Problems with RedirectMatch & RegEx

Hey guys.... I'm trying to do something up to match this type of URL:

video/2-Episode_10_True.html

But I can't seem to get it working..... my code is below, what am I doing wrong?

RedirectMatch ^video/[0-9]+-([^_\-]_)+.+\.html$ http://www.mydomain.com/

Code (markup):

So I can learn better can you please explain what I did wrong....

Thanks!

 

[^_\-]_

Code (markup):

That allows for one character between the first hyphen and the underscore.

2-E_ would likely match. So would 2-E_p_i_s_o_d_e

 

Ahhhhh I see..... so I should change it to something like this?

RedirectMatch ^video/[0-9]+-([^_\-]+_)+.+\.html$ http://www.mydomain.com/

Code (markup):

??

Thanks!

 

It wont ever match with ^video. The url path starts with a slash. joebert is right too. .+ before \.html is an overkill, [^\.]* was better. Why not try this (make _ optional):

RedirectMatch video/[0-9]+-([^_\-]+_?)+\.html$ http://www.mydomain.com/

Code (markup):

Still, more simple:

RedirectMatch video/[0-9]+-[^\.]+\.html$ http://www.mydomain.com/

Code (markup):

Or if you are sure that files under video/ are definitely videos:

RedirectMatch video/.*$ http://www.mydomain.com/

Code (markup):

Use ^/video if video is a top level directory.

 

Great - thanks a lot for the detailed post!
