First of all, I haven’t posted in some time. I poked all around for the instructions about how to upload files for support… but for the life of me… I cant find that information again. I want to do this right rather than waste peoples time. I have several hundred movies scanned in and have been enjoying my experience with Kodi.17.1. I have a number of home videos that of course dont show up since they cant be scraped. It looked like the solution was to create .nfo files for each one of these? Fist off… i am confused by the Kodi Wiki instructions. 99% of my movies are succesfully scraped. If I create .nfo files for my home videos that wont interfere with adding and scraping new files for DVD’s that are in IMDB
Will Kodi get meta data that is available but use the .nfo files for the movies that have .nfo files of the same name? Or do I need to have Kodi create .nfo files for all movies if I plan to use any nfo files at all?
I copied the example .nfo from Kodi Wiki. Named it the same as the movie file. Then tried to update my library. The movie still doesnt show up. I also saved a thumbnail .png file in the same directry. Here is the .nfo file I created for my sons wedding movie that I am trying to have show up in the movies.
What am I doing wrong? And where do I find instructions for uploading files when posting to support?
Thanks
