Yup, I know... problem is it's showing the DVD order but playing the the default order.

I used TheRenamer to rename the files based on the default naming/order in the TVDB, but in XBMC when scraping, if I scrape by DVD order, it's showing the DVD order but playing in the default aired order.

So, on my screen, if I click episode 1, it shows the correct DVD information, but when I hit play, it's still playing the aired episode 1.

Operating System: Win7 64-Bit Pro w/SP1
System: Intel Core2Duo 2.4Ghz / 4GB PC6400 DDR2 / ATI HD 5670 1GB GDDR5
XBMC Build: FRODO 12.1
Remote: HP Remote (5069-8344) and HP Receiver (5188-1667)
Display: 40" Sony Bravia HDTV

I would also like this option. Although you can use the scraper to choose a different sort method it means that you have to change the renaming of all of those files. It also means that if for example if you have a mutli-user setup that if one person has been watching a show in aired order and the other would like to watch it in DVD order it isn't possible. Also with addons like Trakt issues could (currently i cant get trakt to work with absolute order) arrise.

Whereas if it is just a change in how the files are displayed and no change to the database trakt and a multiuser setup would not run into the above problems.
