Hi Everyone,

I had installed 3 version of XBMC and everything is results the same. I will give you the hardware infos.

- Hardware which is working pretty good:
ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX
FX8150 8 cores 3.6GHZ
KINGSTON HYPER-X 8 GB DDR3 1333
INTEL SSD 120GB
ATI RADEON HD3450

- When i've add movies, everything is added pretty well with TVMB the default movie scrapper.

- I had over 40 series in my D-LINK DNS320 NAS, i had only 1 series that XBMC added well on 40, it's Under The Dome.

If i set the language to english, and with any of default serie scrapper, nothing is added well. Still has ONLY 'Under The Dome' serie is added. All others are not added.

I had configured XBOX in default english, with english cover, nothing is added. I had record in debut mode the log infos for any help, will be appreciated. Im disapeer.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.
can you tell us how you have the RV Shows organised?, like folder structure and filenames?
A good way to force XMBC pick the right show is by creating a 'tvshow.nfo' file in the show's folder with just the url from thetvdb.com that points to the show. For "under the dome" that would be:

Code:
http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=264492&lid=7

This way it doesn't matter how the files are named although you still need to use the proper format for episodes.
Episodes are located in:

SMB://DNS320/SERIES/*.*

Everything is located in an D-LINK Nas Server on an Workgroup.

Movies are all in the same server, and added properly.

Can you help me, if XBMC accept dot in filename? Did i need to add the episode name in the filename?

How it suppose to be formated so XBMC can detect it properly? "Folder Name" and "File Nam.ext"

THanks for your reply!

Another thing, i saw an Warning in the log file of XBMC regarding the "timezone" is not correct, here the info:
WARNING: CSettingString: unknown options filler "timezones" of "locale.timezone"

Did that error can cause something to XBMC.

My timezone are set to French Canada; Multingual Canada.

ive put an tvshow.nfo with the link for the serie:
http://thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seriesid=...304&lid=17

And XBMC not recognized the serie. He just found Under The Dome again.

Here the file structure of one of the series.
PLEASE CHECK MY SNAPSHOTS of file structure.

And this one is added pretty well "Under The Dome"

Your structure is wrong. The correct structure is detailed in the wiki.
I just resolved by myself.

Question: Where is the Wiki?

I've resolved by rename the Folder name ex:

Suits (Saison1)
for
Suits [French] (Saison1)

and everything come up no problem!

Thanks for letting me the found the solution by asking file structure.

There's even a handy link to the wiki at the top of forum alongside the Blog, Download, & Bugtracker links.
