Duplicate TV Show Bug

There are dozens of duplicate TV shows in my library right now. Here's an example of my file structure (sometimes due to drive capacity, seasons are striped across drives):

D:\TV Shows\30 Rock\Season 1\ [...]

D:\TV Shows\30 Rock\Season 2\ [...]

E:\TV Shows\30 Rock\Season 3\ [...]

F:\TV Shows\30 Rock\Season 4\ [...]

and so on.

 

XBMC/Plex/etc don't care about what root drive each season is on, as long as the shows have the same ID. But in MB, I have three TV shows called "30 Rock", all with metadata and the same IMDB/TMDB IDs--one with the first two seasons, one with the third season and specials, and the last with the remaining seasons. How do I prevent this from happening? I feel like the proper behavior would be for only one TV show with the same ID to exist, and all the seasons would fall under it.

We haven't added support for this yet. I'm sure we will eventually, we just haven't yet.

In the meantime, you can use a number of drive pooling solutions (including storage spaces in Windows) to alleviate this.
