Since you changed to the heriachial folder behavouir ( WHICH I LOVE THANKS!) it wont pickup folders marked for specials. Mythbusters is the one that I have a problem with - I cant rename the specials in anyway (that I ahve discovered)

As in, you have a separate folder for specials? The old version didn't pick up specials folders specifically, and wouldn't do anything at all with renaming special episodes unless you had "specials count as episodes" turned on. That option turns specials into numbered episodes, which makes them get renamed etc. Since 2.1.0a4, you can turn on this option and it should behave the same as the 2.0 version.

e.g. Mythbusters season 6, with "Count specials as episodes" turned on, S06E19 is "Alaskan Special".

Just for extra confusion, tv.com (the old data source) has radically different ideas about the seasons as to what thetvdb.com does. e.g.: the last episode aired (water stun gun) is either S06E13, or S07E05.

Does that help/make sense?
