1) Possible issue with tv votes at episode level. For some reason Lie to me season 1 is not showing the correct vote count and falls back to series votes. Season 2 and 3 are good
1,4 display correct vote count
2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13 incorrect vote count
2) TV Shows media flags are displayed at episode level only, and the media flags are not displayed with the same quality as in movies.
Will look into the TV Votes for Lie to Me, but may have to wait for a day.
As for Media flags over episode thumbnail, this is due to the resolution of the thumbnail being only 400x225, and the image is being stretched to fix the picturebox.
Movie Fanart is usually 1920x1080, and shrunk to fit.
I'll have a look at this section also, see if something can be done to improve it, but I suspect it all has to do the the image we have to work with.

What if you move the media flags to display at season level? the image there is 1920
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - Edworld - 2016-08-04
Just discovered that on the main browser you can click on clear art, logo, banner, etc and display that image.

Have to select a episode to display the media flags, which displays the thumbnail for the episode.
This would only work if every episode is exactly the same type of media file.
3 things here.
1. We do not hold any season details. A Season folder is only present if an episode for that season is present. No Season data is stored in MC.
2. Would need to scan every episode to determine the media stream details exactly match. One difference in audio language, or bitrate, would negate the display of media info over the season artwork.
3. I believe it would be very costly in cpu cycles to have to load every episode in a season, compare the stream details, and then display over the season artwork.
For a minimal presentation improvement, quite a lot of work.

Hello Rob,
Thanks for the quick reply. I am getting another error while taking screenshots from the movie file if fanart not present in any of the scrappers.
" The system cannot find the file specified
Continue?
Yes No"
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - vbat99 - 2016-08-04
@john8546
Not getting that error. Probably how I've set up Media Companion.
Can you upload your config.xml file from Media Companion folder -> Settings folder, and PM me a link please?
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - vbat99 - 2016-08-04
Oops, I see its with collection posters. Duh!
Will look into that now.
On the second issue, give me a name of a Movie that does not have Fanart available.

Rob,
Here is the movie name for example
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2856272/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
You're Gonna Be a Legend, Man 2013

First issue with Movie Set artworking is fixed, but will need a new release to get this working. Will possibly do a new release in 12 hours ish.
As for getting screenshot for that movie, sorry, no issue. clicking the button "Screenshot at", saved a screenshot as the fanart worked for me.

Hello Rob,
I figured out the issue with screenshot. I downloaded a previous version say Media Companion 3.641b and found ffmpeg.exe in the Assets folder where as the exe file was missing in the new version Assets folder.
It solved the screenshot issue.
Thanks rob..I will be waiting for the next release.
John.
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - vbat99 - 2016-08-04
That's a big one. Testing in debug, ffmpeg was copied to the asset folder.
Building a release, it wasn't.
That'll be fixed in the next release tomorrow morning.

I see that episodes with wrong vote count is getting the Series vote count instead.
Will have a look and get it fixed before new release tomorrow.

Episodes that do not get the correct votes are because they do not have an IMDb Id allocated to the episode. I will fix this up on TheTvDb site, but you will need to rescrape these episodes.
Also, best to go Tools -> Empty Caches & Series Folders, so the new data is pulled by Media Companion.
I'd give it a couple of hours.
