OK. First off, am I right that everything MC stores is in its local "settings" folder (I have several versions of MC side-by-sdie and they all seem to work). Or more precisely, profile.xml is the main user file that's needed and by default profile.xml entries are all in the local settings folder?

Because in looking at the tvcache.xml file in the local settings I found a problem on this tvshow. I have entires on this show near the top that look like:

Code:

<episodedetails NfoPath="F:\VideosF\TV Shows\Cheongdam dong Alice\Cheongdam dong Alice S01E01.nfo">
    <missing>False</missing>
    <title>Episode 1</title>
    <season>1</season>
    <episode>1</episode>
  </episodedetails>

and no associated tvshow element. Then farther down the file I have repeats, except these have showid elements in them:

Code:

<episodedetails NfoPath="F:\VideosF\TV Shows\Cheongdam dong Alice\Cheongdam dong Alice S01E01.nfo">
    <missing>False</missing>
    <title>Episode 1</title>
    <season>1</season>
    <episode>1</episode>
    <showid>264413</showid>
  </episodedetails>

And following this group of episodes is the tvshow entry:

Code:

<tvshow NfoPath="F:\VideosF\TV Shows\Cheongdam dong Alice\tvshow.nfo">
    <state>0</state>
    <title>Cheongdam Dong Alice</title>
    <id>264413</id>
  </tvshow>

Any idea how this happens? Also what does the tvshow setting "Fix NFO id during cache refresh" do (mine is unchecked)?

OK, I see a glitch with MC, but basically, there is no info on TheTvdb for MC to be able to populate the nfo or tvshow.xml file.

Also, "Fix NFO id is a one time use only function, from a very old version of Media Companion, where an entry in the nfo file was invalid. If you select "Fix NFO id" and refresh your TV Shows, MC goes over every nfo and fixes the bug caused by this older version. Then MC, disables this option again. Only needed to be run over the nfo's once, that's is why this setting doesn't stick on.
