GetEpisode

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I think there's an issue with the cache. Here is what I've found:

I found that if I already have the episode downloaded (and in the cache)
and then call :

tvdbhandler.getepisode(seriesid, season, episode#, ...,...,...) 

that it will instead return something like this is supposed to return:

tvdbhandler.getepisode(seriesid, MAXSEASON, episode#, ...,...,...)

I got different results depending on the "order" clause, but it seemed to
always vary somewhat--though always wrong:

For example, I was using the shows Futurama and 30 Rock. I then called

TvdbHandler.GetSeries(idofshow, DefaultLanguage, true, false true);
that obviously returns all of the proper information and I was able to
iterate through it with a foreach loop and add each item to a listview for
example and see the proper information.

Afterwards, I call TvdbHandler.GetEpisode(id, 2, 3, DefaultOrder,
DefaultLanguage). 

What I expect to get back is a an episode equal to Season#2 Episode#3,
However what I get back is an episode equal to, in the case of futurama,
Season #6 Episode #3  or in the case of 30 Rock, Season #3 Episode #3 
where the season numbers in both cases is the Max(SeasonNumber) 

Again, if I then called TvdbHandler.GetEpisode(id, 1, 3, DefaultOrder,
DefaultLanguage) I would get back Season #6, Episode #3 (in futurama's
case) or Season #3, Episode #3 (in the case of 30 rock) [same results as
above]. Notice the episode number seems to always come back as the correct
episode #, just in the wrong season.

I tried it again later with different ordering (DVD, I believe it was) and
I got Season#1 Episode#3 in both cases.

If I called TvdbHandler.ClearCache() and then used GetEpisode( ) as listed
above, I then received the correct information.

I see this may be intended in ID #16. In my project I SOMETIMES need the whole 
series
and SOMETIMES I don't, which is why I use both GetSeries() and GetEpisode() in
different areas of my application. Occasionally use of the program will result 
in the
features overlapping.

Should be fixed with commit r105. Can you check if you run into any problems 
with the
attached version?

Fixes it, except it either adds a new problem or I've found a new problem. will 
post
