Hello,

I have recently upgraded to XBCM and using the fantastic xTV skin. However, been having problems with the Library - some of the problems have been sorted out by the kind people in the xbox-scene forum - and they have suggested asking here.

Problem:

At first I could not get any of my TV Shows to appear correctly in the Library - The folder the episodes were in could be seen, but none of the actual episodes within.

This was corrected but now one season of a TV show does not show up, but the first one does. All of them show correctly except season 2 of Hyperdrive - which is really strange as season 1 shows up perfectly and I used the same naming convention for the second season:

The ones that do show are in a fodler: TVShows/Hyperdrive/Season 1/Hyperdrive - s01e01 - A Gift from the Glish.avi etc etc

The ones that don't show are in another folder: TVShows/Hyperdrive/Season 2/Hyperdrive - s02e01 - Green Javelins.avi etc etc

I have 'set content' on the TVShows folder set to TVshows - using TVdb.com

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Have you tried simply rescanning the Hyperdrive folder? I've noticed it doing partial scans sometimes, and I think it's just timeout issues with the site taking to long to respond and the scraper moving on without finishing. If so simply forcing it to rescrape the show should resolve the issue.

I had a similar problem, and in a fit of rage, deleted the MyVideo34.db (or whatever the video database is named) and had the xbox start from scratch. It worked.

I managed to get it to work by renaming the files:

hyperdrive - 2x01.Green Javelin.avi etc etc

Did the rescan and it was ok

Obviously something about the way these are in the database is a little different.

Really love the XBMC - new live to an old product.
