Hi all,

Has anyone recently added any series to MythVideo and had the info populate
like this?  Or has anyone had everything work correctly?  I assume it must
be something with my system, as it hasn't been mentioned by anyone else on
the list.

I have been experimenting with moving the folder of video to different
locations and re-scanning, root folder, the films folder, but every time it
gets titled as "Season".

I also tried creating a new folder (located on the system HDD), added that
as a storage directory and then put the series in there, but the same thing
happened.

Finally, I tried a different naming method:

The Big Bang Theory > The Big Bang Theory Season 1 > 01, 02, 03 etc etc etc

But when running a new scan, myth titled the files as "The Big Bang Theory
Season", so it seems that whatever the folder name about the video files is
how they are titled.

Lastly, I tried taking a directory level out, so it was just:

The Big Bang Theory Season 1 > 01, 02, 03 etc etc etc

But this made no difference!

If there is anything I can provide to help get to the bottom of this.

If anyone else can try re-adding something to there MythVideo (re-scanning
after moving the folder out and then again after putting them back, to
remove the DB entry), that would be great.

Cheers

Martin
