I notice how many videos I have under files that don't show up at all under movies and TV shows. Under files, none has artwork.Īll of this applies in other cases as well. "xxxHOLiC The Movie: A Midsummer Night's Dream (2005)". Under Files / TV shows, it finds all, none has artwork.ĥ. Now, when I set it up exactly like this (folder names in quotation marks, a parsing.nfo file with the link) I get the following results: are considered season 1 and 2, while 3 is a separate show. It exists as TV shows and movies, in various seasons, and the TV show exists as anime and as real-life TV show. Let me use an example, the franchise "xxxHolic". I read the FAQ / linked-to helper threads and tried a lot. Simple stuff is fine, but as soon as there are multiple similarly named items, the scraper does not catch the data correctly. I cannot get themoviedb scraper to work reliably. The only difference I can tell is the "This directory contains" field is set to Movies instead of TV Shows.Ĭan anyone help me understand why Kodi is ignoring the root files in the TV folders?
Movie folders are setup the same way and have no issue scraping movies both in the root and in sub-folders. nfo files are in UTP-8 or ANSI format and simply contain IMDB and/or TheMovieDB links. TheMovieDB and TVDB have no issues populating the content in the sub-folders but any files in the root TV-G folder are ignored.

Log File will be here on other German Forum I´m very confused because i have testet on three Platforms and many ways. NameOfTVShow/Season 01/S01E01 NameOfEpisodeĪll Files will be have their own directory and stored correctly.
On Kodi i use local information in Scraper. I scraped is Manually with MediaElch and save an nfo file. The Structure of the al Files will be written correctly by the App MediaElch. I have seen that a second TV Show will be use a correct Stored TV Show From Database before. The TV-Show Arrow will be fine and all OK but the TV Show Castle will habe a new second TV Show in it? Then i will actualize the Database the i will surprised? I remove the TV-Show Arrow from Database but not from Disk. TV-Shows on the MySQL Database will be a big Problem, because there will be two different TV-Shows in one.Įxample: The TV Show Arrow contains the TV Show Arrow and Castle, The TV Thow Dinotopia contains Dinotopia and X Files, and so on. Using Movies with MySQL on NAS will be nit a problem and work fine.
