TV Shows not importing to library
#1
Quote:Hi All,

First of this is my first post here, im also new to XBMC I have been using MediaPortal for 2 years now. I have never really given XBMC a proper go until now, so far its looks really good, however the only thin im having trouble with is my TVShows

all my movies import perfect, however none of my TVShows are importing at all Sad

My Setup:

Win7 X64
XBMC 10.0

Folder/File Structure:
TVShows\{ShowName}\{ShowName}-S{Season}\{ShowName} - [{Season}x{Episode}] - {EpisodeTitle}.avi
EG - TVShows\Chuck\Chuck-S3\Chuck - [03x08] - Chuck Verses the Fake Name.avi

Now from what i have been reading this structure would NOT be recognised by the default XBMC settings

So after reading the wiki (http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=TV_Shows_(Vi...rt_in_XBMC) I renamed a few episodes to try and get them to show up in the library.

I think renamed them to ....

TVShows\Chuck\Chuck.s03e08.avi

This still didnt show up, then after reading some more i found the advancedsettings.xml stuff about the TVScraper so i tried adding this in but also to no avail

Im really hoping i can get this working because if it does then i think ill stick with XBMC as i really like it so far.

below I have included my advancedsettings.xml file and also attached my logfile all i did was fireup XBMC and start a scan

according to the log the advancedsettings.xml file is recognised but the settings dont seem to apply, i also have the alwaysontop and fullscreen setting but neither of these seem to apply

Also i should mention that all my series get detected fine its just they show up with no episodes or season....

anyway thanks in advance for the help!

EDIT: it wont let me attach the log file i assume because i have only posted once, however i do have the debug log and will post the important parts

Hi there,

Please post FULL logs to pastebin. Don't cut them, as you almost invariably remove the key line. You can highlight the appropriate section ofcourse if you wish.

Also, get rid of your advancedsettings.xml unless you KNOW that you need it. Based on the filenames in your log you don't need it.

Cheers,
Jonathan

i think im making some progress after removing the series from the TVShow section of XBMC some shows appear to be scraping correctly...

I had tried removing the entire video folder but not the individual series, so far i have only tried this on one season but so far looks good ill post back if it works for all the series
