Matching right episode, wrong title

Post by jchh »

FileBot is matching QI XL s13e03 to the correct episode number, but the title of s04.

The TVDB shows the title correctly so why might this be happening?

[Edit: s04 was a typo - should have been e04]

You can use the Episodes panel to see what FileBot sees:

Code: Select all

...
QI XL - 13x01 - Medley of Maladies
QI XL - 13x02 - Military Matters
QI XL - 13x03 - M-Places
QI XL - 13x04 - Miscellany
QI XL - 13x05 - Maths
...

:?: Are these the episode titles for Season 13 you expect?


:!: QI XL does not have a Season 4, so I'm unable to compare titles of Season 4 and Season 13.

Sorry, any reference to season 4 was my mistake. I meant episode 4.

Filebot sees it different to you...

The episode panels shows as follows (3 and 4 are swapped):

Code: Select all

QI XL - 13x01 - Medley of Maladies
QI XL - 13x02 - Military Matters
QI XL - 13x03 - Miscellany
QI XL - 13x04 - M-Places
QI XL - 13x05 - Maths
I have a snapshot which I am happy to upload, but not sure how.

[edit: incorporated separate post and clarified Filebot seeing the episodes differently]

I guess someone fixed it recently. Please clear the cache and then try again:

Alternatively, using a different database might also do the trick.

Hi,

Clearing the cache made no difference.

You may need to do it in this order:
1. Search "QI XL" in Episodes with TheTVDB to activate related caches
2. Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL (clear active caches only)
3. Search "QI XL" in Episodes with TheTVDB again to see if you get different results
