Boxee not updating movie or tv lists

**knoxor** · March 11th, 2010, 12:55 PM

Hi,

I have boxee on my appleTV and I also have a NAS on my network. I've mounted my movies and tv shows folders from my NAS onto the appleTV using the settings menu from Boxee. The network drives mount ok and they are connected. I can browse each of the network locations.

The problem is that when I select the Movies (or TV Shows) menu items in Boxee I get the screen telling me that "Boxee is scannin the Movies folder on your computer. ... etc"

I've left this on for 1/2hr + but don't get my movies lists updated.

Anyone else had this problem ?

thanks

Depending upon the size of your movie folder, it can take an hour or more to show a single movie. My ATV and windows machines don't show a single thing for the first 1.25 hrs as I have 300 movies. It can be slow at times......

Thanks for the reply, I have about the same number of movies. I'll just leave boxee running and see if it picks them up

I've got the same problem and after more than a week I can say that I'm still getting the same message
I've tried to manually scan it to no avail.
Any suggestions?

Trust me F1reman, Patience is the word. . . Same thing happened to me, I think it took about a week but remember that I would take the laptop to work, bring it back, then connect to the source again... sometimes the computer would sleep at night, so basically you just gotta be patient.

good luck mate

Ok, I've tried "Patience" but it doesn't work

It doesn't recognize the the movies on the ATV and not the ones on my network.
Any ideas?
