I am one of those strange people who enjoy documentaries. Because they come from many sources, I created a "TV Show" called Documentaries on my Kodi install. This required me to create some custom nfo files so they would be added properly to my library. They scrape into the "Documentaries" tv show fine, but some information does not seem to scrape. Data such as "Date Aired" and "Credits" are not scraped and not displayed by Kodi. The following is an example of the text in the nfo files that I use.

<episodedetails>
<title>Byzantium: A Tale of Three Cities Part 1</title>
<rating></rating>
<season>3</season>
<episode>17</episode>
<plot>Simon uncovers the city's ancient Greek roots, maps its transformation into the imperial capital of a Christian Empire by Emperor Constantine the Great and reveals how ecclesiastical clashes forced Eastern and Western Churches apart.</plot>
<runtime>59 min</runtime>
<credits>BBC (UK)</credits>
<director></director>
<aired>2013</aired>
</episodedetails>

What changes should I make to be able to get this information displayed? Thank you all for your help in advance, it is greatly appreciated!

For aired date, you need:

Code:

<aired>2007-09-24</aired>

Not sure why you had to do that.. Didn't TVDB pick it up?

http://thetvdb.com/?tab=seasonall&id=275963&lid=7

All you need is to name the video file properly with http://kodi.wiki/view/Naming_video_files/TV_shows

Unless I misunderstood what you are trying to do?

Thanks! I will change the nfo files accordingly.

I tend too pool all of my documentaries into one category. They are not listed this way on the TVDB. That is why I created the custom nfo files.
