So I have XBMC installed on a box with Ubuntu 10.04 running on it and I was trying to get the IMDb scrapers working. The problem is all of my movie files are not being added to video -library and in order to get the imdb info I have to go one by one through my movie files and click get movie information and then it pulls the imdb info. Is there any way to do this that isn't as time consuming. any help is greatly appreciated.
Mark the Video directory in file mode and choose "Scan for new content".
well thats the thing. all of the video files are already added in file mode but they wont show up in library mode
Depending on the file structure, did you configure correctly? "Use folder names for lookups" for example?
A look at the log file (/home/xbmc/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log) could also be useful.
I just added them one by one. It took some time but it worked. It will be a lot easier when I just am adding a couple files at a time as opposed to going through my whole library. Thanks for the help though.
