Bug Files being scanned into VIDEO_TS.IFO
#1
Video 
Hi,

I run into an interesting problem. I have a Linux machine that runs a webserver, and within the webserver folder and subsequent sub-folders are my movies, tv shows etc. When I load content, it will be via Web Server Directory, "http://machine_ip" and then, the remote path, "Movies" in this case. When it comes to scraping, the content is identified as you have Movie Name (Year).file_format and that works fine except that instead of recognizing the extension of the file as avi or mkv or mp4, everything ends up being Movie_Name/VIDEO_TS.IFO

I'm either guessing there is a bug with the scraper or database tool cause it does that for all files.

Any ideas?

Thanks

My guess is your webserver responds to a Stat() request with "yup, I have that file" when you don't. The stacking routine checks for VIDEO_TS.IFO file via a Stat() and if it exists, it'll stack down the folder.
