[QUOTE="bta489, post: 1217519, member: 138471"] Hi there, I have several episodes/specials that are not listed on thetvdb.com. In some cases I did some research and found that thetvdb was just using a different name and I changed my filenames accordingly, no problem there. But other times the special is not listed and the series is locked (or even worse, the special won't be added because it doesn't meet all criteria for a special). For instance the official Recap of Seasons 1-3 from [URL='http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=73739&lid=7']Lost[/URL] ([URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIuXZ37GQIs']LOST in 8:15[/URL]). I now have it named as "Lost - S00E00 - Lost in 8-15", which appeared to work at first, as it was displayed in the GUI, but every now and then it gets reimported, overwriting all my manually added Metadata and (most annoyingly) marked as recent and unwatched. Is there a way to use manual metadata for those episodes? [/QUOTE]
