"Mr. & Mrs. Smith" not found as Movie title, what to do??

I have a file called "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and an entry for that exact title does indeed exist in precisely that form on TheMovieDB.org.

However, Serviio doesn't find the title (it does find all my other Hitchcock movie titles), and the entry isn't shown, or is shown as the name of the containing folder, depending on precisely what that folder name is.


What can I do to make this work?? How should that file name look for Serviio to be able to match it against the film title "Mr. & Mrs. Smith"????

The file is of course named "Mr. & Mrs. Smith.avi"...

Neither suggestion, nor the combination, yielded any improvement.


Maybe some priority could be applied;

"String1. String2. String3" could be considered to mean three words, separated by " " and the first two words actually ending in ".".
Or maybe String1..String2 could be considered to mean a word ending in dot followed by a word separator and another word.

Why "&" couldn't be just matched literally I don't understand.

I had just added an Alternate Title as Mr and Mrs Smith...
