    Default Top Gear not showing up

    Now that I have my audio problem fixed I am having a issue with Top Gear UK version.

    I have renamed the season to match what I believe Boxee calls out to do

    Top.Gear.S15E1.720p.mkv

    I have all the seasons and season 1-3 only show up.
    So does boxee use IMDB for scraping?
    When I look up Top Gear on IMDB there are few versions of that show.
    http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=top+gear
    It looks like it should be using the 2002 version.
    How can I tell Boxee to see that one?

    Thanks for your help.

    Is this for Boxee of Boxee Box you has the same question in both?

    If you need to manually identify the shows, go to the episode you listed above, you will see "identify file". Select that and the input screen should show up. Enter in Top Gear. Once the selections come up, select the correct Top Gear for you. You may also see an option to "apply this to the other files in this folder" select this and Boxee "should" go down the list and mark the episdoed correctly. I had to do this for my Breaking Bad Season1 and it worked perfectly.

    Default top gear not showing up in boxee

    Ok folks, I have researched this and followed all the threads but with no luck, because Top Gear was still not showing up. And, when I add it in manually, it comes up under shows but once I turn boxee off, it disappears. Even though I could always access it from the files section in the menu so I know it was there.

    I found the solution to my problem at last and I believe it could be your solution too.

    Check your settings in the boxee, there is an option that tells boxee to ignore files less than a certain size, (mine was set to 500MB). I changed that to 0 and viola, all the seasons from Top Gear showed up under shows.
    The format for the file name need to be "Top Gear - S01E01" and that is it. I hope it solves your problems too. Joe.
