for some reason despite as far as I can tell being named perfectly thetvdb.com scraper keeps making weird mistakes, for example on a folder named "eureka (2006)" instead of picking the obvious show, eureka, first aired 2006, it picks eureka seven, and instead of "lost" chosing lost it choses "lost moments of NFL history". this is annoying so, is there a way to give the scraper more of a hint? maybe by including the shows unique identifier number in the folder name? I'd really like my tv library to work perfectly.

also, tv shows with 0 episodes to be hidden or not added to the database, since there's no point in them. (i get this problem with the daily show, the colbert report, and pokemon)

patch welcome for the hinting bit (would be nfo files...)

it's on my todo but its far from the top of the list

Rather than hinting, I'd prefer something explicit like the imdb nfo files.

This has been suggested before and I believe spiff was waiting for some API changes to thetvdb interface.

Or if the scraper is unsure maybe it could give the user a choice, kind of how you can force imdb lookups to manual now.
