I already have this working with actor thumbs using a network share. (Is there a way to have the ensure TV shows and Movies share the same actor thumb? I have dupes...)

In KODI I use the 'Local Info' scraper and it is loading all my NFO files without issue.

My problem is that when I open an NFO and check out the various tags, not all are using the local URL.
All of the poster thumbs point to TMDB, fanart points to tbdb and trailer points to youtube.
I have all of these resources already downloaded, but Media Companion does not seem to write the NFO using the local file address.

It may help to explain using a specific example:
Movie: Almost Famous (2000)
Location: nfs://192.168.2.5/data/videos/movies/Almost Famous (2000)/Almost Famous (2000).mkv
Seemingly 'non-local' info in NFO file:

xml:

<trailer>plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&amp;videoid=qk0XnyrENrE</trailer>

I do have Almost Famous (2000)-poster.jpg Almost Famous (2000)-trailer.mp4, extrafanart and extrathumbs in my folder too.

Maybe I am just misunderstanding these tags. I just want my library and all the extras to be completely local, that's all.
I do notice that when I play the trailer, it is the local file that is being played and not going through youtube. (On that note, it would be cool, if we could specify what trailer gets downloaded sometimes as the one that got downloaded in this case is some dumb clip with the director giving an intro...)

Love the program.

BTW....Not a complaint but would love to see 3D movies excluded as a duplicate one day.

Just to be clear...

Say you have....

Wolverine & Wolverine 3d they show up as duplicates.

Hope this helps.

Shouldn't the <basepath></basepath> that ends up in the resulting XML be the path that KODI should be looking for and not what MC looks for?
I have defined the KODI path in the Export tab of MC and in the Export tool in MC, but I end up with the MC path in the XML.
I suppose this would be fine if all my KODI boxes were Windows and had shares mapped with drive letters, but they aren't and as such, I use a NFS path for all KODIs on my network.

TL;DR: exported XML points to MC's paths instead of defined KODI path.

• Get every thing 'just right' in MC
  
• Export to single file
  
• Import in KODI and let it update the MySQL database
  
• Use MC w/ XBMC Link to update thereafter.

Thanks. 

 It's set on wiki right now.

Is it possible to scrape single entries for Music Videos?

Thank you. 

Thanks, will check later today on scraping that artist.

As for single entries, do you mean rescrape? or Drag and drop?

 Yeah, basically rescraping. NFO's have been generated already for all of my videos even if the data is incomplete.
So with the updated software I'd like to be able to highlight specific videos and have it rescrape.
If I right click there is no option for this... there is a 'rescrape specific' but it's grayed out.
So as of right now the update doesn't really do me any good unless I start over... which I don't want to do as I've many edited hundreds of these already.

On another note when it comes to grabbing screen shots from a video some form of scroll bar to scan the video would be awesome instead of changing the seconds setting and hoping for something good.

Thanks for your time!
