I just had a quick question. I have been recording the Tour de France. XBMC doesnt want to add it, presumably because it doesnt recognize the television show. I changed the name of the folder to Heroes and it added it no problem. I am guessing it is a setting somewhere, but I cant get it to add it with the folder name Tour de France. In case you need it, my folder structure is (folder)Tour de France -->(folder)Season 1-->101 - Stage 1. Same way I added all other tv shows. I appreciate your help

How could it be added if no scraper has info about it? Have a look at the wiki about .NFO files which you can use instead of a scraper.

Perhaps you could put all the files not recognised by a scraper into a special folder. You could then add that to your favourites for easy access.
You will always be able to access them via file mode. |

I would tend to agree with this... but go one stage further. There should be NO dependancy on a scraper (they should be welcome additions, not mandatory). I see absolutely nothing wrong with a media player (XBMC) 'trying' to deduce the TV series and searching for it online via a scraper, but should it fail, then what's so wrong with using the folder name as specified by the user? |

Go read the other threads about the new library that will be implemented. It should cover this.
