    I have an issue with how JF lists the season 8 episodes for The Waltons. In the show listing I have the TVDB ID only (not IMDB or TMDB). I run JF and Emby at the same time on the same machine using the same media. IMDB and TVDB show different listings than does TMDB for S8. EP 1 + 2 are combined in IMDB and then ep 3 is "The Kinfolk". TMDB lists Ep 1 as a single, and lists ep 2 as "The Kinfolk".
    Emby shows the listing correctly (1-2 being "The Home Front") and ep 3 being "The Kinfolk". JF lists ep 1-2 as "The Home Front / The Kinfolk" and ep 3 as "The Diploma".
    Both JF and Emby have the order as TMDB, TVDB. 
    This is of course not strictly a JF issue, but is there a way to get JF to read from the TVDB tag as list in the file system so it shows like Emby?

    So what I did is I went into the metadate for each episode and changed the name. After changing I checked the box so that it is locked. JF played the correct episode but was naming them wrong due to TMDB having BS info. I had to do the same thing in S6 as TMDB has eps 11 and 12 switched.
    So I guess for me it is solved.
    I did put a request in for TMDB to change the listing but I doubt that will ever happen!

    If you want the TVDB listing. just make sure your directory name is:

    The Waltons (1972) [tvdbid-71226]

    and rescan.

    That is exactly what it was and is! But this version of JF seems to like the TMDB listings, which are wrong! Anyway, I have it fixed for me. Really hoping the next release of JF works a bit better, Emby works very good!

    Well it is what it is...  I've been using TMDB just for movies and TVDB for series along with labeling each directory with that metadata providers ID for the movie/show.
    It has been working great for me. I'm on 10.11.6

    Did you remove TMDB from the metadata providers for tvseries?

    no, just moved to second place for tvseries.

       

    Then in my movie libraries, I set like this.
