XMBC TV show not found - wuho - 2012-07-11 Hello everyone I'm kinda new to xbmc, but I figure things out and it was working well until now. Im having trouble to get the TV show "storm chasers" to show up. using the scrapper thetvdb. ( and have tryed the other ones) Without anny luck. the tv show is on the homepage, but why is it that xbmc would load it? I tryed to search thrue the web, but didn find something. Im running Xbmc bunto. if it has anny influence. i hope you guys can help. thanks... RE: XMBC TV show not found - artrafael - 2012-07-11 Welcome to the XBMC forums. Did you organize your show's folder and episode files as outlined here and did you name your show's episodes using the season and episode numbers based on what's shown on tvdb.com for this show? For example: Code: Storm Chasers.S05.E07.xxx RE: XMBC TV show not found - activoice - 2012-07-11 You can also use the naming convention Storm Chases 507. Or if you'd also like the episode title in the filename, (not required, but personal preference on my part) you can do this Storm Chasers 507 - The Storm Within.

Storm chaser - Season 1 - storm chaser episode 1.avi and thetvdb thinks the whole thing is Formula 1 racing ? :S even tried to rename them different. RE: XMBC TV show not found - artrafael - 2012-07-11 Did you try either of the naming conventions activoice and I suggested in our posts above? Also, the name of the show is "Storm Chasers". RE: XMBC TV show not found - wuho - 2012-07-11 yes i tried them I just miss typed. It's named Storm chasers on the media center should I make some screenshots? RE: XMBC TV show not found - artrafael - 2012-07-11 What are you trying to represent with the dashes in your example? Code: Storm chaser - Season 1 - storm chaser episode 1.avi Are you trying to show your directory/file hierarchy for this show is as follows: Code: Storm chaser (directory name) Or is this the actual file name for this episode? Code: Storm chaser - Season 1 - storm chaser episode 1.avi RE: XMBC TV show not found - wuho - 2012-07-11 (2012-07-11, 09:31)artrafael Wrote: What are you trying to represent with the dashes in your example? Right now i did like this. Storm chasers (directory name) | |____ Season 1 (subdirectory name) | |_____ storm chasers.S01.E01.avi (episode filename) And it went up with FORMULA 1 racing. http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=248164&lid=7 RE: XMBC TV show not found - artrafael - 2012-07-11 (2012-07-11, 09:40)wuho Wrote: Right now i did like this. In order for the scraper to work correctly, you need to be organized, precise and consistent. Try the following and pay special attention to your spelling and capitalization of the directories and file names. Code: Storm Chasers (directory name) Be sure you scrape from the top-level directory ("Storm Chasers") to pick up all your episodes. RE: XMBC TV show not found - scudlee - 2012-07-11 If you've set the Storm Chasers folder as your source, you need to make sure you set the "Selected folder contains a single TV show" setting in the Set content dialog, otherwise XBMC will assume the subfolder names (i.e. "Season 01") are individual series names.

I tried it with the box checked and without. Still no luck how i did is this setup. i added "tv shows" ( thats the name on my folder on the HDD where all tv shows are" The folder contains "family guy" "viva la bam" "american dad" "storm chasers" All shows do show up, with pictures, info etc. except "storm chasers" <-- and thats my favorit show. I tryed to rename it in 100 ways Is there some other good scrapper arround ? RE: XMBC TV show not found - wuho - 2012-07-11 i give up guys.
