Hm, but it does work fine for me with set to auto.

p: is a mount to \\server\f$, Os on both sides are win7.

Looks like it does select the wrong path for scanning?

and n:\sab is excluded from scans.

If its excluded (its also set to content none), shouldnt it excluded from watching too?

(version 0.7.1)

Migrating from old setup with shares mounted at OS level:
- everything should work out of the box. You can choose to go back to letting xbmc handle the shares but if you don't mind it's preferable to keep them mounted at OS level because of better performance. Note: do not change method to 'Auto' if you choose to keep them mounted at OS level. It must be set to 'Polling'. Auto only work if xbmc handles them.
- MySQL users: to avoid scan/clean being done twice for every event, the os mounted media source must be removed.

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.

I have stripped out as many variables as possible. I did a fresh default install of XBMC (no mysql, path redirection, symlinking or anything) and added a smb source. The full path of the tv show I am testing is:
data
----Media
--------TV Shows
------------Modern Family
----------------Season 02
--------------------mkv, nfo, tbn files

The source I added in xbmc was smb://192.168.120.178/Media/TV Shows/
I installed the watchdog addon and left the default settings, enabled debug logging, and added a keymap of g to XBMC.UpdateLibrary(video).

So for the first test I just moved episode 19 mkv, nfo, and tbn to the Season 02 directory. I saw a very quick flash of the updating notification in the top right but the episode was not added to the library. I then pressed g to initiate a video library update and the updating notification appeared and the episode was added to the library. See the full log of this test log

For the second test, I modified the delay in watchdog, as suggested, to 10. I did the same test as above with episode 20 and had the exact same results. See the log for that here: log

You can compare the 2 different library updates in each of these two files and see that they look a bit different. Any idea what is going on?

I'm using a Raspberry Pi with a Linksys DNS-320 NAS drive, when I put files into folders they are not appearing via XBMC even if I reboot, if I create a new directory on the NAS & put something in that does appear. Another issue is that if I browse the files on the XBMC it shows me a folder called SCANDAL which does not exit, but it doesn't show me one called Scandal (US) which does.

I have Watchdog set for Polling.

Any pointers would be most grateful.

If I use an NFS share mounted on the OS level in conjunction with the add-on but the NFS share is not always available, will that cause issues like the library being deleted? My server that contains my media is not always on when XBMC is on. So since this add-on cleans up items, if I turn on XBMC and the network share is not available, will it clean up the library and then start from scratch once the share is available or will it just sit and wait for the network share to become available?

unless i'm mistaken, i believe that option is in the settings.

No, it's correct. The setting is for notifications. The popup on clean/scan can't be turned off. It's been discussed hundreds of times.

Why can't it be suppressed? It is very intrusive and literally stops anything you are doing. I' think at minimum you could set it to update/clean in the background during video playback or something like Rob's updater does (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=119520)?
