Full Version: Library lookup - totally wrong...why?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
So I turned on IMDB TV lookup on my video collection. About 1100 TV Shows, each show in a seperate folder under a main folder.

I told it to scan at the main level. A few things...

Every time I go back into settings, the options I turned on are now off and I did hit OK after setting.

It scanned my library and added 4 shows NONE OF WHICH I HAVE. What happenned to 1100+ of them?
Without a log, how are we to know? PEBKAC is my guess.
The XBMC log?

I finally got the music to scan, contect menu on the top folder 'scan content to library'

But the Video is not scanning, no matter what I do.

Please tell me what I need to do to force a full scan of a top-level video folder...

Then I'll get the log from it
See my signature and click on that links. The online manual will tell you how to scan and the others about properly reporting a problem.

Btw, use thetvdb.com scraper for tvshows.

I figured this one out

I had 1 tv show per folder and tried to link 2 folders up, so it was pulling the folder name and finding something close.

I changed it to link at the folder right above the tv show folders and it works fine.
