XBMC not adding episodes with NFO files - Seft - 2009-12-19 Hi, I'm having difficulty getting XBMC to add a series to my library. I'm using 9.11 RC1 and Confluence. The folder structure is -TV --Generation Kill ---Season 1 The filenames are Generation.Kill.Part1....mkv - i.e. not S01E01. I'd quite like to keep the filenames intact, so I placed NFO files in the folders as specified by the Wiki: tvshow.nfo in the Generation Kill folder: Code: <tvshow> and .NFO files identically named to each video file e.g.: Code: <episodedetails> Can anyone suggest what I might be doing incorrectly? Thanks - jmarshall - 2009-12-19 You still need to match the episode files via regexp. You can easily do this using something like: <regexp>Part([0-9]+)</regexp> Cheers, Jonathan - Seft - 2009-12-20 Thanks, Should I add that to advancedsettings.xml under <tvshowmatching> ? I'm pretty new to XBMC and Regexp is Voodoo to me anyway I'm disappointed that the behaviour of NFO files didn't match my expectations - I'd imagined it as a fairly powerful way to add *any* file into the library, regardless of the naming convention, which I would have thought fairly useful. Is there any point in submitting a feature request, or would this be too far from the original design brief of the function? Thanks again - jmarshall - 2009-12-20 The library is getting a rewrite. I shall keep this in mind. |
