Switch to PM3.HD meanwhile since that is used throughout the manual, you can always switch back to Aeon.

Quick question.....

Let us say I have created a source for my movies....and xbmc lists all the info from the library in FILE mode.

Now, to activate the LIBRARY, i do the following:

1. set content = MOVIE
2. scraper = IMDB
3. USE FOLDER NAMES FOR LOOKUP

Then do SCAN FOR NEW CONTENT.....if this is done and each of my folder has its own *.nfo, *.tbn and folder.jpg the LIBRARY is built using the info in each folder (rather than scraping IMDB) - Have I got it right?

Yes.

If you have each movie in it's own folder and the folder has are relevant name you use "USE FOLDER NAMES FOR LOOKUP".
You probably don't need it activated since you seem to have all the information contained in nfo files though.

I need to scan for the SEARCH functionality in the LIBRARY mode!

To toggle to LIBRARY mode xbmc forces me to SCAN FOR NEW CONTENT - There is simply no way to get around it!

If I SCAN FOR NEW CONTENT then the scraper ignores my folder *.nfo information!

Is this a bug? The previous version of XBMC worked fine!

With PM3.HD?
(see the debug log requirement in the link I gave you)

vskatusa · 2009-05-04 17:56

Tried ALL skins -- Same results!

I also tried SET CONTENT with the following settings!

THIS DIRECTORY CONTAINS: MOVIES
RUN AUTOMATED SCANS: off
USE FOLDER NAMES FOR LOOKUP: off
SCAN RECURSIVELY: off
SELECTED FOLDER CONTAINS A SINGLE VIDEO: off (greyed)
EXCLUDE PATH FROM LIBRARY UPDATES: on

GUI MODE: FILE (VIDEO)

All the cover art is correctly keyed off my folder info....now when I press "I" for information...I expected the *.nfo info to be show but curiously xbmc scans the internet and shows me various listings for me to pick! This is definitely a bug!

Please click here for logs!

Another problem I have noticed: When I sort on FILE or NAME (Both are identical in my case) the sort is not correct!

**sho** · 2009-05-04 19:05

This is not a debug log. Please commit the correct type of log (again, info in the link I gave you).

Also please check "run automated scan"

Ok! here is the log

**sho** · 2009-05-04 19:42

And what happens if your turn on Library mode?

**spiff** · 2009-05-04 19:43

what exactly is the issue? that scan seems to have run just fine, the missing stuff is due to the movie having no thumbs on imdb or impa and no fanart on tmdb...
