XBMC Compatible Artwork Question

[Tech127 20]

XBMC Metadata Saver v1.0.5250.24803

MB3 v3.0.5271.29451

 

I am currently in the process of organizing my library to make sure I have everything in order before doing away with MySQL and upgrading to Gotham.  MB3 does a remarkable job of this.  A place XBMC really fails IMO.

 

If I allow the info to populate automatically after adding the folder/movie to my collection, it will look like this:

 

/Batman Begins (2005).mkv

/Batman Begins (2005).nfo

/Batman Begins (2005).xml

/Batman Begins (2005)-banner.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-clearart.png

/Batman Begins (2005)-disc.png

/Batman Begins (2005)-fanart.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-fanart1.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-fanart2.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-fanart3.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-fanart4.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-logo.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-poster.jpg

/Batman Begins (2005)-trailer.mov

 

There are no thumbs being retrieved, no /extrathumbs or /extrafanart folders being created and the naming is completely different

 

If I delete the above and manually refresh in the metadata manager, it looks like this:

 

/Alien (1979).mkv

/Alien (1979).nfo

/Alien (1979)-trailer.mp4

/banner.jpg

/clearart.png

/disc.png

/fanart.jpg

/landscape.jpg

/logo.png

/movie.xml

/poster.jpg

/extrafanart/fanart1.jpg

/extrafanart/fanart2.jpg

/extrafanart/fanart3.jpg

/extrafanart/fanart4.jpg

/extrafanart/fanart5.jpg

/extrathumbs/thumb1.jpg

/extrathumbs/thumb2.jpg

/extrathumbs/thumb3.jpg

/extrathumbs/thumb4.jpg

/extrathumbs/thumb5.jpg

 

My folder structure is /Movies/Movie Name (year)/ so it isn't an issue of everything being lumped together.  If I'm not mistaken, the second way above is the proper way for this to be done, correct?

 

What do I need to do to fix this?  I am more than happy to try anything needed and/or provide additional information (logs, etc)

So does nobody know or has this been explained and I missed it in search?
