Episode 0
« on: February 04, 2012, 11:35:55 am »
When I try and get TV Data on the lost Pre Season 4 episode :"Past, Present & Future"
It fails telling me the episode field is not filled in.
It's actually filled in as per certain tv sites convention as episode 0.

I have some TV Series that are Season 0 (pre season) which do not work either in the Lookup.

I posted about this here (beta board link, sorry)

MC needs a numerical value greater than 0 for both Season and Episode to do a lookup.

In actual fact, TheTVDb will not return anything for Episode=0, as episode numbers for non-standard episodes (specials and extras) count up from 1 with the Season specified as 0. You can check the website version of TheTVDb to see how it's laid out. The episode order is what you see if you click on "Specials" where the season numbers are.
