Just a quick bug post... but it may be me as well.
In attempting to add the local media on my drive through playon [My Media (Beta)], the script does not recurse...
It sees the search filter as "My" and does not follow through on the path...
I know that makes no sense, but in short, if the source is a single word in the config.xml, then all is good... Moving to multiword sources is a no go. Since "My Media (Beat) is the hardcoded pathname in PlayOn, it is no accessible.

I have ran into a problem with name detection for Star Trek: Enterprise and Star Trek: Voyager. It seems that during scan it will find the shows in my Netflix instant queue but then lump then both into the same folder called Star.Trek. Is there any way to override how the program detects a name?
[CODE]10/06/2011 03:21:49 PM INFO Archive:New Archived video at: X:\Streaming\TV Shows\Star.Trek\Season.2\S02E01 - The 37's.mpg (Netflix/Instant Queue/Alphabetical/S/Star Trek: Voyager/Season 2/01: The 37's#

CODE]
The detection problem happens even if I remove one show and only have one Star Trek show on my queue.
Sorry, not paste of the long as pastebin is down right now. Unless you really want me to paste the log here just it will be big.

Thanks, pkscuot, that helps XBMC scan in the show, but the episodes from MyLibrary are not correct. When it reads the episodes, it searches TheTVDB for "Ally.McBeal.Season.1" and doesn't find it. So, all the episodes are put into Season 0. XBMC only scans in the first episode because that's all there is for Season 0 on TheTVDB. MyLibrary needs to know that "Ally.McBeal.Season.1" equals "Ally.McBeal", hence the need for the series id attribute.
I've got this to work by using the Amazon add-on instead of using PlayOn. In the add-on, all the seasons are listed under the "Ally McBeal" directory. This won't work for some other shows, though, because they are in HD and have " [HD]" at the end of their name. So, I'll have the same problem again.
There are a couple of drawbacks it this, though. When MyLibrary runs, it causes the amazon add-on to pop up a dialog box saying it is reading the directories. And when I try to watch a show, it takes a just under 2 minutes for playback to start. Just long enough for you think it's not working.

For those interested, I'm starting to make the needed modifications to this program for Eden compatibility.
So far I've seen some good results. I'm not planning on adding any new features (right now); I'm just updating the interface so it will work with Eden the way it works with Dharma right now...
PS. The interface seems much faster as well.
