I added 3 movies, out of the 3 it picked up 2 and imported. I restarted MP multiple times but it still wouldn't pick it up. Added 2 more movies afterwards, it picked up those movies but again not this one.

Is there is a way to manually add a movie if it doesn't pick it up automatically?

    Try cleaning out your "logs" folder and do another import. Also check if it's ended up in Moving Pictures' "Ignored files". If so, you can restore it.
    As a last resort, try renaming the folder it's in slightly to trick the importer into seeing is as a different Movie. It's a bit picky sometimes, I have had movies show up only after trying several re-imports.

    Thank for your reply.

    I just happened to need to add another movie into that folder, when I did that, MovPictures automatically picked up the other movie.
