Added detailed debug logging to diagnose why High Potential shows "0 episodes" despite having video files:
- Log season directory detection and pattern matching
- Log video file scanning and episode filename parsing
- Log season number extraction and matching logic
- Log final episode count and processing decisions
This will help identify where the episode detection is failing in the pipeline.

The /series/lookup endpoint sometimes fails to find series that exist in Sonarr. Added fallback to series_by_imdb_direct() method which scans all series directly.
Changes:
- Try Sonarr lookup endpoint first (fast)
- Fall back to direct series scan if lookup fails (slower but more reliable)
- Apply same logic to both episode dates and metadata methods
- Version bump to 2.0.5-sonarr-direct-lookup
This should find High Potential, Breaking Bad, and other series that exist in Sonarr but weren't found via the lookup endpoint.

Fixed two critical issues:
1. External API fallback was never reached because early returns when series/episodes not found in Sonarr
2. tvshow.nfo and season.nfo were always created even if they already existed
Changes:
- Restructured Sonarr lookup to fall through to external APIs when series/episodes not found
- Made tvshow.nfo and season.nfo creation conditional (only if files don't exist)
- Added debug logging for skipped NFO creation
- Version bump to 2.0.4-fallback-fix
Now series like High Potential should properly fall back to TMDB/OMDb for episode airdates.

When Sonarr lookup fails to find a series or episode data, the system now falls back to external APIs (TMDB, OMDb) to get episode air dates. This ensures episodes still get proper dateadded values even when not found in Sonarr.
Changes:
- Add ExternalClientManager integration to TVSeriesProcessor
- Implement _get_episode_airdate_from_external_apis method
- Support TMDB TV episode lookups with IMDb->TMDB ID conversion
- Support OMDb episode season lookups with date parsing
- Version bump to 2.0.3-external-fallback

- New EpisodeNFOManager class with video filename matching
- NFO files now match video filenames instead of S01E01.nfo format
- Clean TVSeriesProcessor with proper Sonarr API integration
- Proper date lookup: database -> Sonarr import history -> airdate fallback
- Updated manual scan endpoint to use new clean processor
- Removed all migration logic and nfo_migration_required sources
This is a complete rewrite of TV episode processing with focus on:
1. NFO filenames matching video files
2. Proper dateadded field population from Sonarr
3. Clean separation of concerns
4. Robust fallback logic
- Remove bogus 'nfo_migration_required' source that bypassed proper date lookup
- Ensure episodes with existing NFOs still get processed through Sonarr API
- Episodes should get proper dateadded from Sonarr import history or airdate fallback
- Version bump to 1.9.3-longnames
- Preserve existing long-named NFO files instead of migrating to short names
- Convert existing short NFO names (S01E01.nfo) to match video filenames
- Create new NFOs with long names based on matching video files
- Only fallback to short names if no matching video file exists
- Fix movie webhook to use comprehensive IMDb detection (dir, filename, movie.nfo) instead of simple string search
- Fix batch processing NameError: use path_obj instead of undefined path variable
- Version bump to 1.8.3

- Fix WebhookBatcher missing nfo_manager attribute that caused movie processing errors
- Move NFOGuard comment from top to bottom of episode NFOs with other NFOGuard fields
- All NFOGuard additions now grouped together at bottom for better organization

- Replace simple string search with find_movie_imdb_id() method
- Check directory name, filenames, and NFO file content for IMDb ID
- Handle both full IMDb IDs (tt26394837) and number formats
- Add detailed logging for detected vs expected IMDb matching
- Fix validation failures when IMDb ID is in filename/NFO but not directory name
Resolves movie webhook processing failures when directory lacks IMDb ID
but files contain proper identification.
- Fix flawed title detection that caused duplicates when migrating NFOs
- Add robust title validation (check for non-empty, non-whitespace text)
- Improve debugging output to show title detection process
- Properly handle existing valid titles vs missing/empty titles
- Remove invalid title elements before adding filename-extracted titles
Resolves duplicate <title> elements in NFO files during migration.
- Add _extract_title_from_filename method to NFOManager class
- Integrate title extraction fallback in create_episode_nfo method
- Extract titles when NFO lacks title element or has empty title
- Support both .mkv and .mp4 files with comprehensive logging
- Fix applied to actual NFO creation method being used by episodes
Resolves title extraction by working in the correct code path
rather than relying on metadata processing that wasn't being called.
- Add detailed debug logging to _extract_title_from_filename() method
- Log file search, regex pattern matching, and title cleanup process
- Fix Tier 2 processing to call _get_episode_metadata() for title extraction
- Add debug logging to _get_episode_metadata() to trace execution flow
- Include both .mkv and .mp4 file checking with detailed logs
This should help identify why title extraction isn't working for
recreated NFO files and provide visibility into the extraction process.
- Modify extract_nfoguard_dates_from_episode_nfo() to detect missing titles
- Add enhance_existing_episode_nfo_with_title() method to update NFOs with titles
- Enhance Tier 1 processing to check for missing titles in existing NFO files
- Extract titles from filenames and update existing NFOs that lack title elements

- Preserves all existing NFO content while adding missing title elements
Addresses issue where existing NFO files with NFOGuard metadata were
skipping title extraction due to Tier 1 optimization caching.
- Add _extract_title_from_filename() method to extract episode titles from video filenames
- Enhance _get_episode_metadata() to use filename fallback when Sonarr API doesn't provide titles
- Update all _get_episode_metadata() calls to pass season directory for filename extraction
- Extract titles from patterns like: Series-S01E01-Episode Title[WEBDL-1080p][AAC2.0][h264].mkv
- Preserves existing Sonarr API behavior while providing fallback for missing titles
- Fixes episodes with missing <title> elements in NFO files when Sonarr data is incomplete
Resolves issue where episodes processed via sonarr:history.import had empty NFO titles
despite clear title information being available in the video filenames.
