TV Library Issues - Thermos - 2010-01-24 My TV Library is driving me nuts. It shows the TV Shows but when i select a show its empty...no seasons or episodes. The only thing i can think that changed around this time is I used Media Companion to grab info and backgrounds and such for my shows. The structure is just \TV Show\TV Show - S01E01 - Ep Name.avi and the only thing added to the folders are the files from media companion. tvshow.nfo, fanart.jpg, folder.jpg, season01.tbn, etc. I tried deleting the libarary and starting over, i tried removing xbmc and going back to the stable version from the xbmc download page and i am using the default confluence theme now, but none of this helped. If i dont use library mode the source works fine and everything is there. Can anyone tell me why the TV Shows show up but all my episodes are missing? - rjxxx - 2010-01-25 Same issue here actually, first time I am using Media Companion. Was hoping to eliminate all the scanning new content time, as well as gather more pics/info. But it seems any tv show I run it on, now no longer shows any episodes. Quite odd. - billyad2000 - 2010-01-25 I have just setup XBMC live and over the last couple of weeks heavily without issue. I would suggest that you post an example of a tvshow.nfo file that is not scraped, along with the XBMC debug log. - steelman1991 - 2010-01-25 The tvdb has had several instances of 'downtime' over the weekend, this might be part of your problem. Its down at the moment as well. - Louike - 2010-01-25 I was having problems scraping my local tv-show .nfo's too lately. reverted back to an older build. I dont think it's media companion related. - Thermos - 2010-01-26 thanks for the replies. tvdb seems to be back up. ill try again after work and see that was the issue. - rjxxx - 2010-01-26 Trying as well, but it didnt seem to be down when I did mine and have same issue. But, worth a try! - Thermos - 2010-01-26 ok so it doesnt seem to have anything to do with TVDB. I have a link to my debug log and posted a snippet of my tvshow.nfo. sorry for the post but the nfo trips pastebins filters. the error in the log looks like its..."but we have no episode guide. Check your tvshow.nfo and make sure the <episodeguide> tag is in place." xbmc debug log http://pastebin.com/m448d1ca0 tvshow.nfo (i cut out thumb, fanart, and actor info to keep it short) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <tvshow> <title>30 Rock</title> <year> </year> <rating>8.7</rating> <plot>Liz Lemon, played by Saturday Night Live's Tina Fey, is the head writer of the fictional TV show, 'The Girlie Show.'

My remedy is to move the series from the 'monitored' folder to the root - add a new series sub-folder in the 'monitored' folder then move the season and episodes only back into the new sub-folder. Providing you can use the root of the monitored folder to temporarily store the seaon sub-folder, it literally takes a few minutes and so far after each subsequent restart of xbmc, the season and episodes are correctly identified. Not a permanent resolution I know, but a fairly painless workaround. I view it as a minor irritation and have never sought a remedy - good luck with that. - Thermos - 2010-01-26 any other ideas? i dont see the mentioned <episodeguide> in my nfo file created by media companion. is this a requirement and/or the issue? - Louike - 2010-01-27 I think the tv show searcher is broken, it totally ignores my locally scraped .nfo's i tried MIP and Media Companion seperate. When i revert back to svn 26321 it works again. Working version (26321): Code: 14:41:16 T:4092 M:3008823296 DEBUG: Found matching Full NFO file: smb://LOUIKES/Series A - K/Heroes/Season 4/heroes.s04e17.720p.hdtv.x264-ctu.nfo Broken version (since svn 27045, that i know of, this was 27217) Code: 14:51:33 T:3044 M:2977828864 DEBUG: VIDEO::CVideoInfoScanner::DoScan - Finished dir: smb://LOUIKES/Series A - K/Heroes/ for some reason the newer builds mark my tv shows as corruptive. - mindweaver - 2010-01-27 I have the same issues, or at least similar. It ignores TV-shows with local nfo. If I remove the .nfos it scans them fine. - Thermos - 2010-01-27 where can i find build 26321 to try? i was going to look at http://sshcs.com/xbmc/ but it's down. - Louike - 2010-01-27 Dropped a ticket: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/8644 The older builds are here: http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/win32/ - mkortstiege - 2010-01-28 Please upgrade to a more recent version of XBMC (nightly) and report back. |
