This usually happens when the files aren't named in fashion XBMC can recognize.
You typically want to have the filenames contain numbering of the form S01E01, S01E02, etc. or 1x01, 1x02, etc.
How are your files named?

Did you happen to move or rename the files and/or directory for the show after it had been previously scanned into the library?

artafael: can XBMC scrape TV shows on ISOs out of the box or does this require additional configuration?

Hi sorry its the same problem, but after a few hours last night trying to solve it, it is this as drpizznock asked can xbmc work with tv series on .iso format as nearly all my files are in .iso format ?
Thanks

I believe it can, as long as the filename complies with the naming convention. However, if your ISO file contains multiple episodes, it may present a bit of challenge as far as matching the filename to what's in TVDB, since their entries are organized by individually numbered seasons/episodes. I recall reading a thread a few weeks (or was it months?) back that discussed different approaches to handling ISOs containing multiple episodes of TV shows, so you may want to search for it.

band of brothers.s01e01e02.iso
band of brothers.s01e03e04.iso
band of brothers.s01e05e06.iso
band of brothers.s01e07e08.iso
band of brothers.s01e09e10.iso
