Hello there
I've been reading all the wikis and tried to follow the post for almost 5 hours know and I don't seem to be able to get it to work
1.) I do have the same TV Show (Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds) which I'm trying to add to my TV Show Library. I found the fanart and poster stuff on the TVDB database posted here and they are placed in the folder.
- so far I managed at least that the folder "Richard Hammond's Invisible World" shows up under TV Shows.
- The problem is that this folder is empty :mad:
- I've created the following nfo called "tvshow.nfo" after following the guides here:
Code:

- Additionally I've created 3 nfo files for the 3 episodes names like the movie: Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds S01E01 [1080p].nfo / Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds S01E02 [1080p].nfo / Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds S01E03 [1080p].nfo

- All this stuff is under the path K:\TV-Shows\Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds [1080p]
I desperately need the advice of you guys what I'm doing wrong here
. I've tried renaming the file, I've tried to scrape it somehow automatically, all of it failed.
2.) Additionally I ran into another problem which is actually really similar to the first problem:
- I have several IMAX movies from different years (all scrapable through IMDB) in a folder under the following path: K:\TV-Shows\IMAX Documentary [1080p]
- All Movies are storred within the same folder with custom season and episode numbers (I thougth this would work)
Example (I have 7 of those movies, this would be my personal episode 7):
Code:
IMAX - Volcanoes of the Deep Sea S01E07 [1080p]-fanart.jpg
IMAX - Volcanoes of the Deep Sea S01E07 [1080p].tbn
IMAX - Volcanoes of the Deep Sea S01E07 [1080p].nfo
IMAX - Volcanoes of the Deep Sea S01E07 [1080p].mkv
- The nfo file looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

- The whole folder is not being scraped at all. I don't have a tvshow.nfo created for it yet since I haven't even figured out how I can get the "real" TV Show mentioned under 1.) to work.
- I know I could simply let them scrape as individual "Movies" and it would work.... but I don't want that, I'd like it to display under TV-Shows in a folder where all of them are accessible through the library.
It would be great if somebody could point out what I do wrong here. Greatly appreciated!
