Hello. i have a question about non index movies.
I can remember in the older versions of xbmc that u can get a list of files [movies] that couldn't be recognize. this was mostly due to unclear file names. Now my question is. Where in Frodo/gotham can i find this list again.
Hopefully somebody knows what i mean.

The Video Button file mode will show files not yet scraped. Entire folders can be excluded from scans. Some Skins allow folders/drives outside designated normal sources and are hidden from scrapes.

There's a missing movies add-on that you can install.

Go to your file list and add them manually. There's an option for that when scraping single movies: it shows you a list of suggestions when no match is found, and to the side of that list is a button 'manual'.

If you have a keyboard, just go to the movie, highlight it and press I. You will get the info. Hit refresh and from there you should be able to go to the list as stated by Paynemaster. If your movie doesn't show in the list, you maybe able to enter the name manually. Check the spelling. If the movie is there just select it and it's done.

I have noticed movies (anything, actually) are not auto-scraping with Kodi. I can add video sources, manually select individual video files, and then pull the info which adds the properly scraped movie to XBMC's library.

If you right-click on the file, choose "Movie Information," do you get a list of movies? If you see your movie on the list, choose it and it should scrape properly. This assumes you have already chosen the correct directory content category for the file location, in this case "Movies."
