Wondering if you might be able to help with something. I started using Sonarr a while ago to help with my media collection (it searches for, pulls, renames, and moves the files automatically - kinda like Sickbeard - and creates an .nfo file per epidode). Now, when I refresh my TV Collection in MC, some shows will show as UN-Verified. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason which show is marked as such as it varies with each refresh - shows with new episodes, locked shows, shows that have no episodes - I mean it really seems to be random.

It's more of an annoyance than anything, but do you have any idea as to how i can prevent it? I get that MC is reading .nfo's created by another application, but aren't the files kind of standardized to be read by KODI? Any suggestions would be welcome!!

This is due to MC adding a tag in the nfo just for Media Companion in the tvshow.nfo file.

Code:

<state>0</state>

This is so MC can state if the Show i valid, un-verified or Locked.

This field is ignored by Kodi, so never been an issue.

But, this tag is not in the episode nfo, so if Sonarr is changing TV series to Un-Verified, then it is re-writing the tvshow.nfo with each added episode, which would remove the <state> tag.. That's bizarre.

I think I looked at Sonarr, but decided on Sickrage instead. Still yet to have Sickrage replace Sickbeard....
