Trakt gets it's episode information from TVDB and there it's according to FOX (http://www.fox.com/americandad/recaps/season-9/episode-19) and not the scene naming. You would have to name them like this: http://thexem.de/xem/show/93.

Or implement a way to fetch the info from TVRage's page (http://www.tvrage.com/American_Dad/episode_list/all) or better yet, their API (http://services.tvrage.com/feeds/episode_list.php?sid=2594) instead of TheTVDB

@BrutuZ Certain information already comes from TVRage but they are missing alot of shows so it wouldn't make sense to take the listings from there. Another comon complaint are the ones for anime since long running shows get split at TVDB to their actual seasons. That said, fixes for this should come with the new TVDB site but it's been quiet on that front (except for one mod hinting at it recently). I'm just a user but feel free to voice it @http://support.trakt.tv though.

I didn't mean completely replace TVDB with TVRage, just on shows that have problems/conflicts like this one.
Whether the data comes from TVDB, TVRage, FOX.com or Thexem.de doesn't really seems to make a difference, as long as the scrobbles don't get all mixed up as it happens currently.

It could be just a problem with the Trakt plugin for Plex though, since I've set the server to fetch data for this specific show from TVRage in order to avoid mismatches (everything else defaults to TVDB and work just fine) I figured the plugin should match the episodes like it too. I'll investigate further on that and maybe drop a suggestion on the GitHub =)
