Hi Guys

I have 2 problems I need help fixing, i've installed latest build on my Asrock 330 ion BD running Ubuntu 9.04.

1. I can't populate my TV Shows folder, I added the source, but the TV Shows folds stays completely empty, I looked at other threads, but they all contain information i already know :-(

2. Some of my movies does not playback sound, while others do:

These play sound:
Madagascar.Escape.2.Africa.720p.Bluray.x264-SEPTiC
Felon.2008.720p.BluRay.x264-SiNNERS

These do not play sound:
The.Taking.of.Pelham.123.720p.BluRay.x264-HUBRIS
Public.Enemies.720p.BluRay.x264-METiS
The.Brothers.Bloom.LIMITED.720p.Bluray.x264-CBGB

the files does have sound on XBMC on my other computer running Windows 7, just not on XBMC on my Asrock, any idea as to what might be wrong?

How are they stored? filenames? folder? nfo files present from MIP?

I tried making a log on pastebin:

The first movie Madagascar.Escape.2.Africa.720p.Bluray.x264-SEPTiC played fine with sound, the second movie Public.Enemies.720p.BluRay.x264-METiS did not play any sound, heres a pastebin link:
http://pastebin.com/f67e7ab17

regarding the TV show issue, there is no nfo files in the folders, i thought XBMC was supposed to download these?
Here the folder setup:
TV Series
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Season 7
Curb.Your.Enthusiasm.S07E08.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION

Now I have nfo files containing info as below, still it doesn't show up in TV Shows in xbmc:

´╗┐<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<tvshow>
<title>Curb Your Enthusiasm</title>
<year>
</year>
<rating>8.8</rating>
<plot>Each half-hour episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm features semi-improvised footage of David (playing himself) at home, at work and around town, as he gets into predicaments with fictional and real-life personalities.

Candid, unsparing and self-deprecating, Curb Your Enthusiasm brings the off-kilter comic vision of Larry David--co-creator and co-executive producer of one of the most lauded comedy series in TV history, Seinfeld--to HBO.</plot>

Ok so I've looked at the log and even though i'm no expert I think I figured out the problem or at least why some movies have sound and some don't, the movies with DTS sound is the ones that don't produce sound, AC3 and other play just fine. Can someone help me fix the problem? Like I wrote earlier, the movies play just fine in XBMC under Windows 7 on my other computer.

I still haven't figured out why TV Shows aren't getting populated, so if anyone has some input as to what might be the problem i would be grateful :-)

PS. I noticed that when starting XBMC under Ubuntu on my HTPC it always needs to be started twice, the first time it looks like it's opening "the icon widening" but then nothing else happens, the second time I click the icon, XBMC starts fine, I posted 2 logs below:

Sound problem fixed, found this thread:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?p=442191

I did some more playing around with the audio settings and found you can enable Dolby without affecting the HDMI output.

-Dolby Digital (AC3) Capable receiver-----on
-DTS Capable Receiver-------------------off

Make sure DTS is off or you will hear didley.
