I love the feature on the site to order the episodes according to the DVD order. In my case, I have Invader ZIM ripped to my library from the DVDs and titled/ordered as such. The website shows the correct order (when "DVD Order" is selected) but when I try to use the XBMC scraper it still collects information according to the Aired order. Is there anyway to correct this?

Did you update the XBMC scraper settings to DVD Order

I tried that, but since the Invader ZIM folder is in my root TV Shows folder which is also indexed, so I don't know if that is over-writing it.

I am admittedly new to all of this, but three questions pertaining to this subject:

1: How do you go about changing the scraper settings in XBMC to have it do DVD order?

2: Do the file names need to be changed to be in DVD order?

3: Is it possible to pick and choose which TV series are in DVD order and which are in aired order, or is is a one way or the other deal?

Thanks for any answers in advance.

You'd most likely get quicker answers to these questions at the official XBMC forums.

1. Hover over a show and bring up the context menu (white button) and pick set content. Once you've selected thetvdb as your scraper press the settings button and you can set DVD order. You can do it for a single shwo or all shows at once, it's all based off what you had highlighted when you brought up the context menu.

2. Not sure what you mean, if you set it as DVD order it'll assume your files are in DVD order and add them to your database as though you had them numbered in DVD order.

3. You can pick and choose, refer to 1.

Quick to answer AND full of win...

Thank you much!


EDIT - For #2 I did mean that if the files are currently named according to air date would I need to change the SxxExx to reflect the DVD order - your answer was clear enough given how vague the question was. Thanks again.
