but the last two seasons doesn't have name when i watch them in media portal. i just get some jebrish instead.

Just verify if your filenames match up with the thetvdb.com order, and rename the files that don't.

For South Park that would be: South Park: Complete Episode List

You can use the links at the bottom "Aired Order | DVD Order | Absolute Order" to match up with how your collection is named.

The easiest way for TVSeries plugin to match things up would be based on Aired Order via S12E10 or 12x10 being part of the filename for 10th Episode on Season 12.

So "South Park S12E10.avi" is all you need then, any extra information, especially numbers in the title part can throw off the RegExp and not allow for an automatic matchup.

but the problem is that if you go to the thetvdb.com to the last seasons and you will choose the dvd order you wont be able to see the episodes numbers.

That is because nobody took the time to edit in the 'Absolute Number' field on all the South Park episodes.

Thetvdb.com doesn't magically get all this information, so for your own use and many others, feel free to start editing the thetvdb.com records so that they do.

Or rename all your local episodes in the Aired Order format, which somebody did already add.
