Play home movies and downloaded videos

1st Official Post

    Hello,

    Just trying to get back into LibreELEC now that I have a use case again. I've thrown together a Raspberry PI 3 for the kids to use in the van's entertainment system. I've got all of our movies and the couple shows we own digitized and playing perfectly. How does everyone get their non-scrape able videos into Kodi and organized?

    Thanks!

    Separate the media that won't scrape into it's own source and the create .nfo files; set the source to use/scrape local data only and it won't waste time trying to obtain info from online sources. In some cases the other route is to register an account and add the movies to TMDB/TVDB so they scrape online correctly. I've done that for a bunch of foreign language films I have.

    It could also be how the Movies, TV shows are named. Naming Convention.

    So a file named TheMatrix.mkv will probably fail, whereas The Matrix (1999).mkv will work.

    Also with TV Shows add season and episode - Lost (S01E01).mkv

    There's also an add-on called Missing Movies that will list all non found Movies and TV Shows.
