changing folder name leaves me with 2 "movies" in xbmc
#1
hi i was just wondering if this is the way that xbmc works or if there is a workaround for this.

i wanna be able to press update library and for xbmc to be able to detect if i changed the name of the folder and/or deleted and folder/movie.
since both "movies" in xbmc have the same file path. shouldn't it be smart enough to not show same "movie" twice

btw, im using folder name for metadata lookup.

It is as long as it is the identical path. It's not though as you've renamed it. Clean library will remove the broken one assuming that the filepath no longer exists.

you could adjust your advancedsettings.xml:
Code:
<videolibrary>
    <cleanonupdate>true</cleanonupdate>
</videolibrary>
