Incorrect import (1 Viewer)

[Alan Honeyman]

I am trying to import a series called "The Five" but the importer matches it to "Ken Burns Films" and won't let me change it even though the correct title is one of those listed in the dropdown. If I select that and highlight "Accept", it will be imported under the Ken Burns title and want me to supply correct episode titles.

If it is in the list, you should allow to choose it. So you have to do something wrong...

Do you get any error message in the GUI or in the logs?

Nothing on the gui and I can't see anything in the log (attached).

I usually do such corrections within MediaPortal, for some reason it seems to be easier that way. If you open the context menu on the series, there is a "force online lookup" option or something like that, you could try that way. The only downside is it doesn't show the series id number, so in those cases where two series have exactly the same name, some trial and error is required.

Thanks for the responses folks, the problem is solved...if only I knew how it became solved! Following your comments, I proceeded to load the series by my normal path - MP Configuration -> plugins -> MP-TV Series-> configuration - and it didn't pick up the series!? Went into MP -> TV Shows and there it was, correctly installed with the right fan art and everything! I must have been too hasty and MP installed it in it's own good time. Anyway, thanks again.
