[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1176454, member: 18896"] It is because dots are replaced with spaces by default, because most filenames are in the "show.example.s01e01.some.title.whatever.ext" format. TheTVdB admins should add an alias of "11 22 63" for that show as title, so that it will never be an issue. However inside MP-TVSeries GUI it should have asked you "no match found", and then you can re-enter a search. It is at that point that "11.22.63" is accepted "as-is", and a match will be found. This is a one-time deal if everything works out, and next episodes will then work as well. If you used the option of "skip, never ask me again", then it will be a lot more difficult to do, but check MP-TVSeries config then for the entries. API search = [URL]http://www.thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=11.22.63[/URL] As you can see only "11.22.63" or "11/22/63" are accepted, which are impossible to do with filename characters. So ask TheTVdB admins to add "11 22 63" alias, or at the very least "11-22-63", because '-' is a valid filename char. [/QUOTE]
