Before ever launching XBMC I prepared the .nfo files in viMediaManager, then hoped XBMC would just deal with the nfo files. No, it had to scrape the entire database again, taking up another 12 hours!!
Now I follow these instructions, set content to none, remove from library, then set back to movies. It's scraping again!! WTF!?!
Is there an accepted workflow for being able to manage your database outside of XBMC and updating XBMC's DB afterwards?
I'm thinking I should have:
Import all sources without NFO files. Big scrape ensues.
Export the library as separate NFO files when the initial import is done
Now edit these NFOs in viMediaManager
Do the refesh steps described above
Would that work? And then I assume the scraping will be skipped and re-adding these should be as quick as cleaning the library??
I'm really kind of sad I've thrown away so much time trying to get something simple to work
Or is it just a bug? I'm running Raspbmc, which I believe is running Frodo
