Hi,

I'm running OSMC on Raspberry Pi 3.

I've tried following the wiki and some explanations found online for naming series, but no matter what I try it just doesn't show up in the library. The best I've been able to do is to get 3 episodes of Rick and Morty to show under a different name (some old series called Hi5---go figure why).

So I kindly request for guidance here.

As for Rick an Morty, this is the latest configuration I tried

Code:

Rick and Morty
  L Rick and Morty Season 1
       L Rick and Morty_S01E01 Pilot (uncensored)
       L Rick and Morty_S01E02 Lawnmower Dog (uncensored)
       L Rick and Morty_S01E03 Anatomy Park (uncensored)

etc.

Thanks for helping out here. Peace out.

Can you grab a debug log (wiki) of a failed scrape, upload it to PasteBin and supply the link here.

What you have seems to agree with thetvdb.com entry for the show. Maybe also confirm you have the content type set as TV shows? Your entry for anatomy park is wrong, but I guess that's maybe a typo?

Hi,

Yes the episode 3 was a typo.

I don't feel confident sharing the entire log for privacy reasons. However, below is the bit that concerns the example:

What do you mean by setting the content as TV Show?

[DarrenHill]

You've got the folder content set as movies, which is why it isn't picking it up as Rick and Morty is a TV show.

Go to the folder in the files view, access its context menu (right click or long press usually) and in there change the content from movies to TV shows. Then rescan using the correct scraper this time and it should work.

[jesuisbenjamin]

Um okay, won't that mess up my movies then?

Does that mean I need a separate folder for movies and for TV shows?

[DarrenHill]

Yes, movies and TV shows need to be in seperate folders (or folder trees). I think it does say that in the wiki.

Basically the scraper used (at least by default) for Movies is different from the one used for TV shows. They pull on different databases with different content specific for the type, hence why you're having issues as you're trying to scrape a TV show with the movies database which obviously doesn't contain it.

Look in the official repo - there are apparently universal scrapers in there, but whether they would do everything I have no idea as I just use the default two scrapers myself and have my source folders split by type.

[jesuisbenjamin]

I totally missed the separate folder / content part on the wiki. Thanks man.
