I've tried several variations on the pilot episode of the Battlestar Galactica Miniseries.

Per: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=95822
And: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=167038

I've been trying combinations of names listed within these threads including the year 2003 and with parentheses (2003), with periods '.' and with spaces ' ', placing the year at the end of the name and in the middles of the name.

I have also tried placing the video file in the root of the show's folder as well as in a 'Season 0' folder. All still without luck.

This is the TVDB site of the correct episode: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/battlesta...des/117847

When trying to directly add the content through the video source browser, I get an error similar to: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=309937

I'm not sure what to make of that error. I don't understand the advice
Quote:it was a source setting problem in Kodi, Kodi was searching for a TV Series called "TV Series".
well enough to fix the problem if it is a problem.

Here is my log: https://paste.kodi.tv/ipesolanek

I replicated trying to update the library in TV shows and directly adding the episode from the video->source and getting the error I mentioned. Because of the error and permutations on naming I've attempted, I'm not sure what to do next. Thanks in advance for any help.

Nope, none of those are your problem. This is your problem... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=323588

Did you already have Battlestar in your library and you are simply adding some additional episodes?

Simply Refresh the TV Show (not the episodes) to download the new episodeguide URL. Then scan for new content to add the additional episodes.

Thank you!

And no, I was starting from scratch with a test rip. Also, because I wasn't deeply familiar with the series I had gotten confused why the first episode was an hour and a half vs. the actual 45 minute '33'. I'd forgotten about the miniseries.

If it wasn't in your library already, I wonder where the v1 API link came from. Are you using NFO Files? If yes, then delete them as they are outdated.

Were you able to scan the show to the library?

Yep. Following the thread instructions worked perfectly.

For the record, I did try to get the first pilot episode in and the scraper detected it as one of the 1978 episodes. I had trouble trying to get the information to update to 2003, so I removed it from the library. That may be where it came from, possibly.
