Hi,
I´m using a NAS and trying to watch episodes from a full season. Everything is correctly scraped, but when I start an episode it just says "buffering". Other episodes from other shows work and even movies, If I use the file navigation and move my way in to the .avi it works as well.....
What could be the problem? I´ve cleared the cache as well.

Hit the context menu over your show that isn't working. Go to manage, and remove it. Go clear your cache. Rescrape all. The series will pop back into your TV Shows. If it is still giving issues, You may want to delete and rescrape your tvshow.nfo. Kodi is not recognizing the show or an episode in the show. You could also have a corrupt file that is freaking the system out. If all other shows work fine it's this one specifically.
Also, did you change the name of or path recently to the file? That will also cause an error.

It didn't work. I haven't tried to remove tvshow.nfo though.. What do you mean by "if all other shows work fine..."?

How about unraring the files and then scraping/watching them? I dont understand the reason for leaving them rared........

So, you're using FTP to the RAR archive of multiple episodes, and that gives you the "Buffering...." message - but navigating to an unrar-ed version and playing the AVI (over SMB/NFS or FTP?) works okay?
If that's the case, I'd immediately point a finger at having to FTP the whole RAR locally so it can be unrar-ed and then the file played... even if FTP allows some progressive playing (e.g. start playing while it's still downloading) for a normal file, I can't see that this would work on an archive, which may well need to be complete before it can be opened.
