Collections not collecting all films

[wolf359 6]

I have the auto collections set up on the server and it is pulling any collection with over 3 films

 

In the James Bond collection it is only showing 9 films. I see that its pointing to the correct place to find the films

http://www.themoviedb.org/collection/645

 

All of my films are named the same way and all the JB films are on the same drive, is there a reason for only nine showing up?

Check your movie.xml files for the missing movies and make sure they have a line for <TMDbCollectionId>645</TMDbCollectionId>

I have checked my xml data and the films all have this line in them.

 

Also I have checked the MB auto set location and in the JB collection file 645 all the shortcuts for the films are in there with mblink file extention

I had the same problem with the James Bond collection, tried everything and in the end cleaning out the boxset folder fixed it for me: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/4287-max-number-of-items-in-a-boxset/

Two things I would like to add to this:

1) I have a couple of cases where even though it has the TMDB tag set up, nothing is being made ([REC] series, for example). I'll assume it's some sort of bug, so I figured I'd let it be known.

 

2) How would I go about manually adding/editing the entries/metadata? For instance, I want to make a few collections that don't fit with the tmdb collection scheme, (add avengers to the iron man collection, for instance, or even create entire collections that don't exist as far as those collections are concerned), along with a couple of instances where the bug mentioned in 1) affects single movies (the first Iron Man movie isn't added even though 2 + 3 are, to keep with that example).

 

Oh, and I forgot to mention - I've tried the shortcut thing from the manually creating box set thing, as well as creating the box sets myself, and when I try one that fits my "doesn't exist on TMDB" thing it doesn't show up, or even if it's the thing in the single movie thing (ex. Iron Man). (I'm using MBT, if that makes any difference).

 

Thanks in advance.
