No I didn't use DVD order as the naming convention above was not for that.

Then read everything again.

This question's always been related to DVD order. It was stated from the start.

And the link I provided earlier was clearly for DVD order.

I don't believe we support decimals in episode IDs. Grab the zipped XML download from tvdb (use the link in your debug log to grab it) and pastebin the XML.

Are there many other shows on tvdb using a similar scheme?

Cheers,
Jonathan

See? That's the answer I was looking for.

Finally someone who actually bother to read this thing. Thanks jmarshall.

Will do. Prolly tomorrow.

As far as I know, they enforced the decimal on almost every DVD order on the site. There's some info on the wiki but it's just a basic explanation.

Most common use cases are cartoons (#1, #2, #3), but I've seen some other tv series using this scheme as well (#1, #2, #3).

I did read it and the first link you provided didn't contain any decimals -

Thanks - definitely decimals in the dvd episode field. Please open a ticket on trac and attach that to the ticket (otherwise it'll timeout on pastebin) and cc me - I'll add any other details from there.

Cheers,
Jonathan

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there any way to be notified by the bug tracker when something new is posted there? I am having the same issue, and would like to keep up to date as to when a fix will be out, but don't want to leave a "me too" comment there.
