All seems right, but no seasons are scraped

Hi,

I'm trying to have my series scraped to helpout on a YAMJ lbrary on an XBMC1000. However, the seasons nor episodes show up after scraping. It catches information and Fanart perfectly, but just for the main show, not for the Seasons or Episodes. My naming convention is standard as presccribed. E.g.: 24\24 Season 1\24.s01e01.avi

Can you help?

after adding the shows, are you hitting the "Scan for New TV Episodes" button? the big plus sign on the toolbar.

Yes I've used that button

I have added each season folder seperately and also the TV Show folder as root directory (finding the subdirs as seasons). The program has no problem identifying e.g. "24", but the seasons are not recognized and (therefore?) also not the episodes.

{EDIT} To be clear: I've already tried all different combinations of using the TVDB and IMDB and adding root dirs as well as seperate dirs for TV Shows and below is a dump of the scrape log (it doesn't seem to do anything???)

Starting Scan For New TV Epsiodes

Actors to Be Scraped From IMDB, will default to TVDB if IMDBID is unavailable

What version of the program are you using?

Hi Billy, this thread is also on the XBMC forum. I'll look for your answer there and post the solution here once we find it. Thanks for your quick responses!!

To clarify the situation, each show should have its own path in the preference list, adding a root adds all the folders within that root as a TV Show

Once the TV shows have been added properly several files should be added to the root of the directory, these are the fanart, season.jpg files, and most importantly the tvshow.nfo file

If this has been added then is will be possible to scrape the episodes when in tv mode. The episodes can be in the root folder or in subfolders since the scan is recursive.

The issues you are having are identical to issues people were having in older versions, but were fixed. Make sure you are using version 2.085.


If this doesn't help then be patient, I've been concentrating on movies over the last few weeks, but the way TV shows are handled will be largely rewritten within the next month or so.

I continue to get "Index was outside the bounds of the array" like a thousand times when searching for new TV shows. Also my Movies all scan in as 'Tarzan"
