[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 958180, member: 18896"] Some other site mentioned they are the same. And "Finder" is the one creating double files with the same name. Tell the "Finder" developers to quit using the exact same name then. If they had used "filename.mp4.finder" then MediaPortal and/or MP-TVSeries would not have discovered another copy. Right now the plugin is doing what you are telling it to do. You add a copy of the same file, so it imports it twice. If you did not mean to add another copy, then stop adding one :) Apple provides a fix for this as per the link I already gave you. If you absolutly insist that the Apple way is correct and that MP-TVSeries should ignore the duplicate files, then you will have to adjust the regular expression based parsing expression to ignore the ".AppleDouble" entries found, the same way "samples" are ignored.
