TV title parser needs BIG time improvements. Case in point: BSG

[electronicsguy 0]

Hello,

       Trying to add "Battlestar Galactica Miniseries" to my Emby library. Tried all possible combinations of namings - title (year)/files, title (year)/title-filename, etc etc. Inserted the IMDB id:tt0314979

 

But even then, it keeps recognizing it incorrectly as:

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/235631-the-shiny-group

What's going on? Why is this sooooo hard? A folder/filename like "Battlestar Galactica Miniseries (2003)/Battlestar Galactica - Miniseries 1.mp4" - is it so hard to parse this correctly?

Some more example: 

"The X-files" gets detected as some other "files"

"Silo" gets detected as the spanish show "Si Lo Dice Mi Madre"

"Sherlock" (2010 TV series) gets detected as "How Sherlock Changed the World"

You answers lay within your own question.  You are adding a TV SERIES yet you are identifying it as  MOVIE .  Check your Metadata fetcher settings in your library setup.  Nothing to improve if done correctly.  You can see clearly it is querying the "Themoviedb.com" where it should be querying "thetvdb.com"
