I've only been using MC for a short while, so only really just discovered functionality and great use of the Table view! I didn't realise this had previously caused an issue, so I dont feel so worried now!

That'd be great. Thanks for this! Could you not just add a blank section on the drop down list as the default which means that this is overlooked when tagging the sets?

Damn it! So you're telling me my mother lied to me all my childhood! I'm going to have to have words!

He he, I'm glad you have a good sense of humour!

This "-None-" is fairly in-grained in the code, I think it would be a mission to change it now! OR, I can fix the problem. Still doesn't help with the mistake already made, so will probably still have to 'sweep' all the NFOs.

Life's too serious at times. How shit would it be if we couldn't even have a laugh at our own expense at times hey!

Fair play! I wouldn't even begin to describe my knowledge of what you guys do as informed!

As far as I am concerned it's white magic! I'm just glad you are able to do what you do and are thus able to solve this!

Muchos credit to you sir!

Don't worry, it's all magic to me too! I'm just a hacker who thinks computers should do what we tell 'em to do! Just sometimes they happen to be very obstinate!
Oh, and don't thank me yet - I haven't done it yet!

I have faith dude! No rush either. At least I've spotted it now! At first I thought I'd lost half my library!

Hi guys, first of all. Thank you a lot for all the work on this program. I recently switched to version 3.5 and had it scan all my tv shows. Every time I add an episode now however, XBMC doesn't scrape it when I update the library. Is this a known bug?

Even if MC doesn't scrape it and create the nfo, xbmc should still scrape it using the scraper you selected when you set the folder up. Maybe you should change the scraper in xbmc...

MC scrapes it just fine. I use the xbmc scraper. However, when I press update library or scan for new content, the files don't get picked up. I checked and they are in the right folder. If I delete the database and redownload everything, it works fine. In fact, I shouldn't even have to give the command to update the library, because Sickbeard sends a notification to XBMC.

Just a quick question regarding movie sets.

I went to the table view to batch tag all movies into sets. However those movies which did not belong to a set had -none- tagged into .nfo.
Now in my XBMC library I have 100's of movies put into a set marked -none-.

Is there a way to remove these tags without individually editing the .nfo as that will be way too laborious!

BTW, the latest release is the nuts! great program people, keep up the great great great work!

Thanks in advance for any help offered!

Hi TH3 MOL3

I know HueyHQ has replied to you on this, and a note to HueyHQ, I just tested this with MC3.500, going into Table view, setting a couple of Movies to the set 'Onemore' (dummy set).

Added this to XBMC and only the three movies I put into 'Onemore', were in a set. All other movies stayed in the root list of movies, ie: no movie was in a set '-none-.

I also checked the nfo's and no movie had <set>-none-</set> tag.

What I did notice, is Table View can put a movie into a set, but not removed from a set. ie: changed Puss In Boots into 'Onemore' set, clicked 'Save Changes' and changed to Main Browser. Puss In Boots now in 'Onemore' Set.

Switch back to Table View, and change Puss In Boots to -none- and click Save Changes, switch back to Main Browser and still set to 'Onemore' set. Back to Table View and also still set to 'Onemore'.

In Main Browser I can select -none- and save and it sticks. Also confirmed that the line <set>Onemore</set> is removed, not changed to <set>-none-</set>

Sorry, I couldn't reproduce the issue. I know StormyKnight solved this or a similar issue, #movie set -none-

PS, A tool to correct the nfo's would be brilliant. Good idea HueyHQ.

So, you are using Sickbeard to add episodes? Do you have Sickbeard post-processing metadata for XBMC? If so, XBMC will pick up the .nfo file regardless of what is in it. Any changes to that made by MC won't get importied again by XBMC.

I don't use Sickbeard, and so I'm only guessing here - vbat99 might have more of an idea.
