    I still have a few questions:

    Is the plug-in automatically updating, when episodes are added?
    - I think so, but not sure if i´ve done it right.

    Say, i started acquiring a new series That is not in the database, yet, are these added automatically?
    - If not, is there a way to do this?

    Lastly, I can´t seem to get the fan art working..... help????
    - Using the latest everything, and added the pics in the "media portal\thumbs\Fan Art\" directory.

    :D in advance...

    In the context menu for TV series you can select Action->Force Local Scan. That should take care of your first two issues.

    hola vetlel, ill answer in english for the rest if you dont mind.

    1) whenever you place a new episode file into the directory that is configured in mytvseries settings it will recognize it automatically, in case that mytvseries does not know which serie it is it will display a list for u to select.

    2) if a series is not in the database (u mean in the internet db where all info is get,right?) what i did was to submit the information to thetvdb.com where mp finds all the series information. it will take you not very long and then everyone benefits. what serie it is? i can help u if u dont know how to do it.

    3) dont know about this one. sometimes fan art does not work for me. but if u have lastest everything + correct file names for the fan art + correct folder, then it should work.

    any other question or explanation, just ask.


    un saludo

    it should do it automatically, but try that also just in case.

    By default the Plugin will automatically scan your specified directories to see if anything new is added. If it finds a new episode it will add it automatically, if it finds a new Series then within MP it will present you with a window to select the Series.

    As specified by janbo you can also force a local scan within MP.

    With regards to the Fan Art are you using Vista or XP as the location is different?

    Thank you, I was hoping for something like this! Just couldn´t find any settings for this...
    With all the configuring, I lost my way a bit ;)
