The picture for 'folder.jpg' is just a copy of the thumbnail .tbn file with a different name. If the thumbnail is there, but folder.jpg isn't, there is something going wrong in MC.

What version of XBMC are you using? Is there a chance there is a residual setting in advancedsettings.xml? Maybe PM me with a zip of the files of a single show that is giving you problems (preferably with no large files!) so I can make sure everything is in order. I also assume you are using a late copy of Media Companion too!
I can confirm:
# Media Companion has all the "download" options checked in preferences
# I can see the fanart.jpg, a folder.jpg, season**.tbn files
From a Media Companion point of view, it shows "Season 1", "Season 2" and "Season 3" each with there own posters. So I think Media Companion is correct. I just think its XBMC doing something weird.

You're right. I hope it gets fixed. Mostly so that in explorer, the movies folder looks a bit prettier.

Quick question, Is there currently support for TV shows spread across multiple drives?
i.e.
E:\Tv Programs\The Simpsons\Season 2\
X:\Tv Programs\The Simpsons\Season 3\
I have tested and assuming there isn't at this stage, unless i am missing a setting somewhere.
If there isn't support, i will add a feature request with more detail on codeplex.
Cheers

Not sure if this was requested yet, but it would be really nice if there was an easy way to select multiple fanart images and save them into extrafanart folder so XBMC skins like Aeon MQ3 could use those for random fanart.
Would be appreciated!
Thanks!

This can be done with the latest beta release, MC 3.435b.
Movies need to be in individual folders, then under movie preferences select 'All Movies are in Folders (Allows Extrathumbs)'

I get this message for all tv episodes that I added recently. I tried the last to versions of media companion. I can find the episodes on the website of the tvdb without problems.

Can MC be setup to "auto-scan" movie folders? I've been using media center master and it has a functionality whereby it monitors the movie folders and auto-scrapes when you add a new file or folder. Pretty slick, but the scraping leaves a bit to be desired. MC seems to have phenomenal scraping capability and flexibility but I just can't seem to see if there is a way to auto-scrape.

We are busy trying to fix a few pressing issues at the moment, but once that is done, I am sure there would be some scope for some new features, and I think there is some potential for more automation!
I suggest you add a feature (um, issue; a dev has to change it to a feature) at the Media Companion site on CodePlex so we can keep track when it comes time to work on features!
Wonderful program. Thanks billyas2000
