Ok, I have a dedicated HTPC.
I am using the videoextras addon.
However before I started using this addon I had tons of extras for a few tv shows that I ripped. Specifically The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad.
So many extras that I just created there own shows for them titled The Simpsons Extras and so fourth. Split them up in seasons just like a regular tv show. Created the nfo and artwork with Ember Media Manager just like I do with everything else.
These all worked fine but before I started using the videoextras addon a week or so ago I did a clean install. Now XBMC will not recognize these folders when it scans. I also did a similar thing with Lord of the Rings. I made a separate movie titled Lord of the Rings Extras and also created an 'extras' sub folder... it does not scan these files either.
Now then... I have also done a clean install on another pc on my network. Using the same files on the HTPC it scans everything into the library/
So this means the nfo's and files and folder structure are fine.
Can't figure out why it will not pick these up on my HTPC
I have linked the log files from both pc's.
On the one that works I did a fresh scan of the tv folder and it picks them all up.
On the HTPC that is not working I already had the tv shows in the database and had it scan for new content. I even tried add a single folder of one the extra tv shows and that did not work. I can view and watch these files from the file manager but they wont add to the library.
