Paw Patrol S07E01E02.nfo 9.36 kB · 0 downloads That NFO is not formatted correctly, as <episodedetails> tag should be top-level tag, as opposed to <multiepisodenfo> in example NFO. As <multiepisodenfo></multiepisodenfo>is unknown tag, anything contained within that node is not being read. You either need to disable writing of said tag in Media Companion (if feasible, not using it so wouldn't know) or use an alternate software.

Paw Patrol S07E01E02.nfo 9.36 kB · 1 download Will test but this is a different design layout. When was <multiepisodenfo> node added? But does not follow the Kodi standards per their kb though. So this would be another required change if this is added. @Luke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searching the kodi codebase yields no results and also found this: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/16506 Granted, it's always possible that it's supported in kodi but the code is somewhere else for it.

sydlexius 243 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 At least Media Companion took a stab at making an XML file more compliant by having only a unique root node for that...better than the garbage cooked up by whoever is responsible for that XBMC/Kodi mess. Still, thank you @Lukefor making something bug-compatible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, given the Kodi Wiki example for a multi-episode.nfo file shows no mention of that element. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worthmo 10 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 This was the response from the media companion discussion. I see Kodi has set that multi-episode data in a nfo be contained in repetitive \< episodedetails> tags but this causes xml syntax error of: XML Parsing Error - Only one top level element is allowed in an XML document But Kodi also supports the original method of wrapping \< episodedetails> tag within the \< multiepisodenfo> tag, still allowing for legitimate XML file. Media Companion still uses the \< multiepisodenfo> tag as this does not break the xml file making it impossible to load. As this works for Media Companion, and for Kodi, there is no reason to make any changes to MC's current method of writing multi episode nfo's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
