Adding Mainstream Sporting Events ... Like UFC Events

[riegersn]

I have 2 PPV UFC events in my local video folder. Boxee thinks they are some random movies. I'm having a hard time figuring out if boxee is even able to detect these videos. Where does boxee get its info? Are there multiple sources?

UFC.86.Jackson.vs.Griffin.PPV.720p.mkv
UFC.88.Breakthrough.PPV.720p.mkv

hi riegersn

it tries to scan these videos (boxee uses imdb) .what does it display? can you manually try to recognize them...i assume that boxee does not return any cover art ...

I checked imdb. ufc 88 isn't in it's database hower ufc 86 is. I renamed the file to exactly what the title is in IMDB. Still no go. Its listed in IMDB as "TV" but I tried recognize with both, no luck. It identifies ufc 88 breakthrough as http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0042282/. It wont recognize ufc 86 at all (even though 86 is listed on IMDB.

if it is not in the imdb database not a lot we can do ,however we try and look into these issues ...you could try and add a folder.jpg into these directories and then you will have a cover art...not saying this is the perfect solution
