[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 536768, member: 18896"] The thetvdb.com seems to have gone back to an older database, because pre-existing episode data has dissapeared. Seems I had 5 episodes on a TV show that lacked thetvdb.com entries (the most current ones being obvious for missing, because nobody was able to enter new stuff for almost a week). So the moment I deleted an episode that lacked a thetvdb.com entry, the entire show dissapeared and the other episodes became part of the 'Manual Episode Import' list. So to combat this, I've added recent data on 5 TV shows that also showed up in my 'Manual Episode Import' list, as I try to help thetvdb.com to stay current on episode number, episode name, air-date, synops, banner, poster and fanart. I still think this is a bug. Possibly the raw filenames that are found, but can't be matched to a thetvdb.com entry (also incase no connection to that site can be made), show up in either the same color (Orange on Blue3 skin) used for entries that exist in the database, but not on disk, or perhaps another color. Assuming of course the filename passes the automatic import rules. Those episodes should then automatically be updated the moment somebody adds the information to the thetvdb.com website. Instead of using a color, could also use "(missing thetvdb.com entry)" as episode title text for example to encourage more people to add. [/QUOTE]
