Here's an example that shows the problem nicely:
[code]
<programme start="20160520150000 +0100" stop="20160520154500 +0100" channel="I101.24327.schedulesdirect.org">
 <title lang="en">Escape to the Country</title>
 <sub-title lang="en">Somerset</sub-title>
 <desc lang="en">Jules Hudson goes property hunting in Somerset. He is helping a couple who are planning to take early retirement with a substantial budget of £750,000 to fund their new rural home. Whilst there, Jules meets a willow farmer and learns how the crop is interwoven into the county's landscape and handicraft heritage.</desc>

 <episode-num system="dd_progid">EP01259550.0642</episode-num>
 <episode-num system="xmltv_ns">12.45.</episode-num>
 <previously-shown start="20130325000000" />
 </programme>[/code]

Note the two <episode-num...> elements. TV Server only takes the first one, and unfortunately we don't support the [undocumented proprietary] dd_progid system. We do support the conventional and standard xmltv_ns system... but as long as the dd_progid element is there, the xmltv_ns element will be ignored.

One solution would be to have an intermediate step/script between mc2xml and TV Server's XMLTV plugin that wipes all those elements.
