Hi guys, I found that I had a few movies that weren't showing up in the library and I found it very tedious to sift through a files view to find them myself. So I wrote this plugin to search through your sources and display them all in a list to you. Works with tv shows as well!
Missing movie viewer 2.0.16
January 13th Update! You no longer have to enter the source directories for TV shows or movies.
January 30th Update! Fixed a bug regarding local sources.
January 31st Update! Fixed another bug regarding local sources.
February 1st Update! All bugs should now be fixed!
February 4th Update! My plugin now supports movie sets and multi-file movies! Also fixed a bug regarding TV shows that have no seasons.
February 6th Update! Now it really should support multi-file movies! Plus some more bug fixes.
February 7th Update! Fixed a bug regarding commas in the file names.
February 11th Update! Fixed a bug regarding video_ts folders.
I run this script on XBMC for Linux and it's running fine, so if anyone has a problem, particularly on a different platform, don't forget to post a log and mention what OS you use!
Note: for this plugin to include sources, it must find at least one video in each source. So if you add a new source and no files in that source are in the library, the source won't be searched. This is to prevent the TV and Movie sections from overlapping and displaying huge amounts of files.
Any problems, comments, or anything at all, just post it here and I'll try and get it sorted.

Known Problems:
- Network shares (\\desktop-name\share or smb://) currently don't work. This is a lack of support from XBMC, and is currently not possible. If someone can get around this, let me know!
