Add shows and episodes

So I’m new to the TVST app which correlates to Trakt and I’m wondering how to add new shows and episodes on existing shows.
Thanks!

To create new episodes you need to go to the TMDB page of the show and add the episodes there. Please follow their guidelines when doing so.
After the episodes are on TMDB, we can refresh the page after a few hours and the episodes will show up.

To add new shows here, you can import them. There is an option for that in the footer of the website, you just need their TMDB ID to do that.

Thanks. I’m familiar with TVDB. What if the shows and episodes are in TMDB but not carrying over to the Trakt database?

You can report the show in the website and I can take a look.
Just click in the ‘Report’ button. You can find it on any movie, show, season and episode page.

Some shows are still using TVDB as it’s datasource, some others might be bugged, so the best way is to report so I can have a look.

As a follow up to adding shows in TMDB, where does it allow you to add or edit start times for the shows? I know TVDB has that option.

TMDB doesn’t have that option, so we still get that data from TVDB and, on some cases, TVmaze.
You can also report the show and I can manually change the main airtime and any individual episode that might have aired on a different time. Please, include the timezone when reporting.

EDIT: Also, I moved your topic to the ‘Questions & Help’ category, to keep things organized.

Thanks. So if TVDB is updated with correct time it will carry over to Trakt?

There are multiple shows that have incorrect start times. If TVDB updates like you said, I’ll try there first.

Yes, they should update. If they don’t, just report and I can take a look.
Some shows that air on streaming services have different rules for dates on TMDB and TVDB (since they air too close to midnight and might air on different days because of timezones) so they might show up incorrectly because of that and need to be manually fixed.
