[solved] Don't get all season and episode numbers imported from xmltv in program guide (1 Viewer)

[Trond]

I've changed my xmltv provider to xmltv.se, now I don't get all season and episode numbers imported from xmltv in program guide.

Example of my tvguide.xml
[collapse]
<programme channel="zebra.tv2.no" start="20150724085000 +0200" stop="20150724094500 +0200">

<title lang="no">Ekstrem flytting</title>
<desc lang="no">I denne dramatiske serien følger vi gigantiske transporter over land, på havet og i luften.</desc>
<category lang="en">series</category>
<category lang="en">Reality</category>
<country>US</country>
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">4.3/6.</episode-num>
<episode-num system="onscreen">Episode 4 av 6 sesong 5</episode-num>​

</programme>

<programme channel="zebra.tv2.no" start="20150724094500 +0200" stop="20150724101000 +0200">

<title lang="no">Byttebaronene</title>

<episode-num system="thetvdb.com">series/259497</episode-num>
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">0 . 2 .</episode-num>
<episode-num system="onscreen">Episode 3 sesong 1</episode-num>​

</programme>[/collapse]
The first example "Ekstrem flytting" work with Season and Episode number in MePo, the last entry "Byttebaronene" doesn't.

If I remove the line: <episode-num system="thetvdb.com">series/259497</episode-num> from "Byttebaronene" , everything is ok.

Is it possible to make MePo jump over the "thetvdb.com" episode tag and read "xmltv_ns" ?

Solved: made a PowerShell script to delete all the <episode-num system="thetvdb.com"> from my tvguide.xml.

Hi - looks like I have to create a similar script to remove all lines in the xml file containing episode information using "dd_progid" . Can you send me a copy of your script?
I've never written a powershell script before.

Tried this on some sample files and it seemed to work - Powershell is quite powerful!

Get-Content .\TVGuidePreProcessed.xml | Where-Object {$_ -notmatch 'dd_progid'} | Set-Content TVGuide.xml

Saved as .ps1 file type and it seems to run fine

Thank you, I have had a similar problem. By deleting not nessasary tag, I could solve my problem.
It works, when you have the tag

<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">4.3/6.</episode-num>

first. It´s no matter, if you have further "systems" like <episode-num system="onscreen"...> or something else.
