So, this generally works well, unless either the TVDB is temporarily unavailable (Check your internet connection or the TVDB website), or if the TVDB just doesn't have the episode info for your show yet.
The TVDB is pretty quick to add episode data though, unless you're checking for anime or very unpopular shows?
Maybe make sure that when you add files to XBMC, that the content source is set to something, so that even without a NFO file it would be able to use the content source such as the 'TVDB' scraper to get information for your shows.
I hope this helps, and thanks for the support! ^^
Hey, thx for the response. Hmm, my internet is fine, and tvdb does have the episodes. I also already set the content source..
I suspect maybe because I use pre-eden with an afp source? ( it has given me all sorts of trouble, like not being able to download artwork with artwork downloader)..
anyways, no worries, all I have to do is refresh that particular tv shows and it will update the episode's name and info..
