'Extras' folders still persisting but I noticed in the General section some Media Images options which I have unchecked. If it's still a problem I'll send on the config.xml.
- extras folder, used for media images for movies, shows and tunes.. should only be created if media images are enabled in the config. if this is not the case, please note what area and post your config.xml to pastebin.
fekker Wrote:Rescan and show or season levelIt seems you're using an SQLite database already so I assumed it must've been easy. Oh well. I assume you backed yourself into a corner with the original database design (if so, I've been there too).
- this one is trickey and basically would require that I rewrite all of the show handlers and store every possible known show in memory so that new episodes can be added.
fekker Wrote:I think that the "update shows" function covers this option, it should not take more then a few seconds to complete.. if it's taking a long time, make sure you don't have "overwrite episode nfo" enabled in the settings.This is OK for me. The TV rescan .exe included in the latest test build, has it been covered how that works? Is it better to use this if you're just adding episodes?
I'm still having trouble with new episodes not appearing on some shows only. In the instance of one show, episode 1 is there, episode 2 did not appear (hence my original message) and now episode 3 is not there either (episode 2 is still not there).
Occasionally when I open and Load Shows a new window opens up and proceeds to start downloading around 2700 files, even though I've never deleted the ~2GB cache the software has already downloaded. The number of new movies/shows does not change dramatically. A series of wget windows opens up and starts downloading ZIPs occasionally too. Why are these appearing, is there any way to stop them or could you prompt me first?
With the overwrite .nfos option, does it go back to thetvdb and check to see if the .nfo has been updated? What about the overwrite .tbn option? I find if I get some shows shortly after release there is no thumb but later there is. If I'm too early I miss the thumb, does the overwrite option go back and redownload any missing ones?
Someone asked how to update their XBMC library remotely. You could create a Scheduled Task (Windows) or Cronjob (*nix, Mac[?]) to open up the following URL:
http://xboxusername:xboxpassword@xboxIP/...28Video%29 (from a remote machine)
or
http://xboxusername:[email protected]%29 (if locally on the XBMC machine)
I've been using this in conjunction with MediaRenamer (which does an adequate but not great job) and, like krpyt2nite above, have found it to be of great use organising my stuff in the meticulous way I like.
