Comment (by dekarl):

 Note to whoever picks this up (may be me).

 The episode/season information not making it from the guide to the
 recording was a design decision. It has to do with the recording storing
 the season/episode from our series database. So if you want to carry the
 season/episode from the guide to the recording it must go into different
 fields to not mess up the matching to fanart. (There are many series where
 there are multiple different correct orders of episodes, Especially when
 you start comparing multiple countries.)
 The inetref on the other hand is a field that I added myself to carry the
 correct primary key from our movie and series database. (Note the check
 for the selected grabbers)

 The target design would be to carry season/episode from the guide until
 its on the recording and display it if, and only if, the fields for
 season/episode from tvdb are empty.
