[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1239706, member: 109222"] Hi. You may have a look into "Videos" section... If a movie could not be identified properly it is imported nevertheless, but not in movies section but in videos. Every movie is a video (same is for series) so at first the generic information (path, filename, container, codec,...) valid for any type of video is read by the video "importer" (official name is metadata extractor, that's why I set it in "") If it is possible then the extra information like "tt number", moviename, description, fanart,... ist read by the movie" importer" and the video then is shown in "movies". If this did not work (means the video could not be identified), then the video is to find in "videos". If the video isn't available in "videos" too, then something went terribly wrong. This normally only happens if the video file is damaged or the drive could not be accessed during import... Best is to name the video file properly, means ad the IMDB-ID (the tt number) to the filename and MP2 will identify the movie with ease. You also can use .nfo files and local fanart. Then you have full control over everything, which poster to use, wich sorttitle, wich description,... .nfo could be created automatically by various tools like TinyMediaManager or my own tool Media-Buddy (formerly known as MKV-Buddy) Yes, AVI is fully supported by MP2...
