[REQ] Episode Offset

Hi,

I'm using MediaPortal for my mediacenter and that one gets its show info data from an online TV database.
Pilots are being released as S01E01-E02 by the scene.
The problem is that those sites think the pilot, even though its 2x the size, is just S01E01 and not both.
The "scene" doesn't follow this and releases the second episode as S01E03 while it should be S01E02 and all the subsequent episodes are all messed up.

To fix this, a post processing script could change the episode-number to one lower, so it shows up correct.
So S01E03 becomes S01E02, S01E04 becomes S01E03.. etc

Is this possible with just plain Batch or CMD files? If so, how?

anything's possible if you can define a set of rules that would apply!  I can't see how you can know?!

Well only the ones that are affected, should use this script.

The "rules" are easy: All the first season episodes should have +1 in the epnumbering.
