How are TV series with numbers in their titles. Such as "Snowdonia 1890" to be dealt with?  The server finds it in the tvdb, but does not handle the season/episode correctly. It creates season 18, and only one Episode 90.  It is obviously picking up the 1890 date as season/episode from the Series directory of "Snowdonia 1890".

I have the Series directory as "Snowdonia 1890", and episode file names as Episode 1.mpg, Episode 2.mpg, etc.  How can I get it to ignore the 1890 in the Series title?  I have had this same issue with other programs also.  The only way I have been able to get it right is to manually edit the metadata on the episode. It then creates a Season 1 puts the first episode in it, then the next day Episode 2 will show up the the season 18 folder, I edit it's metadat, etc.....

Well I had a brain fart right after I posted this.  I renamed the episode names to "Episode 1 S01E01.mpg", etc....   that fixed it.   Perhaps this will help someone else.

Cheers!
