[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1133543, member: 109222"] Hi. The .nfo files must somehow be compatible with the ones Kodi (former known as XBMC) is generating. If you want to do those files by hand, you best have a look at their wiki. But you can use tools for this to make it a lot easier to achieve what you want. Media Managers like tinyMediaManager [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/tinymediamanager-the-media-manager-for-mediaportal-win-mac-linux.121731/[/URL] or, especially if you like MKV, with my program MKV Buddy: [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mkv-buddy-tool-to-help-handling-of-videos.127297/[/URL] Series are atm don't have nfo support. And another thing that is not good on using .iso for series is, you only can add one episode per file to the MediaLibrary so if your ISO contains e.g. episodes 01, 02, 03, 04, and 05 of a season you only will see episode #01 in MP2. MP1 is able to handle a maximum of 2 episodes in one file. Looks better but this will not change in future. MP2 will be able to have an unlimited number of episodes in a single file in about some month, probably half a year. For this the future is looking better in MP2... Nevertheless you can playback all episodes out of an ISO file. Also only the first episode is shown in GUI, this did not prevent the playback of the other episodes. Up to now I only can suggest to make single episodes MKV out of the ISO files (with the Tool MakeMKV) and then add metatags and .nfo to them with MKV Buddy. The whole procedure won't take long (not much more than to copy the ISO files from one disk to another) and you have nice and handy MKV files without any quality loss. The manual of MKV Buddy is about 50 pages and has a lot of tips and tricks to offer... [/QUOTE]
