Hello. I am new to Kodi and have run into a problem with my video content and was hoping someone could provide assistance. I have searched wiki and these forums and haven’t found a solution that has worked. I have purchased a new Nividia Shield TV. I am using a 2tb Seagate HDD plugged into the Shield TV. I loaded the HDD with 3 movies to test prior to loading all of my movie content. I followed naming conventions for video files listed on wiki. I have a Kodi install of 17.1. The default skin of confluence.
Kodi recognizes the HDD and I can play the movies by drilling down into the video section or file management. I wanted to add my library and scrap the files. I went to Video –> Files –> my HDD listed automatically (if I browsed my HDD wasn’t listed) –> brought up the context menu for my HDD –> set as library -> set up to scrap preferences –> clicked ok -> it scrapped my library and set up a movies folder.
When I back out of videos and go to home screen there is a new Movies section and it shows my 3 movies above it. However when I drill into the movies section no files are located. If I go back to Videos and drill down there is the new Movies folder and it listed above Files – Playlist – Video add-ons. When I drill into the movies folder no movies are shown only the different categories such as genre. If go back to the previous screen and select Files below the Movies folder then I see my HDD listed. If I drill down into the HDD my movies are not listed.
Again, I can play the movies from the home screen but nothing seems to scrap for the files don’t show up under the new movie section.
I appreciate any help.
Clint
