export one tv series or create nfo - Neo207 - 2021-11-01

hello. i have two series which have been removed from tmdb.

is it possible to extract/export one tv series as nfo file including all pictures?

i know that you can export a whole library and import, but i have to export 2 tv series from two different kodi-systems.

kind regards

In Kodi 19 there is no such function, I hope it can be implemented in Kodi 20.
What you can do is remove any existing fanart/thumbs and nfo files in the tv serie folder.
Then, do the full export with separate files, but do not overwrite existing files.

Unfortunately it is not possible to export a single tv show. The export works on the entire library only.
The only workaround, and it is a silly workaround, is to delete the entire library except for those two shows then export the library. (I told you it was a silly workaround Wink )

Which tv show is it? It might be available elsewhere.

Or if you are on Windows, you can make a copy of your Kodi data folder (wiki). Delete your library, export the two shows. Once done, delete that Kodi data folder (wiki) then put back the copy and you have your library again.

i am a bit confused. how/what should i do!?

so to be clear... exporting shows as nfo isn't possible... but it could be possible in kodi 20.0?

Yes it is possible to export shows to nfo files. It is not possible to select individual shows for exporting. You export the whole library.
I never mentioned anything about v20

What are you confused about?
