I've got a pretty large number of movies, and when looking at my library in XBMC I can tell that a few of them are missing. I've currently got 761 movies in my scanned directory. However, I can see that only 756 of them are showing up in the library view. I'm guessing this is due to a discrepancy in the way certain movies are named and scraped. Is there any easy way to figure out which ones aren't showing up in the library list other than going through and comparing my movies one by one?

Guys, I have a similar problem and I would appreciate your help...
When I start Kodi in my ATV2, the scanning starts, it finds all the new movies, but these will not show in the showcase/list when I go into Movies.
What can I do?

Well now you know what the movies are, give us an example of the FULL PATH AND NAME of a movie that is not scraping, also where in that path the source is set, and what your source scraping settings are.
An example of a full path is:
c:\media\movies\avatar 2009\avatar.mkv
with the source set as c:\media\movies, set as movies with themoviedb set as scraper and ... (how the options are set)

Bumping old thread , no need for a new one, this is the exact problem I am having.
I downloaded Missing Movies add-on, and can see the titles of the missing movies flash during Library Update, but they still don't show in the Movie list.
I then went back and added years to the missing movies, both the folder and the file itself. Nothing.
Most are major releases too, titles like Avatar, Whiplash, The Dark Knight, Batman Begins etc. (over 25 out of 220 titles)
If I look them up in Windows, I can see all the fanart, extra fanart etc. ...and can play them from there, but they are still not showing in the Movie list.
I've been at this for countless hours on and off for weeks, and am at a loss for now.
Any updated possible solutions? Any help greatly appreciated...
Thanks
-Steve

So in that log, what is an example of a file that didn't scrape?
