Haha... countless hours of tweaking VMWare, and deleting one simple file fixed it all...
Thanks for the tip!

I've looked but I can't read all 400 pages, does anyone have a solution for items that a typically named by air date (such as The Daily Show / Colbert Report)? I can manually look up their proper season names / ep. numbers - and they scrape fine but I haven't seen if there is a setting to scrape by air-date for a particular show.

No, Pt as an episode marker is not supported at all currently. Obviously if you put this after the S01Ex thing, then it will work, because Ember recognize the episodes based on that.

lol, episode recognition will be a never ending story...
Is this supported by XBMC? (would be difficult as there can be multiple date formats and multiple date separators as well).

I didn't think it would scrape either, but it did. I am pretty sure I erased the info in it before I scraped, but maybe I didn't. Don't know.

Not true as I did a clean install of 1.0 when it was first released and had this bug crop up. I think one of the 1.0+ upgrades was the cause. BTW its not that big of a deal creating a new database as it loads all the media info fairly quickly.

Yeah my automated system workaround was to just download the RSS feeds for shows listed by date to their own folders and manually work them. Just wanted to see if anyone more clever than I had found a way around it.

Anyway, more important, it solved the issue?

Ember Media Manager - rattyjunk - 2010-04-18
Just a couple of questions for those of you that use this wonderful program..
1) If you have a collection of tv episodes say for instance Flash Forward and 1 through 10 are single episodes 11 and 12 are also single episodes but they have been joined together as one file eg flashforward.s01e11-12 will there be a problem. I ask because when scaping all 16 episodes I have all posters, fan art etc, but 11 and 12 appear as two seperate entries. Will this be ok.
2) When I have all the relevent artwork etc will I need to rename my files and folders before transfering to XBMC?
Thanks in advance

Hi, regarding k-on http://thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seriesid=87501&seasonid=47331&lid=7 the special episodes; what do I call them and what would the folder be called to put them in for them to be scraped?

Specials are listed as "Season 0". You can view the episode number at TVDB by clicking "Specials" under each Series, such as s00e01.

It seems that I partly solved my problem. Correct name for NFO, fanart, thumbs,.... is:
\VIDEO_TS\movie.nfo
\VIDEO_TS\movie.tbn (if I use *.jpg it doesn't work)
\VIDEO_TS\poster.tbn
\VIDEO_TS\folder.tbn
\VIDEO_TS\fanart.jpg
\VIDEO_TS\extrathumbs\thumb1.jpg
Another problem is populating library. I set up content to movie, check "scan recursively" then:
If i use "scan for new content" - Nothing Happens
If i use "update library" - Nothing Happens
the only way to poplate movies is through Videos menu. I must go to my DVD folder and for each movie i have to press "I" (movie information) then it's added to the library. Horrible stereotyped work but it's better than nothing.
It looks that XBMC has still many critical bugs.
Does anybody know why updating library doesn't work?
