Hutch Wrote:Just select the folder containg all the movies and scrape the data. If you want a permanent transition to EMM, then I'd recommend using EMM to delete all .nfo/.tbn/.jpg from all movie folders, and then scraping. Also EMM can rename all movies to a uniform format which is handy.

kri kri Wrote:I want to do a transition, but all of the movies in PVDB are on DVD/Blu ray.

I could not figure out how to do a large import using the offline manager tool.

Hutch Wrote:I'm a bit confused. Are all your movies currently ripped and on your computer?

If so, the best structure is to have them all in separate folders e.g.

Movies\Transformers\Transformers.avi
Movies\Braveheart\Braveheart.avi
etc....

Then in EMM just select the "Movies" folder and start tweaking.

2. Why do you need to run it in Compatibility Mode? Ember Media Manager works just fine with my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate.

michellembrodeu Wrote:ok, i have one movie to test it with. 48hrs.
i click on "re-scrap imdb" and wait.

the a box comes up saying.

"
Retrieving data from TheMovie.com..

IMPawards.com is not enabled

MoviePostersDB.com is not enabled

"

then it says
"no posters found for this movie."


then " No fan art found for this movie"

then it goes to the screen to manually input everything.



Also clicking on Download Addons does not work.


for the compatibility mode tried right clicking choosing properties and compatibility and choose vista no option for XP. also installed windows virtual XP mode and no luck there also.

I am using Windows Pro version not ultima could that be the problem. does any got ember working in pro or home

P.S. my roommate has ultimate edition and it did not work.

NasaGeek Wrote:It's not going to happen for a while. The devs are still trying to work out any kinks in the Movie aspect and make it as feature-filled as possible before moving on to other categories of media. However, rest-assured that Olympia (the project manager) is well-aware for the demand for TV Show support, and I am sure he will inform us of any important updates.

Almost 1TB of movies gone in an instant. I can get them back but its going to be a slow process, I love the app but I wont be using that functionality again...!
