JAH_ Wrote:hi.

Movies\Bad Boys (1995)\Bad Boys.dvd.avi will show up in bulkrenamer with correct title and path, but in the filename field it says "Bad Boys vi". NewFileName displays the correct new filename.

Where does the "vi" come from?

cault Wrote:Hello,
I have a problem when scrapping fanart and extrathumbs. I have checked the save fanart as extrathumbs in the settings but it does not save the extrathumbs. When I am doing it manually, the same thing happen. So my latest movies have extrathumbs extracted from the file.
If I checked the fanart manually, then EMM downloads them correctly as extrathumbs.

I am using version 1102.
DOes anyone have the same issue or is it only me?

Thanks and keep up the good work, this soft rocks.

elecga Wrote:I just started playing around with the trailer scraper and had some questions. I ran the auto scrape a couple days ago and it found trailers for most of the movies but for the ones with youtube urls they dont stream in xbmc.

This is the url I got for Aeon Flux which doesn't stream
http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=18&video_id=Ivqm96rXf7w&t=vjVQa1PpcFMWT7Jk7Nliifrtexc1EsaOA8Q9DpknyUQ%3D

When I go into edit and manually search for trailers I get a different youtube link which works
http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=18&video_id=Ivqm96rXf7w&t=vjVQa1PpcFNi9ODKbVDe5_PEKk6EnZixwHkNv0AvI24%3D

I'm confused, is youtube changing the id or is something going wrong when emm autoscrapes and assigns the url? Manually scraping and clicking "set to nfo" assigns the correct url.

SpazMonkey Wrote:I was digging around the OP and page 261 and saw some discussion about Taglines and Ember Media Manager. I am currently using version R1102. I can not yet figure out how to get it to properly pull a tagline. Currently for all of my movies it is pulling <div class="info-content"> instead of an actual tagline. I dug around the known bugs page for EMM and could not find it as a listed bug. I have however got EMM to work wonders for every other part of my library. Thanks for the help.

Therms Wrote:Is it possible for EMM to use the info in already present .nfo files? I have a great number of movies I'd like to better scrape. All of them have .nfo files with the imdb id in them, but it seems like if I scrape them with the "Ask" option it asks on movies that it should easily be able to pick between if it looked at the imdb and year information.

For example:

I have a folder called Dawn of the Dead (2004). In that folder I have"Dawn of the Dead.hddvd.mkv" and "Dawn of the Dead.hddvd.nfo".

"Dawn of the Dead.hddvd.nfo" contains:

Code:

<movie>
    <title>Dawn of the Dea</title>
    <year>2004</year>
    <id>tt0363547</id>
</movie>

EMM still pops up the dialog asking me to choose between Dawn of the Dead (2004) and Dawn of the Dead (1978).

1. Shouldn't EMM get the year from the folder name?
2. Shouldn't EMM get the year and imdb id from the .nfo?
3. What am I doing wrong?

steve1977 Wrote:Any thoghts on above? I believe that it has something to do with timeout time and as of that, it only downloads a part of the movie? Might be the same issue for trailers, which are cut after a while? Cannot confirm for trailers, but definitely still a big issue for me for movieart. Any thoughts?

Looks like something new on IMDb.

Also I would like an option to not link actor's photo when there is no available.

krl69 Wrote:Just a couple of days ago I started to use this excellent program for scraping all my movies.

The really nice feature I wanted to use was the "Sets Manager" which gives me a possibility to sort movies under a "folder" structure. Children movies in one, music videos in another folder etc.

But this "manager" could use a little upgrading in both speed and functionality. For example if I have 200 movies that I want to sort in "sets", the right column named "Movies" shouldn’t be static. When I “move” a movie in to a set, it should also be removed from this column. Else it’s difficult to keep track of which movies I have sorted in to a set.

One way to solve this is to integrate the "sets" functionality under "Files and sources" settings. For example a "source" could have a setting that automatically connect a set to the source so every time a new movie was dropped in to the source, it get sorted under a specific set.

And I'm sorry if this matter is already discussed in an earlier thread or messages. But with almost 300 messages in this thread, I found it easier and speedier to just write a big new message.

steve1977 Wrote:Had the same problem under an old version, but fixed for me under R1102. Maybe try a full new install and see whether this fixed it?!

One related request: I have quite a few movies scraped with unproper taglines. Would it be possible for the next release to include "update tagline" to fix this. Only for one release to get this worked out again. I am sure not too many suffer from the "old" tagline issue.

rvank Wrote:Hi all,

I have a question about movies on 2 dvd's.
I have some movies in 2 parts (2 VIDEO_TS folders) how can i get Ember to see these as 1 movie instead of 2.

So the file structure is:
..\MovieName\DVD 1\VIDEO_TS\
..\MovieName\DVD 2\VIDEO_TS\

or

..\MovieName\CD1\
..\MovieName\CD2\

Both give me the same result, 2 entries in ember.

Greets,
Rob

unmesh Wrote:I'm embarrassed to ask this but I have not been able to figure it out on my own.

Since I have more than one XBMC client and all my movies are on a NAS, I thought I'd create .nfo and .jpg files on the NAS folders using EMM to save every client from having to download them over the Internet. The specific problem I'm having is with each client's "Set Content" field for the Source that points to the shared movie folder hierarchy.

Since I could not find a NFO-Scraper setting under Movies, I used the one under Music Videos and while it did recursively traverse the folder hierarchy, it did not produce a "Movie Information" choice in the context pulldown.

I must be missing something real obvious and any help getting this set up correctly will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
