Some TV episodes not adding to library
#1
Apologies, please remind me what I need to check to work out why I have some TV episodes not adding to the library. For one particular season, only one episode is successfully being added but the other episodes are not (other season episodes where fine).

Here is the mediainfo of one that is not being added, the one that is well be below that:

Quick follow up - I checked the log and it said to check your tvshow.nfo and make sure the <episodeguide> tag is in place. I noticed that the nfos were wrong altogether so deleted them and tried scanning but the log still says to check the nfo, even though I've deleted them...

Please ignore. I have resolved by redoing the nfos.

Naming is what is important, please post your debug log (wiki) to pastebin, and tell us the filename of the episode not being added.
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge, click the 'thumbs up' button to give thanks :) (People with less than 20 posts won't see the "thumbs up" button.)
