[QUOTE="jonaskp, post: 392581, member: 26015"] This could have something to do with your EPG-data. When I record TV-shows, the EPG-data for "Episode" is usually in the form of absolute numbering (e.g. episode 103) instead of season/episode numbering (e.g. Season 5, episode 3) (Just an example. In a show that has excactly 25 episodes per season, this would be the same episode). The problem is that there are not a lot of shows on TVDB that has absolute numbering typed in. I have not found a way to do this easily, so I just renames the shows. If this is a show i have been following from the beginning (or it has only reached season 1) then this is fairly easy, although I agree it would be great if all of this could be done automatically. If the tvshow renamer could translate absolute numbering to Season/episode numbering, it would be great. But this would again need the TVDB to be updated with both Absolute and Season/Episode numbering. [edit]The stupid thing is that in some series I see in my EPG data that Season/Episode is actually present, but it is just written as part of the description of the show. I don't know alot about the xmltv-standard, but perhaps there are no tag in XMLTV that is supposed to handle Season/Episode numbering... [/QUOTE]
