I recently put in the season of almost human on my HTPC, Now, the season was aired out of order so I renamed the episodes to the proper order that they SHOULD Have been aired. Unfortunately XBMC, or the scraper is listing them in the order they were aired so the episodes do not match the episode numbers or titles in most cases.
WHat is the best way to fix this? Just manually rename each one through the XBMC edit title area or is there an easier/better way?
Thanks in advance!

Could you please screenshot your filenames and the order you expect ? Sounds like you are doing something very weird.

He is doing something weird, it works just fine here with a mock episodes on a test

not needed or wanted.
^^ that has 0byte fake files that will be scanned by XBMC when content set TVDB...
In any ordering used by TVDB be it air order/dvd order/absolute order that is it, no other orders exist for this Show / episodes there.

Seems tvdb dvdorder is fixed
http://thetvdb.com/index.php?tab=season&...&order=dvd according to what Hitcher posted, so someone must have gone and changed it.
In this case just change the E# around, on the source make sure scraper is set to dvd order and refresh info for show, this should now pick up the correct order, I just tested with mock files and seems ok, no nfo's required.
here is a quick test dummy files with correct order naming for both aired / dvd order
http://speedy.sh/NxBrr/test.zip it should mirror what tvdb has if content and source is set accordingly.

What about edit sort title? Adding an initilal "Ep01", "Ep02" etc to the title of these, of wich they are sorted by (Does not display in list).
Or does this only apply to movies? I guess this would require files to be named so thar conents and scraper info go correctly together - but still, the displayed order should be whatever you want it to be.
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge - please click the plus to the left below to give thanks

Slightly convoluted that, but I guess it could work in some bizarro reality as well
anyone sane would want scraper and naming correctly for sake of sanity and future scraping.

movies dont have episode nr's and that what matters to scraper. First you must have episodes in a showname folder (seasosn folders ignored anyway) then each episode is S##E##, rest like (nameblabla S##e## tittleblabla) pretty much only for sake of user organization sake.
