I do have a usage question. My setup is that I run MC against local folder trees of Movies and TV shows. When I am happy with all the updates I sync my local folders to my NAS, which is what XBMC has for library source via windows SMB shares. How do you see XBMC link feature used in this scenario? So far I have been unable to get the "Movie folder mapping" popup to do anything -- can't see a way to edit it to set my SMB share for XBMC.

Update: OK I figured out my problem is that I hadn't got past the general preferences yet in my setup and once I got the movies set up then I could enter my XBMC movie source path. Maybe as a suggestion you could have that window generate an error like "no MC movie folders defined" if the user tries to set Movie folder mappings without first creating MC movie folder(s) entry. So far just tested against my local install of XBMC 12.2. All my XBMCs are on windows running in portable mode (except for one Android on JB which I wonder if that can work?), and that works fine (validates) for the single instance I've tested so far.

I deleted all my .nfo files and rescraped last week using 3.5.7.1 to bring everything into line with Frodo standards but now they aren't showing. Scraping for new movies doesn't detect any either. I use the movie.nfo option (and all folders contain this file). I've tried deleting moviecache.xml and rescraping but get no new movies detected. Not sure what is going on.

I think something has gone awry with the cache load.

• Delete Cache folder.
  
• Delete Settings folder.

It's not often I find something which is worth mentioning here, so I'll keep it brief and hopefully there is an easy answer.

When I have the GUI open, I have the filter set to "date added".

I dont think the below happened in previous versions, but when I upgraded to v3.5.7.1, the "date added" filter shows that all movies were added on the same date, ie the date of the upgrade.

I'm guessing that by deleting the movie and tv cache xml's in the settings folder, the "date added" is also deleted.

As mentioned, I cant recall this happening in previous versions. This filter is quite useful to me because I use it to double check newly added movies / tv shows to ensure the correct movie has been scraped, edit sets, and change artwork prior to updating XBMC library.

Is there a better way to force MC to reload movie and tv xmls after an upgrade without deleting them first?

Thanks in advance for your help.

**edit: This gets weirder: I'd say 90% of my movies have 05 July 2013 as the date added, but these have slowly been added over the 3 years

I have a few movies with random dates, with the most recent being added on 02 July, and three form 2012....
