I was just doing some testing and added a file 'tvshow.nfo' describing the show 'Dancing With The Stars'. Once I'd finished, I deleted the .nfo file and related folder, and deleted it from the library.

However, whenever XBMC updates its library, it still seems to find 'Dancing With The Stars'. It doesn't find any episodes, but still adds the TV Show. It even says it can be found at the folder

Code:

Z:\Videos\Dancing With The Stars

which doesn't exist.

I don't think there's any files to be found on the hard drive which should cause XBMC to find the show. Could I be missing something that XBMC might have created? How can I stop XBMC from 'finding' this show?

Clean the library

Try manually cleaning the library from System\Video\Library\Clean Library. I don't think xbmc automatically cleans the library unless the cleanonupdate command is included in an advancedsettings xml file - see the wiki for further information - re set-up and placement. Update is all xbmc is doing ie looking for new content not cleaning as well.

Manually clean the library. Cleanonupdate is disabled by default because clean removes items from the library if the associated file is inaccessible for *any* reason (disconnected usb drive, network problem, computer shutdown, etc.)
