As an example -
J:\TV\Mythbusters\Mythbusters.s06e10.nasa.moon.landing.avi
J:\TV\Mythbusters\Mythbusters.s06e11.viral.hour.avi
J:\TV\Mythbusters\Mythbusters.s06e12.phone.book.friction.avi
when added to library these show as -
Season 6 > 12. Lead Balloon
Season 7 > 02. Nasa Moon Landing
Season 7 > 03. Viral Hour
Its kinda odd, because in the above it seems take the description from 2 and the series number from the other...

I think thetvdb is awesome and scrape every other show with them. But the results for mythbusters are plain wrong so I use a different site.
Which site have you used?
I tried TVRage and it gave same crappy results as TVDB.
IMDB and TV.com only gave the series overview with no specific episode info found.
TheTVDB and Mythbusters - redstorm - 2009-11-27
I noticed that scanning for new content was not picking up any new Mythbusters episodes, after a little digging I found that on the TVDB web site they have the current season as 8 when it is in fact it is only up to 7..
As a work around i renamed all my files from 7 to 8 and ran a scan and it picked up all the shows.
I checked with epguides and tv calander and both confirm that its only up to series 7.

how do we get the tvdb to fix their data? as renaming the files is a pain in the A..
cheers.

Anyone know the proper naming convention for mythbusters junior to scrap using TVDB.
this is my format for the original mythbusters which works.
