Wrong IMDB ratings for TV shows
IMDb and TMDb sometimes differ about the shows of a TV series. For example Magnum S7:
- IMDb thinks season 7 has a 90minutes first episode (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080240/episodes?season=7&ref_=ttep_ep_sn_nx) and a total number of 21 shows that season
- TMDb lists two episodes for that 90 minutes special (https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/734-magnum-p-i/season/7/episode/1?language=de-DE) and a total of 22 shows for season 7
TMDb's view also matches the DVD release. Therefore I first grab the metadata using the TMDb scraper. This also writes both the TMDb and IMDb id's for each episode.
Unfortunately that IMDb ID is wrong (because E2 gets IMDb's E2 ID but no id would be correct as TMDB's E2 does not exist in IMDB and therefore all following episodes are also on off) But even if I fix the ID manually, MediaElch still scrapes the wrong episode when trying to get the IMDb rating as it seems to ignore the stored IMDb id for an episode.

Hi,
indeed. We use Season/Episode numbers to scrape meta data. I'll see what we can do about that. Thanks for reporting!
