    Amazon - Seasons and Episode numbers incorrect

    Relatively sure that the problems with mismatched Seasons/Episodes is because the DRM Downloader is counting the seasons and episodes rather than pulling the numbers from the website.
    I am using the USA version of Amazon Prime and you can see this clearly as follows :-

    Coronation St (Britbox channel) - Currently the season dropdown has Seasons 58-62 only and so when I download the latest from season 62, they are stored as season 5 (58,59,60,61,62 so season 62 is the 5th available season). ALSO Amazon missed Episode 60 so all episodes after that are downloaded by one less than they should be (Episode 69 downloads as Episode 68).

    For all of FBI - Most Wanted Season 2 , SWAT Season 4 and MacGyver Season 5 for some reason Amazon have an additional episode in the list (one of the episode will appear as available and then be duplicated as a "to pay for") and after this episode, episodes will download as one more than their actual number. e.g. MacGyver Season 5 Episode 2 is duplicated and then episode 3 will download as episode 4


    The season issue was even MORE apparent when I was downloading from the Canadian version of Amazon which I believe was due to Amazon not having seasons of the show available in Canada.

          Not sure if this helps or applies, but worth noting: Amazon lables TV series as "Seasons" but technically they are "Collections". The difference being that a Collection is a group of episodes that may or may not align with the actual season of a show. I found this on Impractical Jokers and Ghost adventures. (if I remember correctly, one collection of Ghost Adventures contained episodes from 3 different seasons!). Also, Amazon Collections sometimes include Bonus/Special episodes randomly inserted in the series which throws off season/episode numbering.

          To get around this you can use a tool that helps rename your downloaded video files to match the actual season of a show (I use a free tool called "Rename My TV Series" with great success).
