nfo Placement

Correct placement of the nfo file is essential. Regardless of what settings you have set for the source and scraper, Kodi will always search for and scrape a nfo file if it is available. Failing to save the file in the correct location, as detailed below, will force Kodi to either:

  1. Scrape the metadata from the online source set in your scraper or,
  2. If you have Local Info Only set as your scraper, then no entry will be made into the library.

The order of importing metadata is as follows:

  1. nfo file. If no nfo file exists then
  2. Online scraper sites (if a scraper is set in your source settings)
  3. Nothing (if Local Info Only) is set

When Kodi locates the nfo file it will load the *.nfo file and attempt to:

  1. If the nfo file contains XML data (tags), Kodi will import the meta-data directly into the library from the .nfo file or
  2. Will parse the nfo file for a direct URL to the scraper info page.


Movies require one nfo file saved as follows:

Naming & Saving conventions for your Movie *.nfo files:

Saved movies as File Name Save Location
BluRay Structure: index.nfo f:\MyMovies\Big Buck Bunny (2008)\BDMV\index.nfo
DVD Structure: VIDEO_TS.nfo f:\MyMovies\Big Buck Bunny (2008)\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.nfo
Single movie in directory: <MovieFileName>.nfo f:\MyMovies\Big Buck Bunny (2008)\<MovieFileName>.nfo
All movies in single directory: <MovieFileName>.nfo f:\MyMovies\Big Buck Bunny (2008)\<MovieFileName>.nfo
