Hi .. I have a really well maintained db on one xbmc machine that I need to port to another machine. What I did was .. export database as separate files. Then I go to the other machine and rescrape. My expectation was that the xbmc-generated .nfo files will be used and no internet-scraping will take place.
The priority should be:
1. movie.nfo
2. <filmdateiname>.nfo
3. Internet
Regrettably it fails. No way around rescraping as it seems.
I am using the release version of Dharma.
Could anyone please help me .. I really don't want to start pampering my db from scratch.
BTW .. I couldn't just port the db file since the source folders have changed.

That's exactly how it works.
* movie.nfo (aka the lazy) will be used on folder-based layouts.
* <moviename>.nfo for a unique match. works for both, file and folder-based layouts
What happened on rescraping the collection on the other XBMC installation?

Solved: XBMC 10.1 Dharma required default scraper TMDB to be present.
