I am not quite sure, actually, what exactly is the advantage when you scrape with MC and let XBMC after add the information to its library instead of letting XBMC doing it all?

By the way, is there anything I could do against it:

Quote:These letters - ä, ö, ü, ß - seem to make some problems, MC (often or always) does not find movies with titles containing these letters, so e.g.: http://i.imgur.com/VWZFSTy.png

Title is:
Sein Mädchen für besondere Fälle (1940).nfo
Sein M�dchen f�r besondere F�lle

The correct movie: http://i.imgur.com/D9XDygz.png

And here, after the bracket is something wrong, also in the column left side: http://i.imgur.com/H7ML8eG.jpg

Quote:Scraping in Media Companion has two advantages.
1. You get to check all the info for the movie, Select different artwork if you wish, and sort movie sets and such, before XBMC imports into it's database. This means, you know exactly how its going to look in XBMC.
2. Once the is scraped by MC, XBMC doesn't need to go online and scrape the data. What I mean by this is, if you trash your XBMC and have to start again (like I've had to), you aren't rescraping the same movies over and over again.
Also, if you have more than one instance of XBMC, both get the local data instead of both scraping from the Net.

Quote:As mentioned earlier, I had no issue scraping Sein Mädchen für besondere Fälle (1940) so the characters ä, ö, ü, ß were passed correctly in Media Companion for me.

Is there a way to filter by countries? E.g. only show movies produced in the U.S.A.? Or show all movies not made in the U.S.A.? Many thanks again for the new feature to show countries.

<<<<MC - If notepad++ installed, use for opening nfo XML files.
I could imagine, there is a path to adjust to open the info files in a portable notepad++, but I cannot find it.
And is there another way to open a nfo file, e.g. by double clicking somewhere: http://i.imgur.com/64Uv8AK.png?

Question about this:

Code:

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

Is this a normal error?

Great, now I can eaisly open the nfo files in the portable Notepad++, many thanks.

Might the ratings come form different databases, IMDB, TMDB? Can one show the database, so IMDB, TMDB the ratings come from? And how could I get ratings only from e.g. IMDB?
