Episodes w/o 'airdate' same as ignored

Hi,

Episodes that doesn't have an airdate added @ thetvdb.com, isn't working within the 'Scan'-section. They don't show up as missing, and they don't get found, even if the file is present (and named correctly). Since the episodes show up just fine within 'My Shows', I assume this is a application-issue (rather then a limitation/issue @ thetvdb.com).

Now, this isn't actually a big deal. I just discovered it while adding a small, Norwegian show to my collection. Since the TV-channel don't keep records of when it was aired, I had to just input some dates on the episodes, in order for them to work within TVRename.

I have no idea if this is intentional behaviour of TVRename or whatnot - I thought I'd let you know anyways.

Not a bug - intentional. If you want to see episodes without airdates, check the "Missing Check for All Episodes" box under the series.

There ought to be two separate settings for showing items with out airdates and those with future airdates.

The current logic with regards to the airdates is to add to the missing list if at least one of the following three is true:
1) "Missing check for all episodes" is turned on, for that show.
2) There are no airdates at all, for up to and including this season.
3) There is an airdate, and it isn't in the future.

There is a small bug with 2) in the recent versions (up to and including 2.2.0b1), but that will be fixed with the new version, coming soon.

I'll look at adding the second setting, as silentdragon14 suggests - sounds like a good idea.
