Mass Movie Import: which aren't picked up

I'm busy importing my movie collection, which are 201 movies. After it scanned for new content it came to a impressive number of 156 movies detected.

However, that means that 45 movies aren't picked up. How can I view and correct these items?

Thanks,

Dennis

Go into file view (i.e turn off library view), and go into the relevant source folder. Find the movies which havent been imported, right click on them, and choose to manually add them to library.

I know, that is not the issue, the issue is to know which movies aren't imported. My collection is too big for me to remember which movies are picked up and which are not.

As the previous poster says, go to file mode and then just browse your collection, any movies without thumbs or fanart probably haven't been imported!

hehe, that wont work, since I previously used to populate each movie with a folder.jpg thumb

I have the same problem as well. I had to manually add every movie. Just a pain. I used Ember to edit the movies before I read them in with an update to the library. Let me know if you know of a solution! Thanks

enable debug logging.

scan the directory using 'scan for new content'

grep the log for 'no info found'

Thanks spiff!
Is there a feature in the pipeline that allows easy viewing of which items have been imported? I basically have 1 movie in each folder so a total of 201 folders.

Anyway, this is the output:
Not very helpful at determining which movie has been picked up. Ideas?

P.s: one thing that is peculiar is that I'm using a movie.nfo for some folder using the method as we discussed earlier spiff. They don't get picked up. Maybe this is wrong? It's just a file called movie.nfo with the imdb link.

heh, grep then look at the line before it or there about. reminds me i need to change that to allow better grepability.

cat xbmc.log | grep ExcludeFileOrFolder:
16:08:52 T:3013024656 M:939175936 DEBUG: ExcludeFileOrFolder: File 'smb://NAS/Downloads/Movies/Watchmen/1.Sample/' excluded. (Matches exclude rule RegExp:'[-._ ]sample')

It doesn't pick up because there is a sample folder?
the folder Watchmen has 3 folders:
1. Sample
2. Pictures
3. Movie
