Change how recorded shows show

[jriker1 21]

I was recording shows from the Winter olympics and deleted it because I thought it recorded one episode at like a minute and stopped.  Today it apparently has been recording away.  But guess what.  Says 1 show.  And clicking in, crap I need to delete it again.  One 59 second show

Time to delete.  But wait, I noticed at least thru the web version when looking around the Version had a pulldown.  Wont' get into why i have a 59 second segment.

 

 

Oh crap, wait they are all in this submenu on an episode that says 1 show

Oh again, and if I watch that 59 second segment it marks the thumbnail as watched.

Won't get into if Split Versions Apart does something and what it does as shows keep recording, but if I don't want each of these to be their own show in the Cortina folder can I do that?

 

Please don't ask to try the non Android TV version.  It's horrible on the NVidia Shield.  How it navigates and watching shows always starts back at the beginning.  You can't jump forward in a show and again every time you exit it starts over.

Well, this is exactly what you want to do.  The guide data is reporting this all as the same "episode" and that is probably why they are being combined but you can fix it with that button.

Yeah, I went to delete the show I just watched and deleted 15 shows because of this.  Keep in mind this "button" doesn't exist in the android app.  Guess it doesn't really matter anymore but will post that in another topic.

The non Android TV version will you what folder paths will be deleted. This helps serve as a safeguard because you then cancel the delete if it doesn’t look right.

I've had the same problem with almost every Olympic event. I resorted to editing each events nfo file manually by going to tvdb, finding the "season", "episode", and tvdb number. Once I did that, the events showed correctly. I wish I knew why the nfo was generated with the wrong info.

It was what was available from the guide at the time.  Live events like these don't always have distinct episode numbers.

Kinda what I thought. Thanks for verifying.
