For example does Doctor who season 4 have 4-5 specials at the end and in another thred discussing this on XBMC, BSG S4 had 6 specials in the middle of the season
And, since I'm not at home and can check for myself, what does it say as episode-number?
S? Special? 4096.1?:p
Ah, you must be referring to the new Doctor Who, because the original doesn't have specials in Season 4. I haven't actually got to my original Doctor Who collection (which is 100% complete, btw, as I boast ), so I've not got to the 2005 stuff either. If you used EMM-r to scrape everything, you have to manually edit the .nfo - fortunately it's just your Season 00 directory, so it's not too bad. I'd absolutely be delighted if it were possible to do that and I may, if I ever get some time, have a look at it myself and see if I can't trial-and-error something together.
The best way to see how that .nfo file should look, in the instance of Season 4 of the 2005 series, would be to have XBMC scrape them and export the .nfo and see how it did it. Spinecho tested a situation like that in Season 1 of the 2005 series. Season 6 will have 2 specials in the middle of the season as well, which may also be a good point to experiment with. I think he abandoned EMM-r and just used XBMC to scrape those, so it may be interesting to ask him (or try it) what his Season 06 .nfo look like, for those two specials.
For episode number, I think it will display the episode number that it is in the Special Season. But I haven't noticed, so I'm only guessing.
Sorry this is rather rubbish, I'm just going off of my head and speculation - I'm not home either
