Hey all, I'm on Win7 64bit and I see unpopulated Missing Movies despite knowing there are several Missing Movies. I also don't see the autoscan option that is mentioned so many times on this thread in the configuration. I feel like I'm missing something basic...

[devoli]

Hello is there a way to add the missing files detected to the normal library?

thanks

[nickr]

Yes, name them correctly.

As our conversation is not related to the Missing Movie Scanner, I have split and moved our posts to here...

Please continue conversation in that thread.

Hey all,

been trying to get the Scanner to work, however when I run it, it just says to check the log file for errors. I am running Kodi 17.6 and am using the Source from Github for this Addon. Maybe someone has an idea on how to fix this. Here is the error log:

This addon should be considered obsolete.
Just run library scan and then visit the "event log" which is located in settings. There you will get a list of all that is not added to your library.

 Ah didn't know that it was logged there now. Thanks for the quick help

[Shawzborne]

So as of today is the Missing Movie Scanner no longer able to function?

[Karellen]

Use the built in Event Log... https://kodi.wiki/view/Event_Log

Sadly with my Windows 10 Leia alpha 2 it's just stopped working.

[Akirainblack]

Hooray, with Alpha 3 it's working perfectly again!

[lorkadiscovery]

I am not sure if its allowed but as the addon has been abandoned I have forked it and fixes some things / merged prs left in the original git.

It can be found here: https://github.com/lorkadiscovery/MissingMovieScanner

Please remove if not allowed.

 both yours and the original 4.0.5 didn't detect that magnum p.I. was missing from my library due to (2018) not added to the end of the folder, logging found it from the scanner though. So both still don't work in Kodi 17

@Shawzborne
Please take it here with a debug log and I will do my best to look into it for you.

Hey my friends, MMS used to work like a charm, but just stopped some weeks ago. Can you help me?

Check the log: https://pastebin.com/8UMsypm2

I really don't wanna reinstall ubuntu and I have no clue about what is going on
