Force a directory to not be categorized as a TV Show

[sonnaps 4]

I have a main directory called Comedy, under which I have several directories named as below:

 

X:\Comedy\Chris Rock

X:\Comedy\Louis C.K

X:\Comedy\Jeff Dunham

X:\Comedy\Sebastian Maniscalco

etc.

 

Under each sub folder I have comedy specials as the media.

 

The problem one is Chris Rock.  This keeps getting categorized as a TV Show, even though I just want it to be setup as a directory or boxset.  All the others seem to work fine, but the Chris Rock one keeps generating a tvshow.nfo file.  How can I keep this from happening?  I tried deleting the nfo and manually adding a collection.xml file similar to the real boxsets I have under the Collections category.  This didn't help.  It just keeps regenerating that nfo file.  I have my Comedy collection set to Mixed Content.

Collections.xml are no longer honored within any folder.  I don't believe there currently is a way to resolve this.  What is the content in that folder?

Does the Chris Rock folder have a sub-folder named "Season" or videos with episode numbers?

 

This is one of the problems with trying to use "Mixed Content".  If we're trying to support multiple types of content in the same place certain conditions can fool the system.

 

I suggest using a different content type if possible.

Home videos may have been a better choice for the library content type.

I tried using Movies and it just puts all the individual movies in there.  It doesn't stay grouped into one folder or boxset.

 

**Update - You were right, one of my files was names S01E01 since it was a special on a network series and not a stand alone movie or comedy show.  Renaming that one fixed it back the way I want it.  Thanks!!
