Just rename all you .tbn files to .jpg & jobs done.

Not so easy, as moviename.tbn has become moviename-poster.jpg or moviename-banner.jpg, as well as some other changes to DVD VIDEO_TS folder format.
RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released - Dragen - 2013-01-10
Manually renaming about 10 000 files is not something I'm going to do.
When you're fixing this, can you make MC read poster.png/jpg if it's in the folder? XBMC no longer uses .tbn, the formats are now .png and .jpg. I have redownloaded all art in png or jpg, and MC doesn't find posters.
Movie/TV show posters, season posters, etc etc.
RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released - vbat99 - 2013-01-10
I spotted a script by a user in a diff thread that would run through your files, renaming them correctly.
As for MC, as yet it still needs major code changes to incorporate the new artwork format, and to make it frodo compatible.
As for a auto- rename function, I'd have to leave that option to Huey. I'll try and find the script and post it here. Give me a few...
OK, that was quicker than I thought.
See this post
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=145814&pid=1274703#pid1274703
OK, I see this is for VIDEO_TS folders. May not help if you have moviename.tbn. Specially as the script won't have any idea if the tbn is poster or banner.
RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released - Dragen - 2013-01-10
I used Flexible Renamer to fix it. And it would seem that .jpg is the preferable format for anything not having transparency.
RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released - vbat99 - 2013-01-10
May have a look at that program for other stuff, but for me, I need the original files to say in place, so the script may do for me. I'll looking at editing it for moviename.tbn function as well.
Glad you got it sorted.

When I tried to use "tv show selector"
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index
at Media_Companion.Form1.util_LanguageCheck()
at Media_Companion.Form1.ListBox3_SelectedIndexChanged(Object sender, EventArgs e)

after which it just shows a please wait window.
And when I try to scrape, I'm being told there was an error contacting thetvdb.com.

You want to just rename the extensions of a bunch of stuff, and you're running Windows? Here's the easy way:
Drop into DOS and go to the root folder you want to start at. Then run
forfiles /m *.XXX /s /c "cmd /c ren @file @fname.YYY"
Replace XXX with the files to search for and YYY with the new extension.

Yay
Didn't know about the forfiles command! Might just come in handy for a couple of scripts I'm working on. Thanks!

using 3.5.2.1 here and noticed that if I flag the option:
tv preferences/fix NFO
the flag gets removed each launch

It also specifically states that this option is non-persistant; is this confusing and/or mis-leading? If it is, I'll change it - suggestions welcome.

That is correct. The "Fix nfo" is only required once, as it scans your nfo's and fixes a glitch with one entry. So it is not required all the time.
Edit: Damn.....too slow...LOL
