My XBMC client is a Windows 7 box and the media source is added using smb:// format (not a mounted drive). I'm using Frodo and the latest watchdog with default settings. I use Sickbeard to download torrents and it places the finished files in my sources directory. I did four different trials to try to pinpoint the problem. I downloaded the first 4 episodes of American Idol Season 12. I closed xbmc between each one to grab the full debug logs. The first episode was auto-refreshed by watchdog and the following three were not. I'm thinking the difference is that for the first one, Sickbeard created a season directory that didn't exist and maybe that is what triggered watchdog. For each episode it moved the video file and a nfo file and a thumbnail icon inside the source directory being watched.

First episode Only one that triggered a watchdog library refresh.

Second Episode

Third Episode

Fourth Episode

I still had polling enabled with infinite depth. And I have some folders with a lot of files and folders.

Now that we just can use Auto in Frodo for mounted CIFS shares, I set Auto with 2 subfolders (tv with season folders) and all is fine for now.
As far as I understand it does not use polling for my network shares but some Windows Api:

2013-02-09 08:02:39:0954 887 08:02:39 T:6428 DEBUG: service.watchdog: watching <N:\vids\tv\> using <class 'watchdog.observers.read_directory_changes.WindowsApiObserver'>

Thanks for this addon.

Whenever I delete a file or a movie it automatically cleans my database even though this option is set to off in the configuration. This is not good because if I do for some reason lose my network connection watchdog will delete every thing in the database.

The other issue I am having is when I add something new, it does not automatically scan.

Are these known issues? I had no issues with the previous version. I am currently using OpenELEC 3 (Beta 5).

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Auto only works for local drives and network locations set in xbmc. If you have network shares mounted by OS then you need to set method to Polling. There's no way to know where the drive for "N:\vids\tv" is physical located. (i''ll update the faq)

They're all detected by the addon and the scan is triggered. The problem is that xbmc scans but don't see that anything has changed. Probably something in between xbmc and your server that don't properly invalidate cache. Try setting a longer delay in the addon setting. That's the delay the addon will wait after the new file was detected to telling xbmc to scan.
