rhodges 37 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Add support for a movie.nfo file in the same directory of a movie. http://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/Movies Moviename.nfo placed next to Moviename.avi where Moviename is the name of the movie file.movie.nfo if you use the "Use Foldername for Lookups" option, movie.nfo takes priority over any other .nfo files.

Luke 37082 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 If there is only one .nfo file in a folder, The scraper will use it for all media files in that folder. If there is only one nfo, then what does it matter what the name is? Or do you mean add support for us to read the file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodges 37 Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 I kept seeing a lot of Moviename.xml errors in my log until I renamed all my movie.nfo files to moviename.nfo. (I have 0 xml files). It looked to me that it wasn't finding my nfo file and was falling back to the EmbyXml provider. I was poking around github (for all of 5 minutes, so I'm sure I missed a lot) and I was looking at BaseVideoNfoProvider.GetXmlFile which calls to MovieNfoSaver.GetMovieSavePaths and I didn't see anything in there for a *.nfo lookup. I'm sure I'm not looking in all the places. I did poke around before posting the feature request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8289 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Did you change the metadata reader order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodges 37 Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) Yes. I verified Nfo is before Emby Xml. I don't have the savers option, but I am not saving metadata back into the movie folders. I am using the nfo files for identification only. Edit: I am on Version 3.0.5781.5 Edited December 11, 2015 by rhodges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
