Greetings,

I'm having some trouble picking up a new TV season. I usually use Media Info Plus to manage my TV show stuff, so I can pick fanart, posters, etc, but now want to scrape a new season using only XBMC.

My media is held locally. I have a single source called "TV Shows" that contains three locations:

Code:
/home/xbmc/media/tv/Normal

/home/xbmc/media/tv/Special

/home/xbmc/media/tv/dvdrips

The progam I'm trying to scrape is Eureka so this is in

Code:
/home/xbmc/media/tv/Normal/Eureka/

There's a tvshow.nfo in there created by MIP (this is a bit of it, see the pastebin for the full file)

Code:
<tvshow>

  <title>Eureka</title>

  <season>-1</season>

  <episode>0</episode>

  <displayseason>-1</displayseason>

  <displayepisode>-1</displayepisode>

  <episodeguideurl>http://www.thetvdb.com/api/1D62F2F90030C444/series/79334/all/en.zip</episodeguideurl>

  <episodeguide>http://www.thetvdb.com/api/1D62F2F90030C444/series/79334/all/en.zip</episodeguide>

  <genre>Comedy/Drama/Science-Fiction</genre>

</tvshow>

The Season episodes are inside that, so are

Code:
./Season 3/Eureka.s03e01.mkv

./Season 3/Eureka.s03e02.mkv

./Season 3/Eureka.s03e13.If You Build It.mkv

./Season 3/Eureka.s03e16.You Don't Know Jack.mkv

If I now "Scan for new content" on the Eureka node in the library, or the "Season 3" folder in the Video folders, I get an error in the log:

Code:
Asked to lookup episode [file] online, but we have no episode guide. Check your tvshow.nfo and make sure the <episodeguide> tag is in place.

The tvshow.nfo file seems to be there, and contain the requested tag.

Linux 2.6.31
XBMC 9.11 R26018

Thanks

Bad .nfo. Make sure to use proper helper apps or just remove the file and let XBMC scrape it.

actually vdrfan these look valid. we must have a bug somewhere

Interesting, I updated to

Linux 2.6.31-17
XBMC PRE-10.5 r26540

And it seems to have picked it up now.

It was actually a bug, sorry. Say "thank you spiff" as he fixed it Wink
