I'm getting the following error when XBMCMC tries to begin scraping episode information after I've scraped the TV Show information:

1.988 - get error when trying to scape any episode/series info Xbmcmc10

It won't let me continue passed this point

I can't seem to replicate this, could you give me some more specific information about what you are doing, and exactly when the error occurs, the filenaming convention, and if you are using a custom regex.

Well I've been trying to troubleshoot it and more problems keep popping up.

In answer to your questions:

1.,2. I open up XBMC Media Companion 1.988.exe, click the TV Shows bubble, click "Open Preferences Window", click the Folders tab, add all of my shows using "Add Root Folder", then click "Save Changes and Exit" and then the error window pops up. Even if I select "Continue", none of the TV shows show up in the "Select TV Show" drop-down menu. Also, after doing this I get the error now whenever I launch the program, and then again with any other action within the program.

3. Here's the possible naming convention on all of my shows (showing one example each of every convention I'm using):

\Media\TV Shows\Arrested Development\Arrested Development Season 1\Arrested Development.S01.E01.avi
\Media\TV Shows\30 Rock\30 Rock Season 1\30.Rock.S01E01.Pilot.avi
\Media\TV Shows\Band of Brothers\Band Of Brothers.s01.e01 - Curahee.avi
\Media\TV Shows\South Park\SouthPark - 1x08 - Damien.rm
\Media\TV Shows\South Park\SouthPark - 507 - Proper Condom Use-Sirmatto_www.mrtwig.net.avi
\Media\TV Shows\Scrubs\Scrubs Season 5\Scrubs - S05E18 - My New Suit.avi
\Media\TV Shows\Scrubs\Scrubs Season 5\Scrubs.S05E22.PDTV.XviD-LOL.avi
\Media\TV Shows\Lost\LOST Season 2Lost - s2e13 [HDTV][XviD].avi

4. No custom regex.

Thanks so much for the help. If there's anything else I can do, let me know.

All of the naming conventions are valid, except for SouthPark - 507 - Proper Condom Use-Sirmatto_www.mrtwig.net.avi. you will have to add a regex for that.

When you add the root folder are you adding the folder "Media" or "TV Shows"?
Are tvshow.nfo files created when you exit the preferences menu?
Does the program have full access to the folders you have specified?

The error should be caught from the next version, I'm just trying to work out the cause.

1. When I add the root folder, I'm selecting the "TV Shows" folder rather than the "Media" folder.

2. tvshow.nfo files are created for each show (e.g. in /TV Shows/Arrested Development/ )

3. I think the program should have full access, but how do I check?. It does the same thing when using "Run as Administrator".


Not sure if this is helpful but here it is anyway:

After the error happens and I close XBMCMC, re-open it, click through the error message and then click on the "TV Shows" bubble, the green plus-sign "Scan for TV Shows" button becomes available. When I press it, it says "All Done" in .2 seconds and scans nothing. There's also no error after I press the button.

It may be that there is a bad nfo file messing things up.

Are there any .nfo files stored in the folders that are not valid (scene nfo files etc)

I overcame the 'Value cannot be null.' problem by deleting all my nfo's and letting MC make new ones. The new now contained '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>' which could be the cause of the problem.

When I get back from work, I'll try deleting all of my .nfo's and letting MC make new ones to see if that solves my problem as well.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> tag is not relevent to Media Companion, not having this would make no difference.

If deleting your nfo files made a difference then it must be a bad nfo file somewhere, it is likely an nfo file not created by Media Companion, such as a scene nfo. If you delete the offending file/files the program will work fine.

But I've only ever used MC to make them.

Whatever it was it's fixed now.

Looks like deleting all of my .nfo files fixed the problem. I still get a few 404 errors though during scan.

Thanks so much for the help

Correction: When I said a "few" 404 errors, that was wrong. I'm running my scan right now and I get a whole bunch of 404 errors.

I thought I deleted all of my .nfo and .tbn files, but is it possible that the 404 error occurs when MC tries to create a .nfo file and one already exists?

From the next version the TV Episode Scraper will work much like the Movie Scraper, The final output log will contain much more information so that if anybody is getting losts of 404s then you will easily be able to identify the problem.
