Incorrect video names and thumbnails, resetting cache makes it worse. #5536

I noticed recently that the episode names and thumbnail for the new Doctor Who was incorrect, it was showing from the 1963 version and not 2023 so there may be an issue with the API getting the correct metadata. It does not help that they reset the series number for the new Doctor instead of continuing on.

On the forum someone is having a similar problem and they tried to reset the cache but only made it worse.

I tried this and the same happened to me and seems to mix up the series name and episode from different shows.

For example S2E12 of Andor it is looking up Severance S2E12 which does not exist

This may be related to #4820 and #4854

Resetting the cache also makes the media library appear empty and rescanning does not fix it, I had to delete the database.
Even after that only some episode names would show and the rest just episode 1 etc
