XBMC does not retrieve any metadata from video media files (reason as I understand it is because there are no standards).
So either you have to get the info from online sources (via scrapers) or create nfo files for them.

The opposite is true for music. XBMC gets as much info as it can from the files themselves. In order for that to work well, your tagging has to be complete and accurate.
