Hi Billy,
I have used your program to keep my movie collection organised for months but have only recently (today) started using it to scrape tv episodes. I must say that my first time experience is just as hassle-free and straight-forward as movies is - well done!
I am posting with a possible MC/XBMC bug and a small MC feature request, so I'll split it up like that.
XBMC/MC BUG
===========
I'm pretty sure that this is a problem with XBMC and not MC, but I'll post here just in case...
After using MC to successfully detect and scrape TV shows with "special episodes" in them, I cannot get XBMC to display the season thumb for the specials.
The special episodes are properly identified and scraped by MC, and XBMC imports them properly (except the season thumb)
I am storing the show like this:
D:\TV Shows\Show Name\Show.Name.Season.00.DVDRip.x264
D:\TV Shows\Show Name\Show.Name.Season.01.DVDRip.x264
D:\TV Shows\Show Name\Show.Name.Season.02.DVDRip.x264
After updating the XBMC library, the season01.tbn and season02.tbn episode thumbs are working for season 1 and 2 but the "Specials" season isnt liking season00.tbn
Any idea what is going on here?
FEATURE REQUEST
==============
Any chance we could have MC scrape a season-all.tbn season thumb from thetvdb.com posters section of that particular show? XBMC uses this thumb on the "ALL" menu item when you are browsing the seasons for a show (stacking must be disabled to see it).
That's it!
Keep up the great work Billy!
