I can confirm this issue remains in 1.3.0.12.

Code:

Title: Error

I did some more experimenting and I can't get it to work no matter what combination of settings I use. I double checked what is happening and it looks like TV shows are working fine, it only affects movies. I get that error for every movie in my library. I have a flat library structure, so all the movies, nfo's, posters and fanart are all together in the same folder rather than each individual movie and associated files being in their own folders. This setup has worked for me for a long time and continues to work under EMM 1.3.0.9 and XBMC 12.1. Something is being read by EMM because the movie names are correct rather than just file names and the scraped info is actually there if I double-click on any entry, but EMM is not registering any information existing in the main list. I also did a test re-scrape on an existing movie and confirmed the files themselves are actually being updated on my server but EMM still throws that same error and still will not register any info or posters/fanart as existing, even though it just successfully scraped them. Anything that can be done to fix this would be greatly appreciated, mainly just because I'm too lazy to readily put in the time to rearrange everything. Thanks in advance!

Please upload your Settings.xml and AdvancedSettings.xml with your standard setting and upload a screenshot of the movie folder.

Here is a screenshot of the movie list from EMM, Screenshot and from the folder the movies are stored in Screenshot. In the EMM screenshot you can see this was a first time scrape on a fresh install of EMM. The metadata info is there, but the movies list does not register anything existing. The poster and fanart tabs also don't show anything. If I do a manual rescrape then the files on the server will be updated but EMM still throws that same error and still will not register the different things existing.

Here is the settings file Settings.xml, there does not seem to be an Advanced Settings file being generated right now by 1.3.0.12. I have also included the Settings.xml and AdvancedSettings.xml files from the working 1.3.0.9 install I have now.

I finally seem to have figured this out. After moving my movies around all over the place to try to find out what is happening, it seems as though there is a bug in 1.3.0.10+ (although this same bug seems to affect 1.3.0.9 in the Bulk File Renamer also) where it will not work if the movies are stored at the root of the drive letter. If I put the files into one or more sub folders first things work fine.

Example:

Does not work:

X:\Movie1.mp4
X:\Movie2.mp4
X:\Movie3.mp4

Works:

X:\Movies\Movie1.mp4
X:\Movies\Movie2.mp4
X:\Movies\Movie3.mp4

Also works:

X:\Movie1\Movie1.mp4
X:\Movie2\Movie2.mp4
X:\Movie3\Movie3.mp4

While it is true if I had stored all my movies in individual folders as previously suggested I wouldn't have had any problems, I am a bit stuck now because the "Sort Files Into Folders" function doesn't work under my old setup anyway. For now I have just moved them into a single subfolder like in the second example, but this still seems like a bug that might want to be addressed.
