Wall.E is coming up as wallacw and gromith.

I canr find any nfo file in in any movie folders.

Am i doing something wrong?

An NFO file is a simple text file with the suffix .nfo.

Make it exactly the same name as the movie filename without the suffix (e.g. drop .MKV). Put the following line in on it's own.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910970/

(So the file would be "Wall-E (2008).nfo" - or whatever. Then rescan.

Wall E - 2008 - AC3 - 720p.mkv - thats how it looks with mine.
but i'm using IMDB - because the search results with other scrappers were not good enough for my movies (a lot are named with the german title), and IMDB will find both names, and then uses either the original or the german (depending on the settings in the Plugin).
I think you must use capital letters for WALL E, then it should also work with TMDB.
Suggestion:
when i create new Files, i always go to IMDB first, and do a copy /paste of the correct spelling (including the year in ( ) ). Since i do so, all my movies are captured correctly from scratch. Wink

Changed scrapper from TMDb to IMDB and then it found Wall-E.

I have one folder called movies, and when i scan this my music videos from another folder "musicvideos" shows up in the movie library?

Why does it scan another folder when i tell it to scan only movies?
Deleted mymoviesdb and started over, and music videos stil pop up....

Anyone?

No. Have a disk with only data on it.
E:/my computer/data/movies
E:/my computer/data/musicvideos (these are ripped dvds)

I am using the Transparency! skin. There i choose music videos.
These are not single vidoeclips. They are ripped music dvds, can this be a problem?

If you set "musicvideos" and "movies" as two separate sources I don't see anyway for it to happen unless you have added "my computer" or "Data" as a source by mistake or added "musicvideos" and "movies" as one source

When i am at the main menu i choose musicvideo and add source, i only add my musicvideos folder and automatic scan.
When this folder are finnished scanning i go to movies in main menu, and add source, i only add movies folder.

But here i can see the musicvideos source that i added. Maybe this is why it picks up musicvideos and place them in moviesConfused
