    SOLVED: Videos not reading local NFO

    Music videos with movie.nfo files being ignored, going straight to IMVDB

    I have a load of music videos, all in their own folders, and use local NFO files for metadata as lookups are often wrong. The Wiki says that videos use same protocol as movies, so either media-name.nfo or movie.nfo should work. Up until now movie.nfo seemed to be working fine. Not sure if it is 10.10.5 or 10.10.4 but this seems to have stopped working, added some new videos and the NFOs are ignored, with metadata taken from IMVDB (which is picking entirely incorrect videos). I've tried using MEDIANAME.NFO instead of MOVIE.NFO in the folders, but makes no difference - just seems to be ignoring the local NFO, or over-writing it with IMVDB info.
