    I've not "confirmed the movies to the db" yet, due to the importer not being able to match the local movie to the correct movie info.

    The only way I can think of to add the movies is to do it manually, seomthing I have yet to take the time to do.

    I've tried that, but it doesn't work. When I use the IMDB-ID for "Gunsmoke - The last stand", the importer finds "Have I Got News for You". I've used that technique on some of the movies, but for the movies I listed it does not work.

    Hi zicoz

    I don't understand why it does not work for you because its always worked for me, I have even tried it with some of the movies you listed and it matched 100% after I gave it the correct IMDB-ID. Perhaps you changed something in the default matching settings?

    Hm, that's weird. I've tried various import settings aswell, the default IMDB scraper, the "english title" scraper and movieDB as main source. I guess I'll just wait for the next release of MP and hope that it solves itself, it's not as if it's movies I watch over and over. :)

    Update: Problem solved! The electronic program guides (tvguide.xml) have been successfully transferred to MediaPortal. The issue stemmed from the corruption of one or both of the mc2xml.dat and/or mc2xml.exe files, for an unknown reason. Consequently, even though the tvguide.xml file appeared to be updated, its content kept being an...

    My problem is that I would like to switch from Kodi to Mediaportal. In Kodi, putting an Extras folder in the same folder as the movie automatically manages all the extras on the Bluray, so my library is organized in this way. Moving everything would be a very long job (I have more than 2800 movies), plus I would lose the Extras...
