RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - PREM1Z - 2018-07-08

Thanks for this great app! But i have one issue. I used file renamer, for movies its working, but when i use for tv shows, not rename, add +S01E01 and also extension. Im using latest version 2.4.3-dev_2018-07-08_13-37_git-master-d6b91f7

What are your settings in the "Renamer" dialog window? :-)
Below is a screenshot of the default settings. <title> will be replaced by the episodes title (your episodes need to have title of course).

Please use a "Dry Run" before actually renaming your files.

Andre

Same default settings, but always add episode name and extension again and again Big Grin
Here is dry run:

Wow... That shouldn't happen...
Is any of your movies a symbolic link/shortcut to another file?
Are your settings really exactly the same? If so, could you go to "About -> Developers" and give me all information there? Example:

You can strip the paths (i.e. remove your username / anonymize it). I'll try to reproduce and fix that.

No shortcut or link, just a folder. Renamed to like this now, and when i scrape and rename from this, again not replace, just adds S01E01 and also mkv.mkv.

In this Series folder all of tv shows is renamed with same, but with other folder with Movies is working and dunno why. Sad

Ps: Not something wrong with get filenames? https://imgur.com/a/x2jbaY3


RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - 476429 - 2018-07-09

In Settings, I enabled Ignore Articles When Sorting ("The"). It looks like it's a little confused as to what an "article" is.

My list of movies now contains: "Hard, Die". Smile

Any way to fix this?

Thanks

No, that's intended. The first S01E01 is the actual season and episode number parsed by MediaElch. The rest of the name is the original file name. :-)
But "Boruto - ... " shouldn't look like that. Seems like I've forgotten to check for too long titles there. I thought that I had fixed that.
PS: I've opened an issue on GitHub for your renamer bug: https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/issues/513
I wasn't able to reproduce it, yet.

"Die" is a German article. Smile
Please have a look at the "Advanced Settings": https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/blob/master/doc/AdvancedSettings.md
In the XML file there's a tag "sorttokens": https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/blob/master/doc/advancedsettings.xml
These are all default articles:

<sorttokens>
<token>Der</token>
<token>Die</token>
<token>Das</token>
<token>The</token>
<token>Le</token>
<token>La</token>
<token>Les</token>
<token>Un</token>
<token>Une</token>
<token>Des</token>
</sorttokens>


Copy `advancedsettings.xml` and remove the articles that you don't want.

Andre

RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Punkid - 2018-07-12

Does Mediaelch support reading id3v2.4 tags from music files? I am having trouble getting it to work. It only basically reads my artist and album folders and does not read the musicbrainz IDs ive tagged the files with.


RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - bugwelle - 2018-07-12

Currently MediaElch does not load any details from the actual audio files (mp3/...). ME only searches for artists and albums. Smile

I am also having trouble scraping tv shows. It retrieves most of the info but none of the artwork. All default settings

Thanks for reporting this. Has it worked before? I'm asking because I haven't changed anything regarding the file searcher (or so I think). I'll look into this.
Do have examples where it doesn't work? What names do your TvShow, show folder and artwork file have?

Regards,
Andre


RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Punkid - 2018-07-13

Ok so i just tried copying the files to my desktop and then trying it, and it KIND OF worked. It retrieved the information,  but didnt get the images itself, i had to manually add them. Then i tried with a network mapped drive and it worked the same. 

Example of my folder structure: The Flash (2014) > Season 1 > The Flash 01x01 - Blabla.mkv

I must say that Mediaelch worked flawlessly for my movies, which are also on a mapped network share (Z:\Movies)

I've been unable to access the image selection window in MediaElch for some time now. When I click the empty image placeholder in the main window, it is as if another window pops up but I can't see it. I can escape out of it with ESC, back into the main window. I've tried searching the forums here and could only find a suggestion about multiple monitors. Added a second monitor, but to no avail. It's rendered the software all but unusable for me. Can anyone suggest how to fix it? Running Windows 10, 64 bit, 4D monitor, MediaElch 2.4.3-dev-Talax. Many thanks.

Ok. Please try this:
Close MediaElch and open "regedit.exe" (Registry Editor) and go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/kvibes/MediaElch"/ImageDialog. Delete the key "Pos". Then open MediaElch again and try opening the image chooser. The position should be reset to its default value.

I hope this fixes your issue.
