That is the basic problem with theTVDB, it may claim "You've found the most accurate source for TV and film." but it goes on to say "Our information comes from fans like you" It all depends on individuals supplying correct information to the various sites and for broadcasters using accurate...

Yes but only the crid suffixes are stored in the database to save space, this fix only affects the initial set up of the series recording and doesn't affect any subsequent episode that appear in the schedule later. We have seen occasions where broadcasters have incorrectly used the same series...

So you cant even get a proper fake when you want one :dunno:

It would be quite useful to add an episode change option to the Rename function (as well as the arbitrary command option for Sweeper) Episode is not a standard hmt field but one that @af123 squeezed into unused space

You can use the Rename function on Browse Opt+ to change the synopsis and other fields
