I'll start with the tl;dr. Scroll down if you want a more detailed description of what's going on.
TL;DR
These folders (each containing only a single MKV with the same name as the folder) yield inconsistent results when adding to my library.
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E02.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E11.INTERNAL.720p.HDTV.x264-KILLERS
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E12.REPACK.PROPER.720p.HDTV.x264-FLEET
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E13.720p.HDTV.x264-KILLERS
Does NOT work
The episodes are not added if they are in the S02 subfolder.

The following releases are omitted from the library:
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E02.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION
- Youre.the.Worst.S02E11.INTERNAL.720p.HDTV.x264-KILLERS

- Youre.the.Worst.S02E13.720p.HDTV.x264-KILLERS
But if I pull those 4 episodes out of the S02 subfolder and stick them in the root folder for the show, they are added just fine, e.g.
/volume1/videos/tv/Youre.the.Worst.S01-S03.720p.HDTV.x264-SCENE

Summation
Ostensibly this seems like it might be a bug. I've racked my brain trying to figure out why sibling folders that follow the exact same naming conventions are added. At first I thought maybe there was some sort of hidden escape character in the path or something that I wasn't noticing, but that theory is alleviated when I move the problematic episodes to series' root folder. I thought maybe it's because of the INTERNAL
and REPACK.PROPER
designations, but that doesn't explain why episode 10 is added just fine or why episodes 2 and 13 are omitted; plus, again, it's inconsistent with the behavior when the episodes are in the series' root folder. It's also odd that only S02 is affected and not S01 or S03.
Anyone have any ideas?
