Double Episodes showing as "DELETE ME" (1 Viewer)

[MiamiBeach]

I can't figure out what is going on here, and maybe it's a problem with thetvdb.com

For the series The Penguins of Madagascar, I have 4 double episodes that I cannot seem to import correctly anymore. They were OK initially, but something changed and they're all showing "DELETE ME":

If I delete them, they always come back the same:

00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - *************** Get Episodes ***************
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - Found 059 episodes online for "The Penguins of Madagascar", matching them up with local episodes now
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x31 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x32 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x33 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x34 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x35 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x36 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x41 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:41:15 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x42 - DELETE ME" identified

They look ok on thetvdb.com, but there are also two "Episode 0" at the top named "DELETE ME" and these seem to be the ones matching whenever there is a double episode. If I rename any of these files as a single episode (the.penguins.of.madagascar.s01e33-e34.avi to the.penguins.of.madagascar.s01e33.avi) then that episode matches correctly:

00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:40 - *************** Get Episodes ***************
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - Found 059 episodes online for "The Penguins of Madagascar", matching them up with local episodes now

00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x32 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x33 - Out of the Groove" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x35 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x36 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x41 - DELETE ME" identified
00000006 - 03/13/2010 10:56:41 - "The Penguins of Madagascar - 1x42 - DELETE ME" identified

Any ideas? Should I log this as a bug?

AW: Double Episodes showing as "DELETE ME"

Let them know about the "delete me" episode at the thetvdb forums.
Did you try to label the episodes as "s01e33e34.avi" instead of "s01e33-e34.avi"?

Yes, the files are being recognized as the correct episodes, but the details for the episodes being downloaded are incorrect.

After the "DELETE ME" episodes were removed from thetvdb.com, everything imports correctly into TV Series.

I think this is still a bug in TV Series, although it's so minor and unlikely to happen again, that probably doesn't even deserve any more attention.

Now Seinfeld Season 3 and Season 4 have the same problem.

Both seasons have an "Episode 0" in thetvdb.com, and so the local episodes cannot be automatically matched by TV Series (even if they were matched before).

I will create an issue in the repository.
