And I'm wondering if it instead split the title into <name><series> <episode> there would be nothing to do later on?
That would just make a bit of extra work. There is no <series> field in the metadata, and there is no need for one. The series number is the only thing of interest re: series. Also, the "Series XXX" needs to stay in <name> so that "Add Series" in the Web PVR will work. I would also bet a number of people rely on the "Series XXX" string in <name> to sort their output files. Presumably <nameshort> exists to accommodate those who don't.
Given the way split_title works, I'm not sure why the <nameshort> regex is what it is. I can't see how there would ever be a colon following the "Series XXX" string. No current tv/radio programmes produce one, anyway. That would make the fix simple.
