Hi all,
I'm recording some programs off TV that are not strictly series or have season/episode numbers so I'm not looking to use vdb but instead use the info from the EPG and want to go about creating the NFO files to get them into the library, but I'm a bit confused with the 'tvshow.nfo' format.
The sample 'tvshow.nfo' seems to have a combined TV Show detail and also has Episode details, so is it a case that I would need to create this file, and then append each new episode to this single .NFO? Or is there an option to do a file-for-each-episode.nfo?

If I include the date in the filename, is there any other settings needed to pick up and sort files by date? (ie; the date wont match tvdb or any specific aired date, just something for me to recognise which is which).

Thanks,
Tom

You would want to create a separate .nfo for each episode/file.

Code:
<tvshow>

    <title>Insert your title here</title>

     <premiered>2014-02-11</premiered>

</tvshow>

I believe the above would work for you.

Edit:

You might want to check out the date added tag as well...

Code:
<dateadded>2013-01-28 23:33:03</dateadded>
