Released English subbed AKBingo! files Python script checker

obligatory screenshot of Okaro from the AKBingo! show
Continuing from what I posted of the AKBingo-renamer.py Python script, here is yet another Python script. This time, it will check if you are up to date with the released English subbed files from different fansubbers. 

Since most of the main things that are needed are mostly coded in my previous AKBingo-renamer.py Python script, this script was relatively easier to work on.

Released English subbed AKBingo! files Python script renamer


AKBingo! is a weekly variety show of AKB48 which are hosted by the owarai duo, Bad Boys. Sister groups of AKB48 also participate in the show. And oh, I love Japanese variety shows.

As of writing, the show has more than 300 episodes. And there have been different fansub groups who have made subtitles of the different episodes of the show.

Here is a list of the filenames I have collected so far. Most are hardsub files. Some I downloaded via Hello!Online tracker or direct download from the fansub groups, or I ripped them off from streaming sites using youtube-dl or JDownloader if there is no choice.

081029 AKBINGO! episode 5 eng sub - _H264-1280x720.mp4
100303 [Aidol+H!F] AKBINGO! ep73 SP.mp4
130130 [UKN48 x AIDOL] AKBINGO! ep223.mp4
130320 [Aidol+H!F] AKBINGO!.mp4
140311 Emergency investigation -  Is Miki Nishino really hetare_ - AKBINGO!  ep279 [English subtitles]_H264-1280x720.mp4
AKBINGO! episode 137 eng sub - 2011.06.01_H264-1280x720.mp4

Above are some of the sample names of the different files I have. If you observe, the problem here is that they have different naming schemes. I also noticed that I have started renaming some of the files but had the dates wrong. It is rather time consuming and prone to human error to rename the files.

That's why I decided to make a python script to rename the files.

Using IFTTT, post a picture at Facebook page then picture will be posted to Tumblr

It has been eons since the friends who are admins of Korni Mo, Gago Facebook page asked me if it's possible to crosspost their macro picture posts automatically to Tumblr. After some research and experiment, I finally got it (without me coding at all!). Sorry, this took too long haha
