Either the episode numbers or the names are off. Looking at an episode guide the shift is about 3 episodes.
Not sure what’s going on here. I can rename to fix the matching and report if any further errors occur. From now on I’ll dig deeper to determine if the EPG is correct and not assume the DVR did the right thing.
The change that we introduced earlier this year EPG metadata is now retained for DVR recordings was to stop any EPG metdata / sequencing errors leading to repeated recordings or lost recordings. So we would maintain in the library the same sequencing that is in the EPG. This would only work provided the library does not have any episodes of the show previously matched to thetvdb.
If there is an error in the EPG metadata and sequenced then it can be reported and we would flag it to our provider.
I’ve created a new library for DVR and moved these files in. I suppose transcoding them to MKV would lose the meta data since that is set at record time.
