Any time that I play a 5.1 file after a 2.0 file, it plays as stereo. If I stop the song, and then immediately resume playback, it plays correctly as 5.1. All subsequent 5.1 files will play just fine, until I play another 2.0 file. Then, 5.1 files star...

Hello all, Do R-Pis support .mkv files because I have an R-Pi 1 and 2 and neither will play .mkv files. I did look in the sticky in this section and it doesn't mention .mkv files in 'Video and audio formats the Raspberry Pi can playback '. Thanks, Nick.

Hi! I've tried installing Kore. The Sync of Movies worked immediately, the Sync of Artists took time, but I don't have any TV Shows in Kore (even though Kodi shows more than 500) and I don't have any Albums or Music Videos in Kore either. Is there so...

Hi, Love Metropolis, my favorite skin by far. I have a small issue that I tried googling, searching, etc but can't seem to find (likely cause of the words being too common). Anyhow I don't use the movie sets setting because I don't want to automatica...

So I started noticed some odd picture color media player, during video playback with DXVA on. I noticed then when I decided to play a video file with windows media player. Colors were better, felsh tones were correct, etc. Basically overall PQ was bett...

This is something that I've never really mastered and have decided to get to the bottom of it.

I have a DVD with 15 Tom and Jerry episodes from various years and it's been ripped to video_ts which sits inside a folder with a rather long name given that it has all the episodes in the folder name (e.g. s1941e01.s1941.e04 and so on). Anyway, that all works fine - it scrapes perfectly and all the episodes are present and correct and the artwork is all marvellous. The series title is (unsurprisingly) "Tom and Jerry".

Now, I want it to use a different title, namely "Tom and Jerry (China)". Obviously, I could post-process rename it, but that's no good because I have multiple copies of the same episode from various sources (I'm a T&J geek!) and I like to keep them separate! Moving on... I need a tvinfo.nfo, so I create one. Here's the problem: if I do this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<tvshow>
<title>Tom and Jerry (China)</title>
<episodeguide>
<url>http://thetvdb.com/api/1D62F2F90030C444/series/72860/all/en.zip</url>
</episodeguide>
</tvshow)

all the episode are fine and the new title is accepted, but the show itself is missing all the details.

The URL http://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/TV_shows says "The *.nfo file contains a URL of the information page to scrape. The file can include other information (i.e. scene info), Kodi will scan through it and use a relevant URL if a match is found." Sounds perfect! But what it doesn't say is where to put the Show URL in the nfo file. So, if I guess, and just chuck it at the end:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<tvshow>
<title>Tom and Jerry (China)</title>
<episodeguide>
<url>http://thetvdb.com/api/1D62F2F90030C444/series/72860/all/en.zip</url>
</episodeguide>
</tvshow)
http://thetvdb.com/?tab=seasonall&id=72860&lid=7

It is ignored - same result as without the last line (so episodes and title are all fine, but no tv show info).

Is there a correct way to do this?

TIA
