Show identified incorrectly

[bruor 43]

I've set up Emby to use/favor tvdb for a tv show library, however, it keeps identifying

Devs (2020)
https://trakt.tv/shows/devs

as

Kingdom of the Mummies (2020)
https://trakt.tv/shows/kingdom-of-the-mummies

 

Image of folder structure:

 

Should I be stripping the show year from the file names when I generate them in order to get more accurate scans?   Though I'm not sure why it's picked such a wildly different series name to match on...

Three-dot menu>Identify as correct show? 

You can also name series folder as 

Devs (2020) [tvdbid=364149] 

and rescan.

No, but you should dump that space between S01 and Exx.

Thanks, I know how to correct it, was just hoping to figure out if the naming is off or if it's an error in the scraper.

Without your server log hardly anyone would be able to tell you that. What are your TV show library enabled scrapers and in what order?

I've set it to just tvdb,  I'll put the files in an isolated library and try to scan them a bit to try to collect better logging.

That would be great, thanks.
