Question about Scape Updates (1 Viewer)

[todd3835]

Ok, so I have a question. I have a show (WWE Smackdown) that has been locked on TVDB. So new episodes can't be added to TVDB, I'm wondering if I add these episodes manually, if when the plugin checks for updates, if it will then over-write any I've added. I would assume the answer is no, but I want to verify before I go to the trouble of setting this up. Thanks for your time!

Just hop on the forums over at TheTVdB site and ask them nicely to unlock/fix S13 for you. More then likely the show got locked down because users were adding shows wrong, adding episodes as S13 when they should have been S12 or vice versa.

They go by simple submit rules at TheTvDb site, but you will be amazed to see how many commiters are not following those rules. Most maddness occurs when the same show is broadcast on different dates throughout the world and/or scene info is used that is wrong.

The problem is they locked it because I asked to have something fixed, and Sports aren't allowed. They weren't deleting old sports that were already there, but as it's brought to their attention, they lock them, and new sports entries are deleted. I don't understand why since it was fine, but whatever. So my issue isn't one that will be fixed on TVDB's end, so I'm looking for a solution to keep it working. That's why I asked if the show updates, if it would erase manual entries. I figure if I have to, I can just add the entries for a bunch of upcoming ones, and that way I figure it should match them when the files show up. Wasn't sure if that would work though......
