Hi,

I'm testing this great tool and there's something I don't understand quite well this part in the description (is highlighted):

2) Using an external media manager The second option is to use a media manager to generate .nfo files for each of the episodes. In order to make the staged items visible to media managers, click on "Generate all metadata items" while viewing the Seinfeld episodes. This will generate a folder for Seinfeld in Metadata/TV/ and populate it with empty files, and the titles will be appended by '-0x0'. This tag is so the media manager will recognize the file as an episode.

Have your favorite media manager (MediaElch works great) scan the Metadata/TV/ directory. It will find all the items that have generated metadata items. Now, you can create .nfo files and download artwork automatically for every episode and tvshow. Once you've gotten .nfo files saved with the correct episode numbers, you are ready to add the episodes.

MediaElch find the "episodes" but they are all seen as season 0. How can I scape starting from file name ?

Hi,

As far as I remember the addon I try to identify the episode ID and when it fails to leave it as 0x0, more info here.

In my tests, the kodi can recognize the episode only with the id.

if you are trying to test my fork, I submitted his changes to the original dev, I'm just waiting to see if he will approve or not. All my updates is around episode detection and categorize, now i suppose is working and the episode id will be created.

I tested it on my SHIELD but without success.

Your pull request make the script compatible with Kodi 19?

Hi,

I tested it this morning and it does not works properly. No matter the selection I made (for movies) it always add content as TV shows. And the tv shows contents are not added even to stage. I run it on a nvidia shield if this may help.

Hey,

If you are using version 7.x.x, you need to delete the database, as I rewrote all the code, the database is incompatible with version 4.x.x.

About version 7.x.x, some managed/staged functions may not be working 100%, I decided to rewrite some more pieces of code and completely remove the "Metadata" folder and keep only two folders "movies" and "tvshows".

This will require deleting all FOLDERS in the "managed" directory and recreating all strm and metadata.

This is a exemple of the future file structure:

Good luck.
