    Default TV Show Episodes Out of Order

    Hi, I'm running across something very odd: some TV show episodes are getting cataloged as the incorrect episode, even though I clearly have S03E11 in the title. Is it possible that Boxee isn't using thetvdb.com as it's source for TV show information?

    To get more specific, South Park, Season 3 Episode 11 should be Chinpokomon according to thetvdb.com. But when Boxee Box indexes this season, and you select to watch episode 11, you actually get what thetvdb has as episode 10.

    The only way I can make sense of this is that either boxee is totally messing up parsing S03E11.....or it's not using thetvdb.com and this other source has the episodes in a different order.

    And it's not just South Park, I've found this mixed up episode issue with a few other tv shows, as well. I know I can make .nfo files to force the correct naming, which is what I have done in the past. But it would be nice to know what's causing this.

    Anyone have any insights?

    It seems that at some point, Boxee's identifying got a bit b0rked. You can report this issue at http://jira.boxee.tv and they'll update their database (which is some combo of a copy of a licensed version of the IMDB's database and the thetvdb.com site as well).
