Metatdata tools - fixing database errors?

I've started using metatdata tools for Sage.v7 and I'm finding that there are errors in the metadata database. On at least one show, it displays the wrong show title on the web page, but the metadata appears to be correct. On 2 others, when I go to the show's page to see all of the episodes, it lists episodes from another show mixed-in. How do I correct these and other discrepancies that I may find? I tried rebuilding the database, but that didn't help.

Thanks!

Your only option may be to manually fix the metadata for the "broken" files using the web ui.

When BMT is run in a "scan" mode or automatic update mode, it's not guaranteed to pick the right matches. It does its best to try and find the correct match by comparing titles, years, etc, but there is always the possibility for error. I would think that if you get 80% success rate on a scan, then you are probably doing OK. The rest, will need to be manually updated.

The problem appears to be with the database (BMT?). The metadata is correct when displayed in the web ui and in sage. The web metadata app is what is missorting and misrepresenting the data.
