Thank you for the reply..........
Miss Scarlet is really Miss Scarlet and the duke. My sonarr program is currently screwed up so I have been getting stuff a bit differently and, as you found, screwed some up. Anyway, working on it.
In kodi I have two main problems. First is getting it to give me actual, real, full full screen. It was working just fine recently and then went back to making full a display of about 1/3 of the screen. My other problem is that my folders are doubling up on every show (not movies). Oft times, for instance, it will take a single show and show it two times, once telling me its not there and on the second that it is. My thought is that I have screwed things up but my data files are intact and safe. I am thinking it might be wise to remove and re-install kodi and let it just import everything rather than trying to fix the existing mess.
Thoughts?

On Ubuntu, pressing the backslash key \ should switch between full screen and windows mode. 1/3 of a screen as full screen is weird and probably is something messed up with the Nvidia drivers. I recently tried to have an Ubuntu setup install Nvidia drivers via its own "Find additional drivers" option, and it totally messed up. It's probably better to install Nvidia's own drivers package via the command line during booting so it won't mess with the rest of the setup. I have basically said goodbye to Nvidia and Linux because of their late driver mess.
Better yet, get a better piece of hardware altogether. Your setup is now some 11 years old, any more current Intel setup will run circles around your htpc. How about upgrading to a simple Intel J5005 or J5040 'box' (also in Ubuntu), it'll run circles around yours for a fraction of the electricity cost.

Then why not name the movie as such on your 3TB drive?

Thank you for the reply!
I am running at 3500mhz, Intel J5005 or J5040 run at about half of that. I will stick with this one. That being said those are selling off at a pretty cheap price and I have some great grandchildren who probably need one, I will see. I also swapped out my current driver (nvidia) for the geforce and it made no difference. I didn't put miss scarlet right because I wasn't paying attention and I will try to do better. My problems with kodi remain the same and I suspect I will eventually re-install because I know that works pretty good.
Thanks again! You set me straight and that is appreciated!
