    I am really struggling trying to organize certain shows, and I think it may just be a bug in the software at this point.

    I am trying to organize the show Mythbusters, which doesn't technically have "seasons", but tvdb still organizes them by year:
    https://thetvdb.com/series/mythbusters#seasons

    I have changed the naming scheme on the files to be S[year]E[number], i.e. S2003E01 and so on, but the episode descriptions are still not getting picked up for some reason. I even manually added the show, season folders, and the first episode of season 2003 (season 1) by tvdb id and they're still not showing up properly. 

    At least the episodes are in order, so I can't complain too much, but in the screenshots below you can see that some of the episodes show up with descriptions, albeit very few.

       

       

       


    For the most part Jellyfin is working nicely with my collection, but when it comes to some shows they just get stuck then there's NOTHING I can do to change them. My last resort I'm thinking of doing is to remove then re-scan my entire shows directory.
