OTA recordings do not have season-episode tag data
« on: May 28, 2012, 08:02:37 am »

Should I be getting the season and episode info from the data provided via OTA TV? I do get the title/name, episode description, actors, bit-rate, channels, FPS, etc.

I need the season and episode number to correctly sort my TV series. Sometimes I get the season/episode data and sometimes I do not - even for the same show.
Did I just not setup in MC properly to caputure it (maybe one of the updates changed somehting I'm not aware of?

Is this info supposed to built into the broadcast?

Can anyone answer this?
It's just weird that I was getting the data and now I'm not.

Unfortunately this information isn't in the EPG in many cases.

Can't you use EpisodeByAirDate to get the data from the TVDb?

I have requested that twice already, so far, no love.  Maybe someday.  As it is now, I have to manually tag all my episodes, which I'm now very tired of, so I've just stopped recording TV.
