Trying to wrap my head around my new Firetv. Really like a lot of things about it but having some issues.
The most serious issue is I cant get my newly added movies to scan and show up in the library. Every time I click on update library while in movies it says "scanning using The movie database" and shows 0%. And then after about 20 seconds it stops and the scanning in the top corner disappears.
I tried switching from TMDB to universal but for some reason universal wont 'stick' when I choose it.
Ive searched and googled and nothing.
Any ideas? Thanks

Doing more searching it looks like the problem is with IMDB changing their API.
The Movie Database on the firetv is 3.9.3. Looks like I need 3.9.4 to fix the problem. Updating through the add on itself only offers 3.9.3.
I'll look into updating by zip.
Edit: Updated to 3.9.4 and still doesn't work.

Hmmmm. I have a fireTV and am running Kodi 17,3 and it seems to work for me. My provider is set to The Movie Database
Ah... it seems that my addons updated automatically. Lucky me.

Indeed a log is the next step.

I can't see in that log where you are scanning your library?

Lines 170-180 show the scan (it was in the previous log too, but I missed it.
It only seems to detect one movie folder (Mad Max Fury Road) - and says that and the level above haven't changed since the last scan.
How many movies should it be seeing inside smb://TOWER/Movies/ ??
