I have had some trouble lately with my raspberry Pi osmc not showing up any of my new tv shows, I have done some research on the net which I haven’t found helpful yet so I thought I’d come here and ask.
ALL my tv shows are labeled the same I have a program that auto changes the titles to
e.g “The Big Bang Theory - S09E01 - The Matrimonial Momentum”
I have checked this over and over its defiantly not it, even same spelling from IMDb.
So that doesn’t look like its it to me I then found how to go to file manager and look for the files manually and still couldn’t find them so after a couple days of messing round yesterday I got “unable to connect to remote server” not sure if this is common or not but all my movies worked no problem it’s just the tv shows, could it be because it’s not talking to IMDb?
Anyway hopefully I can get some help here I would love to know how to access the error log to see what the actual problem is but unfortunalty im still a noob with osmc and need a little help.
All files are kept on my PC in a “movie” and “episode” folder

Might simply be an issue with TVDB returning null results. TVDB has been quite flakey lately.
I have deleted the directory on both PI’s and now have different results, it seems that I am only getting a certain amount of shows loading up and its random which one it picks anyone seen anything like this before?
I have also done the most recent updates hoping this would fix it but nothing so far
I think I have found the problem all of the TV shows that arent showing up have multiple results in TVDB is there a way to force OSMC to only look at 1 entry?? I think I saw something about NFO file in the directory that will link it where to go is that right?
Or possibly add the show id somewhere
