Dan, will there be a way with the new version to "fix" the various artwork that is currently not compatible with the Frodo naming conventions or will we have to clean all of this up manually?
I made the jump to Frodo and observed that quite a lot of TV season artwork as well as clearart, etc, is completely borked... I'm hoping I can avoid a lengthy cleanup/scrape project to fix it all.
Bump.
Will the new version migrate the old artwork and ditch the .tbn files or will we have to re-scrape it all?
Thanks

No solution for auto renaming. But I have use bulk rename utility (standalone) to rename all my files in 3-4 steps (without video_ts files). When you need help please make a screenshot of your movie and TV show folders. I can check if possible to proper rename all files.
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - voip-ninja - 2013-02-19
OK thanks Dan. I really only need to rename about 12 TV series worth of artwork, so perhaps I will just wait until the next version 1.3.10 is available and then re-scrape those series.

Did you look at bulk renamere inside Ember?

I you have only 12 tv shows rescraping is the best and easiest way.

Not atm, but I will check the renamer bug before next release
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - deh2k7 - 2013-02-19
You can always try the stand-alone bulk renamer utility. It works great for this type of thing and is relatively simple to use.

I think tvdb and impawards are more than enough...
(there are times though that movieposter has some posters that are not on tvdb or impawards, but on really rare occassions )
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - Randall Lind - 2013-02-19
I don't really use this feature much but today after spending the last 4 day moviing TV files to new drives I check show missing episodes for TV and doesn't seem to show any missing.
I am missing season 2 #8 of American Horror Story some from other shows but there noting listed in Ember to tell me. Can someone check that feature?
Update: says there a error with AdvancedSettings.xml when I enable says denied
bump

I have only activated TMDB Scraper for movies. Impawards is good too, but in my experience TMDB is more than enough so I deactivate all others to save some scraping time. MPDB delivers only small sizes and has no advantages. So I vote for: Terminate it!

Will kill it.
they are low quality as it scrapes the sample posters from the web page, not the one you have to "purchase".
Additional question: what do you think of rottentomatoes?
It does provide an API too...
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - ironcross - 2013-02-19
Dan,
Will 1.3.10 have support for Video_TS folders for TV shows?
Thanks

This is a good question
How is the correct structure for video_ts in TV shows?

If you're looking for another image-scraper I would recommend fanart.tv - not for fanart/poster but for other images (which can't be found on tvdb and tmdb) like cleaart, landscape. I think right now Ember doesn't offer any support for those files at all, see here:
http://ember.purplepig.net/issues/93
Right now I manually search my cleararts and landscape thumbs from fanart.tv and download them to my tv show folders.
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - m.savazzi - 2013-02-19
I'm already working on Fanart.tv to try to get the Json api.
It's not clear to me how cleararts and landscape thumbs should be used in Frodo ...
