Strange Auto-Organize file rename...

So I'm auto-organizing the new Ozark episodes (season 4 episodes 8-14).  When Emby does it's thing moving it out of the watched folder to it's final destination, it scrapes for all the metadata and renames the files...this is all normal.  However, for this show only...it has renamed all 7 episodes something completely different from where I have the metadata coming from.  It's weird, I went to TheTVDB and the shows are identified correctly, I went to TheMovieDB and the shows are also identified correctly.  Those are both where I have the libraries pointing to get their metadata from. So where is Emby scraping this incorrect metadata from?

Yea that is strange, I just tested it with a dummy file and got the same result. 🤨

Is it just that particular episode (S04E14)? That's the only one I tested. I was assuming all the rest where ok.

It just seems to be the episode title that's wrong, the rest of the metadata (plot, genre director etc.) looks good.

I just noticed this as well. Episode titles in Emby are different than what is currently on TVDB for all seven of the episodes that were released yesterday. But refreshing metadata results in titles being refreshed to match those on TVDB. I think (but I'm not 100% certain) the wrong titles were initially entered at TVDB, and then someone corrected them.

What is even stranger is that the overview for the item is correct, but the episode name is incorrect.

I have the extended version installed.

I'll try Ozarks and see what it comes up with.

There is a lot more logging in the extended version, and it might tell me something about the provider data.

Well, I just went back and had the episodes auto-organize again and the correct titles are now being used.  I wonder if there was some back channel database info that had the incorrect names that took awhile to catch up to what is being seen on the website's frontend.  That's probably not how it all works...just my simple brain thinking more than it should.

Just glad it works.  I like when things work...
