrents after user RTN filtering: 10326/10326
TorBox confirms 413 cached torrents with 2933 valid video files, yet Comet
reports 0 available because none of the filenames contain parseable S##E##
info.
The same torrent names visible in Prowlarr results confirm the date-based
naming:
The.Daily.Show.2026.01.05.Mark.Kelly.720p.WEB.h264-EDITH
The.Daily.Show.2026.03.02.Jafar.Panahi.720p.HEVC.x265-MeGusta
The.Daily.Show.2026.01.07.Stephen.J.Dubner.1080p.AV1.10bit-MeGusta
Expected behavior:
Comet should be able to map date-based episode naming to IMDB's season/episode
numbering (via Cinemeta/IMDB metadata) so that cached debrid results are
returned for daily shows.
Affected shows: Any daily/talk show with date-based torrent naming — The Daily
Show, Last Week Tonight, Jimmy Kimmel, Colbert, etc.
