<section begin="intro" />For your TV and Movie video files to work, they have to be structured in a way for Kodi and the Movie/TV database websites to read and organise. The files that Kodi download from these sites are called metadata and these bits of data can include cast info, DVD covers, thumbnails, and more.<section end="intro" />


== Preparing files ==
Bit about metadata, this can be stored within folder, or folders left empty and let kodi download.
Bit about TVDB/Movie database/IMDB, and how they orgainise Movies/TV Shows.
This is called scarping.
What happens if this doesn't work. 1, Google the right name of Movie/year and TV Show/year, look up on respective site, or 3, create NFO yourself (last one as last resort!!
