Rename based on DVD order

I have several TV show seasons ripped from DVD to MKV using MakeMKV.
Many of these shows have the DVD order different than the aired order. (I really hate it when they do this, why oh why, it just messes everything up)

I want to convert the file names from the ripped DVD order to aired order.
I know that TheTVDB metadata does include the aired and DVD order, so it is possible to get the required info.

I would also like the file name matching to support an offset to be added to the file name matching.
MakeMKV writes the files for each DVD as follows: t00_xxx, title01, title02, title03, etc.
This means that if a season has 3 DVD's, then the first DVD track 0 = disk episode 1, and the third DVD could have track 0 be disk episode 12.

It would be great if TVRename could support this type of renaming, possible as a utility function?

I have not seen a dvd renamer yet I did see tvdb included the info but is it the same for all dvds I have seen dvds packed several ways with different shows in different orders.

As painful as it is the few times renames this way it was all by hand.

Hopefully someone knows a way It would be handy to know.
