how to manually add Movie Description? - eskro - 2010-11-18
Hello everyone!
on rare occasions, the movie scraper doesnt find my Movies...
specially foreign language ones...
now i did successfully add the BOX art and FAN art manually using images on my PC but now,
how can i add other infos like movie PLOT & Synopsis?
thanks!

ok thanks alot guys...
manually making a NFO file didnt work for me,,,
the movie didnt get my NFO's data...
anyways, maybe i'll have better luck with XBNE!
oh and also,
is there a way to only keep the 1 thumbnail and 1 Fan art
for all my movies?
because when i check whats in this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\eSkRo\Application Data\XBMC\userdata\Thumbnails
i see alot of un-used images in there,,,,
looks like when it scrapes, it gets everything,,,,
would take too long to delete them 1 by 1 ...
thanks

Your NFO needs to have the exact same name as your movie (ie: my movie.avi -> my movie.nfo). The content of your NFO needs to be correct as well.

it had same name,,, exact same,,,
1981.avi -> 1981.nfo

reload movie info after you modify/edit your nfo. xbmc doesn't know if any NEW data is added, so it has to be forced to look in the nfo (reload that particular movie info)

you can also use EmberMediaManager...

On context movie choose "remove from library".
Then rescan the source to update.
- eskro - 2010-11-18
so your saying,
i need to go on my MOVIES folder
and using context menu
i need to select "Remove Source"
- cmonpellier - 2010-11-18
and then remember to format your disk
no... select the movie, context menu, choose remove from library then right click and choose update library.

ok but there's no REMOVE FROM LIBRARY when i right-click on the movie BOX art
