    Question BB not parsing certain TV episodes

    I have episodes from The Sing Off season 2. I have used The Renamer and Media Center Companion to gather the meta data. BB will only show one of the episodes in the show list at a time. Rescanning will change which episode shows up in the list between either episode 1 and episode 5 (the final episode). Even if I go to Files and manually identify the files from the BB itself I get the same results.

    Any help?

    not 1000% sure but this appears to be a bug. Someone reported with a different show that they found that if each episode the description is the same the BB doesn't know how to handle it properly and only shows you the last one added.

    I have also witnessed this with various shows, and have pin pointed it back to the same possible description issue. I believe a bug is open, if not I would be glad to report mine (mods).

    On a side note, I have also noticed some bad data that gets fed to it some times. Example:

    Top Gear S15E07 (its called East Coast something something) but BB thinks its called Apocalypse, which is a special (Top Gear S00E88). Not sure if this is a bug or IMDB issue. So, because of this it doesn't add the special

    I'm having the exact same problem with the exact same show. I have all the episodes of both seasons of The Sing-Off and only episodes 1, 2 and 3 of the first season are showing up. Not only that, but the episode names and descriptions are screwed up.

    Its clearly NOT getting information from the IMDB because the episode names are totally different on the IMDB compared to what Boxee is showing.

    What the hell is going on?
