[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 931961, member: 18896"] In the future you can avoid this by using a rename system that is aware of what TheTVdB accepts, such as for example SickBeard. Another way is to whitelist new shows manually. TheTVdB API can be verified manually to see what titles it would accept. [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar[/url] = Multiple responses, MP-TVSeries allows you to select on inside wizard [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar+Galactica[/url] = Multiple responses, MP-TVSeries allows you to select on inside wizard [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar+Galactica+Blood[/url] = Single response, auto selected [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar+Galactica+Blood+and+Chrome[/url] == FAIL The following are all correct on full title: [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar+Galactica+Blood+&+Chrome[/url] [url]http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Battlestar+Galactica+Blood+Chrome[/url] As you can see ommiting 'and' or '&' also gets a result, so it helps if you add string replacements to MP-TVSeries that turn " and " as well as " & " into " ". This will still get the series to auto-match, but prevents any issues when TheTVdB uses ' and ' versus your filename using ' & '. PS: On Windows you can use ';' otherwise if you like your files to still reflect the ':' usage.
