Hi,
I have been using XBMC (in Windows 7 on a regular HDD no symlinks or junctions anywhere) for a week now and I love it. However, I have one problem with my TV Shows. I have TV shows in a directory structure (E:\TV Shows\<Show Name>\Season\Show_S0xExx_Title). I have no scraping issues.
I usually watch a TV show and delete it when I am done. There are some shows that I want to get around to but I don't. So I have about 10 shows 8 of them with no episodes in them (because they are current and I delete as soon as I watch them). When I first add to the library, it shows all the TV Shows. Then when it gets refreshed again, 8 of the shows are removed, probably because there are no shows in them. However, when I add a new episode to one of those 8 shows, I expect that to appear again when I refresh the library. It does not happen. If I add a new episode to an existing show, it appears, but if a show was removed, then new episodes added to that folder don't show up even if I manually refresh the sources. I have tried Library watchdog as well as Library auto updated addons and still the result is the same.
So here's my question.
Is it possible to show TV shows in the library that have just empty folders and metadata, but no episodes ? Also, it should remain that way over library refreshes, i.e. the TV shows should not be removed just because there are no episodes right now.
P.S. I have searched for this topic and have not found any thing helpful :-(
