Tv series with nfo's don't appear in library - niels - 2008-09-12

Hello

I tried to add my tv series to the library today, but they won't show up. They all have nfo's made with XBMC media companion (http://www.billyad2000.co.uk/), so I guess it has nothing to do with thetvdb.com. When there are nfo's the scraper uses them by default, right? Or do I need to enable an option to do this?

The movie library works perfect, so I don't see what I am doing wrong with the tv shows.

I am using Atlantis alpha 4.

Thanks in advance.

I have been playing some with this around a bug hunt and it worked as expected.
I think a debug log is in order.

I posted a log here: http://pastebin.ca/1200995.

When I go to the tv shows menu (in xtv skin) it says "no scanned information for this view"

And what happens when you try scanning the TV Shows folder?

Well, it looks like it is scanning. It looks the same as scanning movies. But the tv shows don't get added to the library.

I solved the problem.

I was adding folders like e.g. D:\series\Heroes. That didn't work.
Now, I just added the D:\series folder and now it works.
Don't know why I first tried to add every single folder, since it is much more workBlush Maybe I underestimated XBMCs intelligenceRolleyes
