Thanks for taking the time to look at it. Let me know if there's any more info I can provide, and thanks for your patience with me

No, I've only observed the behaviour with that program - and, as said earlier in the thread but worth repeating just for record, it appears to be a recurring issue when there's more than 1 recorded episode for that show.

At first glance it looks like the swmc response back to kodi is fine for the recordings. I am wondering if the ending question mark in the title 'Would I Lie To You?' is somehow causing the problem. My wife is signalling my computer time is over for tonight, I'll take a look tomorrow morning and let you know what I find (unless scarecrow or sbthomas beat me to it ).

Again, thanks for your time. I'm in the enviable position where my wife and her friends time with the tv is coming to an end for the day 
With this being completely outside of my own knowledge, the thing that stands out to me is that the title displayed within Kodi - as shown in the screenshots I posted - ends with '%20' before the number of episodes as added by the WMC Server, which I believe is code for a space. So there being some issue with the final character of the series title makes good sense to me: )

I can't trigger the problem. Can you test on a windows machine? For example, the one that is running serverwmc?
Maybe there is a problem char embedded in the metadata of the file. If you can, upload one of the 'would you lie to me' files to here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0...sp=sharing
let me know when it's there.

The problem continues in Kodi on the Windows machine.
Do you know of any way to cut down a wtv file? I'm happy to upload one of the episodes, but it's 1.63 GB and - with the appalling internet I have here - will take about 5 hours to upload.

There are programs out there, but so far as I know most of them remux before they cut and I would rather not have the data messed with. I am okay with 5 hours if you are.

Did a quick test, I made two of them placed it in my recorded tv folder and then ran serverwmc and then kodi. I am not seeing what you see, they display correctly, ( Krypton and Estuary). Maybe the difference is the windows culture setting between usa and uk.

bob, can you zip your settings for serverwmc and place it on the same google drive location? Your settings is here:
%ProgramData%\VDsoftware\ServerWMC\config.xml
Also, see what happens if you temporarily turn off appending the episode count to the series directory. To do this, go to the settings file of serverwmc and search for IsAppendingEpisodeCount. Change its value to false, i.e:
<IsAppendingEpisodeCount>false</IsAppendingEpisodeCount>
then save the file and restart serverwmc, then restart kodi. Let me know if the problem is still there.

Zipped config file uploaded as config.zip and I can confirm the issue continues with <IsAppendingEpisodeCount>false</IsAppendingEpisodeCount>.
In the next couple of days I'll switch my Windows locale to USA and report back if that makes any difference. (Assuming that's what you're referring to with the 'culture' settings...)

Just a note in case anyone else comes across this - this turned out to be a Kodi bug which is now fixed in the nightlies - #10982.
