Smarter "Series" scan

Guys, the app is amazing, so why not benefit from the smarts already implement in it.
It already does great job parsing files for series to get name, season and episode number.
But it is very weird that if it cannot fully match metadata using "online metadata sources", then instead of using the carefully crafted info it could gather itself, it just ignores all of it, not adding episodes to series at all

Examples:
2012-11-19 20:53:57,356 WARN [LibraryManager] Cannot read metadata of file D:\Downloads\Castle\Castle.S05E07.720p.mkv via extractor ONLINE_VIDEO_SOURCES. Message: Cannot retrieve episode details (series = 82607, season = 5, episode = 7), file not found
2012-11-19 20:55:00,603 WARN [OnlineVideoSourcesMetadataExtractor] Online metadata search returned no results for file It.is.Always.Sunny.in.Philadelphia.S02E02.avi [VideoDescription [type=EPISODE, names=[it is always sunny in philadelphia, it is always sunny in philadelphia s02], year=null, season=2, episode=2]]

And Result is... none of them in "Series" :(

I believe that even having "It.is.Always.Sunny.in.Philadelphia"/"Season 2"/"Episode 2" in "Series" is way much better than not having it there at all.

Don't you agree that structuring library is more important than having 100% pretty names?
I, for one, hate doing that manually :)

So, please please please consider using the info you already have if online lookup fails.
