I haven't used it exhaustively since you posted r1, but from what I've seen it looks pretty slick! I'll of course let you know if I see any anomalies Smile

Downloaded the rc1 version just before work so didn't have time to check itout much but two things were directly noticable from the 023 release.

1. The movie list was in a green bold font, did you change the font to something that couldn't be found on my system?

2. The (re)scraping from IMDB didn't work for 3/4 movies and it said to check the internet connection.

Will investigate further when I get home.

It now keeps track of what movies it knows about. If it's a new movie it will be green in the list. Since it's your first time using the new version, it thinks ALL movies are new. Once you close and re-open, they will return to black.

For 2, please post on the Issue List or I'll forget to look at it. lol

All seems to be working well so far.

In regards to Studio icons, instead of having a folder in Ember and a folder in XBMC could you make it possible to just like to the XBMC folder and use the same one. Then I only have to keep one folder up to date Smile

Hi,

First, le me thank you for your great job...

I started testing your app since v0.23 and I have the same problem with rc1

The Media count is set to 116 (my actual number of movies) but it only displays the 4 first movies.

Did I miss something with the settings ?

Regards

check in your movie folders for dodjy .nfo files..... someone else posted this problem in the previous pages...


- koscica - 2009-05-14

I tryed the new version and I cannot se whether it solved my non stacking problem since now it only finds a single movie file and ignores the rest. All my files are in a single root folder.

I tryed adding another source but it only finds a single file even with multiple sources

OK I found the problem....
For the following situation, the program will stop loading the movies :

Movie1 Folder> Movie1.mkv
Movie1 Folder> Movie1.nfo
---> OK
Movie2 Folder> Other Movie Folder>Movie2.mkv
Movie2 Folder> Other Movie Folder>Movie2.nfo
----> Not OK

ill took the latest mediaflags from the aeon forum. diffed them, inverted them, and rigged up a xml file for EMM rc1 with 124 more studio icons. just stuff the flags into the Studio folder and c&p the xml content to the Studio.xml file in the same folder.

maybe nul7 can add them in his next release .....

It would be nice to have an option to automatically create thumbs during autopilot, similar to the tool here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=50535...

I find it creates fairly decent thumbs. Then, if you manually select thumbs using the built in tool in Ember, it would overwrite thumb1, thumb2 since these are the ones the skins (aeon) selects first, then scrolls through the rest. It would just be nice to *have* thumbs for every movie, then if you manually select ones you like it will use them. Just a thought...

I'm not sure if I should post this on the google code page...

Great work Mason, although your missing some > in your XML. There are a few "<name" without the last ">"

It's possible, but the XBMC installation may not be available at all times. I have mine running on a different computer that I shut off when not in use. Would suck to have to turn it on every time I wanted to mess with Ember. lol

Do you have anything in your error log?

If you could, please add an issue here:

http://code.google.com/p/embermediamanager/issues/list

with any more info you can provide. I either can't reproduce this bug, or am misunderstanding your folder structure.

Yes, please add it to GC or I'll forget about it. lol

Same problem..!

No POSTER.jpg fix?


- nul7 - 2009-05-14

r10 is available in the first post. This is a bugfix release only. Please verify the following issues were fixed:

ID:1 Status bar is black
ID:2 EMM opening below other windows
ID:8 IMDB single scraper not working in some instances

EDIT: This version also contains the Studio updates from Mason (with dupes cleaned). Although, I may have screwed it up because after uploading r10, I went to close the Studios.xml file and it asked me to save my changes. lol Oh well... if all the new ones don't work in this version, they will in the next. lol


- nul7 - 2009-05-14

Oh, and to anyone checking out the source... sorry for the lack of comments on my commits. I have to get used to doing that. lol
