I guess I might as well use folder name, since it uses the folder/moviefile structure anyhow, I'll think about it.

w000p very excited about this. Thx! Smile

But I also absolutely need the lookup to be done through the directory name. If for some reason you don't want to make this default ... perhaps allow it through a preference?

But the ones I tried with proper naming did pick up nicely Smile Thx man!! dankjewel Wink

@cbr600ds2: It currently doesn't show episodes in the list, and doesn't fetch episode data on it's own and as such, there is no support for fetching or editing loose episode metadata, or at least... not yet. Wink
Instead it fetches a TV Show guide which XBMC can use to fetch episode data. (TVDB Data)

@SpoBo: I think I remember hoping that people would use the directory name instead of movie file name way back when I started making this app, but just in case they didn't, I used the filename as default and made use of as much name filtering (removing flags such as 720p, divx and group name) as possible while searching.
So I'm glad to hear that folder name seems to be preferred over filename. ^^
It should use folder names in the next beta, and I'll see how that goes.
So you're welcome in advance & alvast graag gedaan! Wink

@chander: There's an option to use IMDB data (Ratings, Plot/Summaries, Premier date, etc) in addition to TMDB data, but this is through an unofficial API that only works in english and doesn't receive as much information as TMDB provides.
You can find the option in the preferences window under "Movies".

Thank You!!!
Finally...
It seems that movies titles with slash / like
Marat/Sade (1967)
gives back error when fetching metadata.

What's the error it gives? or what does it do instead of what you're expecting it to do?

A NAS huh... how do you have access to it? USB? Wireless network connection? and how many movies are on it?

I've put a second beta online with a few of the suggestions added, let me know how it works! Wink
