SHen350 Wrote:Okay, I have been trying to scan through the posts and see if this has been explained, but I didn't see it. I was wondering about the XBMC option. What exactly does it do? Can I add all my XBMC extenders, or does it even need to be done?

If someone can point me to either a post or possibly a wiki on this I would be greatful.

You should add all your xbmc so all updates with one click (if they are powered on of course)

ph0rce Wrote:Sorry if this question has been asked before but I'm having a little trouble understanding exactly what the 'XBMC Communication' option is supposed to do.

I have a blank install of XBMC installed ( latest SVN version/ Aeon skin ) & I have a library of around seventy films ( stored on a NAS ) which I have catalogued using Ember ( latest version ).

I assumed that when I pressed the XBMC button, it would upload my library to XBMC & that next time I restarted it, all my movies would appear with the same information?

If this is not the case, could someone help me out?

Unbehagen Wrote:The HTML export feature of EMM inspired me. I'm not a Javascript-Guru, but looked into the existing templates and I think the following mockup should be possible:


If it is really possible, would someone help me to implement this or just do it on her/his own? It would really be a good thing to have the XBMC library available as a Website with all its sort functions - as they should all be doable in JavaScript. Not all of my flatmates are able to use XBMC, so a nice HTML Index would be really cool. Most DivX, FLV and QuickTime movies can even be directly embedded as a stream. So there wouldn't even be a need to leave the browser.
As I said, I'm no Javascript expert, but with the HTML thing implemented, would it be much more than a bit of list filtering, sorting and string matching?
I see this as a feature request, that's why I posted it here. If you think this is too far away from the generating program, I can open a new thread if other people are interested.

• After autoscraping my new media the extrathumb option on the left panel doesn't get checked. But the extrathumbs are properly loaded, after double-clicking the movie and clicking okay it's checked.
  
  
  
• Seems that EMM get's stuck when internet connection is lost during scraping. I clicked cancel at auto scaping and it says 'canceling all processes' but nothing happens for 10 minutes, I need to crash the exe via process manager.
  Just tested it with scraping for posters and freezes, too. I can click on cancel but nothing happens.
  
  
  
• When I double click on a movie (movie details) I can see the fanarts resolution at the fanart tab. After setting a new fanart out of the extrathumbs with another resolution, the old/wrong resolution is shown at fanart tab until i close and re-open the window. It isn't refreshed though.
  Maybe you could add the resolution to extrathumbs, too? So you don't need to "test" when searching for a 1920px one.

• How can I get the "Initiate XBMC update" function to work when having XBMC installed at my local pc? I don't know what I shall enter as IP, port, username and password in settings.
  
  
  
• Is there a way to set media flags like "blueray" or "HDTV" manually? I have some already scaped movies and don't want to add ".blueray" to each movie & image filename.

• I'll get the "has subtitles" checked on the left panel when I have a *.srt file in the movie folder. But EMM won't show if the subtitles are muxxed in the mkv. Or am I missing something?
  
  
  
• Could you add an option to scape the media of "selected movies". If I want to auto rescrape a movie I first have to mark it, would be a little easier though. But that's nothing important, of cource.

You can only hope that we do anything on issues reported here. If you want to make sure, file them on the official way.

Thank you!
