I was very happy to find out I can do this, but after long hours of trying it is just a big disappointment.
I just can't get this to work for me. Don't understand why and the behavior is weird.
I have read through all the pages, some of the problems were similar to mine but the solutions don't work for me.
I set everything up according to the instructions. The only thing different is that I had mysql 5.1 already installed and it includes other schemas and users for other applications. The db character settings are latin1.
When I import the db from the export what I get is 'path' table looks changed but missing scraper info on rows, 'tvshow' table seems fine. movies are not loaded nor are tv episodes.
When I add a scraper to a path, it is added in the db, however if I look again through xbmc it seems not to read the data from the db and the scraper is empty for the path. Basically I can't even test adding a new movie entry because there is no scraper and no way to configure it.
I've tested this on several directories on local path and smb path. Nothing works. I've also tested this on several different versions of xbmc from 10.1 and up.
This should be a very simple task and yet it seems very unstable and complicated.
Any other ideas?
