Hi,
Every time a new episode of "American Dad!" is added, XBMC rescans all seasons and episodes of this show again, adding them all as "recently added episodes".
I assume this is because the exclamation point in the name serving as some kind of wildcard for XBMC, because I haven't seen this behavior with other shows. The folder structure and episode naming is all created automatically by Sickbeard, which in turn gets this from thetvdb (like XBMC). So the path and episodes have this structure:
m:\SERIES\American Dad\S08\American.Dad!.s08e01.Hot.Water.SD.TV.avi
The workaround is simple (manually renaming the files), but I was hoping if there was a way to keep the "official" and automatic naming without having the recent episodes list overwritten?
