I have all my shows updated in my library and all is fine except one show and its driving me nuts. It was a show that had one single episode in 2014 called "The After". The problem is, it is being scrapped as a show called "The First 48 Hours" Manually, I cannot find this show in thetvdb.com but I can find it in imdb. The After. I have tried an tvshow.nfo with the imdb url but nothing works ! Would anyone have any suggestions please ? Should it even work with an imdb url ? The folder is named <The After >, episode <The After - S01E01 - Pilot.avi>
It was there last year but seems to have been removed for some reason, maybe because it was cancelled?

Try using the scrapers in Media Elch. http://www.kvibes.de/en/mediaelch/ It does a great job for me!
Just add the show to tvdb
Thanks for that guys. Ended up adding myself as suggested and has worked a treat.

How does that work using the scrappers in Media Elch ? I mean, how does work with Kodi ?
Third party external scraper.
Will output .nfo files to go along with the video files, of which KODI uses instead of going online with its own scraper API.
Albeit as the API for Media Elch would use TVDB as a source its kinda moot if the show didn't already exist to pull data from.
I have added a bit of stuff to thetvdb. It is good to contribute back. It should be compulsory for everyone who uses to contribute ...
