hello to you all,

Iv been using XBMC for a a few years now on a basic level and all has been fine.

Until recently iv let the program scrape all the info for my films and tv shows i now use Ember to do this and i now have a load of .nfo and art files that i hope i can use with XBMC.

After a few searches i think iv got a bit lost and over whelmed with the amount of info concerning the .NFO files on the wiki and im going round in circles

At the moment this is what i'm doing>
1. Set the path to the movies and tv shows folders
2. Set the appropriate scraper for the content Films and TV Shows
3. Let XBMC do its thing and bingo all good the art files i picked are all being used and all seems good.

Is what i'm doing the best way to use the .NFO files as it takes a long time to load the posters fanart ect i thought it would be very quick as no scraping form the internet is involved, but i seems to be taking just as long as it did when XBMC was doing all the and having to download the art and info itself.

All help welcomed and happy viewing.

You are doing it the correct way.

Initially scraping may take some time, even from NFO files but subsequent rescrapes should be faster.
