For some reason when you paste in a imdbdid it adds both tv show and episode actors to the episode instead of just episode actors. It will scrape and add them properly if the imbdid was already on the episode from tvdb or tmdb when first scraped but not if you add the imdbid afterwards then use the rescrape wizard to add the actors from imdb then it will add both tv and episode actors for some reason to the nfo for that episode.

    It only adds both tv show and epiosde actors to the episode if their is no imdbid already present when first adding and scraping the episode if you try to to add the imdbid and scrape actors for episode afterewards it will add the tv show actors with the episode actors

    All testing I am doing, does not add series actors to the episodes unless the option
    Don't duplicate Series actors in Episodes is unchecked.

    Sorry, unable to reproduce.
