[QUOTE="Paul Jackson, post: 1155846, member: 152549"] I looked at the code and found that it attempts at as best as possible to find an episode match for a particular series. One section tries to find a match by looking at the first 12 characters of the episode name. I would say normally this is a good idea because the data source for the TV DB and schedules direct might differ slightly which might yield additional words on either episode name. However, for my particular show that I record, "the mysteries of Laura", it does not work because every episode name space starts with "the mysteries of" which would ultimately make it match on the same episode number for every show. I modified and rebuilt the code to skip the section where it attempts to match the first 12 characters on only for the mysteries of Laura. I have included a copy of the file I built for anyone else that is having this problem. To install it just shut down the TV service and replace the DLL. I would only recommend using this if you are someone that records "the mysteries of Laura". The modification I made was very minor but it is hardcoded. It is by no means the best solution but is good for a workaround for right now until I or someone else comes up with a better solution. [/QUOTE]
