Identifying TV Series

[TastyPomme 7]

Good morning,

 

I have cleaned up my folders with TV Shows

 

Despite using TVDB naming in English (TV Show - sXXexx - Title) and having TVDB ID and Year in the Folder's name

 

I still have too many shows which are wrongly recognised :

 

e.g.

Maigret (1991) set to the 1958 version

Humans set to Extraordinary Humans

The Bodyguard was set as a Korean TV Serie (Female Bodyguard?)

 

Not more luck with IMDB's IDs in the Folders name.

 

Any way to get 99.9% of correct identifications by naming files?

Or Emby not to identify shows if not 100% matching?

Hi there,do you have nfo files?

When you go the the settings for your tv shows library, is 'The TVDB' at the top of 'Series metadata downloaders:' and enabled?

- No NFO files as I deleted them when cleaning up

or do you mean the NFO file of a wrongly identified show?

 

- theTVDB is top

Did you delete them before or after Maigret (1991) set to the 1958 version ?

Before

 

Then it was identified as 1958

 

And had to identify it through the client to enforce 1991

Testing that combination it seems to work fine for me. Server is at default metadata settings. We'd have to look at the server log from when it was scanned it.
