Therefore I set up the season number only. And as it is not a single recording rule, specifying the episode number would be wrong.

I don't think the season or episode numbers get pulled down from the recording rule to the recording. They only make sure the correct grabber is used and (probably more importantly) by changing the season number you can select the artwork you want for each season or select custom artwork. The inetref however does get pulled down of course.

Yes I can see what you mean, although may need to wait and see whether it is something permanent or just the inconsistency of EIT data providers.

I tried looking up New Girl in The TVDB and I see that there is no German entry, so I would assume that it would essentially be impossible to get a successful season / episode number match from the title / subtitle. Obviously this will vary from series to series depending on just what data The TVDB contains. Other German users may be able to comment on how extensively The TVDB is populated with German data.
