^^ It will require a separate database processor. I will see about adding one which will detect all episodes as shows. It will require a name. Please come up with an appropriate setting name for such an episode processor which will skip TVDB scanning and be universally acceptable for all countries and languages. It can be as simple as "no TVDB" or "Skip TVDB". Setting names are important as I am trying to keep them as short and understandable as possible.
It does not seem that it would be very difficult. I should be able to implement it within a week or so. All shows will be labeled S0E0, or do you think it would be more appropriate to create a separate naming convention which would include S*year*E*MonthDay*
I wrote a detailed response yesterday but the power went out, then the power went out again.
Can you do some testing for me to see if the current naming convention will work in a folder like "/episodes/Family guy/Season 1/Family Guy S01E01 (first episode).mpg"?
I need to know if this will work before I do this. The intention of mythicalLibrarian is not to make the shows ready to be copied to DVD. mythicalLibrarian is designed to import shows into XBMC. If the naming convention is completely compatable, then it will be easy to implement. Please do some testing.
The current naming convention is completely portable as a single file, whereas if the folder is required to be included, the file looses portability.

I put all my recordings into "Season 1" "Season 2" etc. The only issue with everything going into a single folder is that if I already have a Season 1 folder and a file gets moved into the root folder I have to manually move it to the proper season. I then wind up with 2 entries in XBMC so I have to delete the old one. I guess I could start putting them all in the same folder since XBMC creates logical folders based on the SxxExx values. It just a house keeping issue with series like 24 where I have 200 or so episodes.
The other thing was if there's a single config screen to make changes rather than run the full setup?
