Unfortunately some of the old code I modified is still not 100% clear to me.. so I can't really oversee if this will work. That's why I suggest, this should be extensively tested, before merging into master!
I broke backlog searching.. Should be working again.
Tested, and seems to be working fine!
Show root dirs can not be set from general config menu.
Mass editing shows now has the ability to delete root dirs as well as edit them.
Daily search no longer is restricted to just 1 week of results for searching from which now allows for replacing lower quality downloads with higher quality ones if available.
RSS Cache is updated for each provider on demand now when performing manual, failed, backlog, or daily searches.
Provider getURL and downloadResult functions now removed and replaced with ones from helpers.py to help slim the code down plus allow more better control over request sessions.
Removed TVTumbler code.
Fixed HDBits provider.
Fixed config settings that were ment to be booleans but instead where set as str or int, should help resolve random html errors.
XEM Refresh check re-coded.
NameParser code for creating show object has been changed to only attempt at the very end once its found the bestMatch result, helps on resources and performance.
Fixed charmap issues for anime show names.
Fixed issues with display show page and epCat key errors.
Fixed duplicate log messages for clearing provider caches.
Fixed issues with email notifier ep names not properly being encoded to UTF-8.
TVDB<->TVRAGE Indexer ID mapping is now performed on demand to be used when needed such as newznab providers can be searched with tvrage_id's and some will return tvrage_id's that later can be used to create show objects from for faster and more accurate name parsing, mapping is done via Trakt API calls.
Added stop event signals to schedualed tasks, SR now waits indefinate till task has been fully stopped before completing a restart or shutdown event.
NameParserCache is now persistent and stores 200 parsed results at any given time for quicker lookups and better performance, this helps maintain results between updates or shutdown/startup events.
Black and White lists for anime now only get used for anime shows as intended, performance gain for non-anime shows that dont need to load these lists.
Internal name cache now builds it self on demand when needed per show request plus checks if show is already in cache and if true exits routine to save time.
Schedualer and QueueItems classes are now a sub-class of threading.Thread and a stop threading event signal has been added to each.
If I forgot to list something it doesn't mean its not fixed so please test and report back if anything is wrong or has been corrected by this new release.
Adding functions to lookup scene season and ep info via scene absolute numbers.
We now try and create a show object from parsed release info before we consider it a valid parsed result to insure we even have the show in our show list, also used to validate anime releases.
Misc bug fixes here and there.
Fixed anime show list splitter.
Added check for anime shows and providers so we don't perform searches with a provider that doesn't support the type of show genre we are searching.
Search mode allows you to choose season packs only or episodes only which controls how backlogs search for data.
Search fallback if selected will attempt a 2nd search this time using the alternative search mode to see if it can get results if the previous attempt failed.
Provider settings are now read and stored dynamically instead of always having to retrieve them by there static names, this will allow for dropping in new provider modules easier to intergrate with existing options already present.
Fixed search code to not perform dupe searches by mistake.
Cache stores a list of shows we have rejected so that next time around we don't have to process them to know we don't like em.
Removed multi-threading as it was more problems then usefull for now.
Added in match & snatch, any quality from initial quality settings gets downloaded first and does not continue searching, if archive qualities exist it'll stop once it hits max quality from said list.
Fixed issues with snatching air-by-date shows.
Fixed issues with naming patterns.
Fixed issues with invalid literals.
Fixed issues with country codes missing and causing web errors.
Fixed so many issues I can't write them all done ... :)

- Added option "prefer_episode_releases" to config.ini. If a complete season of a show is added to the backlog this option will make sickbeard prefer single episode releases for that season over a comlete season release.
Backport of 1ec7c61023 into dev branch
Manual and Backlog searches now gather all the search results FIRST then loop through them filtering the bad ones out, this should improve overall speed of searching for downloads.
Fixed issues with local SB cache.
Fixed issues with sports naming patterns, we no longer treat sports as a airdate show and have created custom regex's to aid in finding sports related shows.
Added ignore/required words option to bet set individually for each show.
Fixed issue with global ignore words not properly matching against releases.
Fixed issue with
