Great software! - just tried it on my 700+ movie database... even the old Xbox scans in double quick time now!
I dont seem to get any trailers thou.....

Can't say I know much about ember or using mono to start it, but you can tell it to look in mono/2.0 with a symlink. Create the directory it's looking for (if it's not already there)
Code:
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/mono/1.0then create a symlink to your file
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll /usr/lib/mono/1.0/mscorlib.dllBut back to your original problem. If it's not scraping properly, your shows aren't named properly. I (very close to) never have any issues with thetvdb scraper, largely because I ensure the filenames are correct before I begin.

I gave in and installed SickBeard.... it scrapped all my old shows, renamed them, added tbn and NFO files. plus it grabs the new shows as they are released on the interwebs.

not only do I have SB running like a dream I have access to it where ever I have internet connection and web interface, example at work, or my droids 3G cell sevice, I can add new shows or movies to be downloaded on the fly.

Thanks, I'll try this.
The shows are named perfectly, folders arranged perfectly, I'm quite OCD about these things
It doesn't fail to scrape, it just says i have 5 episodes for instance, even though I've added more. The only way to get it to scrape (when it doesn't do it automatically) is to go on information, refresh, which is not ideal as it scrapes them all and then the 'newly added' list is borked to these shows. This doesnt happen everytime, but I do like to add my own data sometimes anyway, specific thumbs etc

Does it work with nzbmatrix? From the link you gave, it doesnt mention this site, which is my preferred nzb site.

yeah it uses NzbMatrix thats where it gets MOST of my stuff from and sends it to Sabnzbd to be downloaded

- Death-Axe - 2010-08-12
ok something seriously buggered up here..... I opened ember today, all my sources are gone from the options, no movies or shows on the listings.... and it wont let me add any either. The ok button is grayed out. What the heck happened here?
- t2ffn - 2010-08-12
fasteddy Wrote:Odd. Well, I won't say it's definitely the names, but it sure sounds like the individual episodes aren't all following the same naming convention.
I name them all manually, and when I say OCD, its a case of:
Show Name SxxExx
Every single episode is identical, all words have exact same upper/lower case etc. This happened when I used XBMC on windows and now on Live. I have about 6 ext hdds hooked up, soon to be replaced with a server. I thought it may be to do with the recursive scanning, like it can't see the additional episodes added, but for TV shows there is no recursive option to change. If I add an NFO file, it is seen every time, hence a quick pre-xbmc scrape.
- SofaKng - 2010-08-12
After I scraped all of my movie data with EMM, I went into XBMC and selected "Scan For New Content".
It seemed to be taking quite a long time for each movie... is that normal?
I thought since everything was scraped and saved to files that it would only be copying some small JPEGs and should only take a second or two.
- dalben - 2010-08-12
Would it be possible to set up the source folder scarping/searching options per source folder ? At the moment they are global settings but I have my folders mixed.
Before I hear howls of "standardise your folders", I run a popcorn hour at home as well so I need to balance needs.
i.e. Adult Movies (not XXX, just non-kids movies) are in m:\movies\<movie name>\<movie file>.ext
Kids movies are in m:\kids\movies with no further subdirectories.
At the moment it's a bit of a pain getting the right settings going. If it's possible to have the settings work per source (and I guess a checkbox to just use the defined global settings) that would make life a bit easier.
Ember & iso files? - okiee82 - 2010-08-12
I am sorry but I have looked and looked for help on this if someone could just point me in the right direction....... I have a bunch of ISO files both Bluray and Reg DVD I am using ember v. 1.2 I just need to know if I can have ember or anyother program detect metadata information from iso? If anyone has a link or some advice on how to proceed.. I have all the other information such as poster, fan art, and info, rating...
I really would like to get it working with all the icons DTS, Dolby, 2:35 1080 etc..... PLEASE HELP again i am sorry if this has been covered a hundred times...
My File structure is as follows
Folder Cars/Cars.iso
Folder Batman Begins/Batman Begins.bluray.iso
PLEASE HELP
- SofaKng - 2010-08-12
Does EMM use the folder names for movie lookup?
I append the movie year to all of my folder names but while scraping it still gets confused on most movies because of duplicates. However, if it used the year it would have an exact match.
Example: Folder: "Alice In Wonderland (2010)", File: "Alice In Wonderland.mkv"
That asks me what movie I'm talking about even though the folder contains 2010.

First off... Do you have a way to play bluray isos? I have 4 or 5, but haven't figured out how to play them in XBMC...
Anyways, the 3rd party library that the EMM uses to scan metadata doesn't work very well with ISO's... if you want to try it anyways, you have to download an older version of the mediainfo.dll or something like that, but it is often wrong...

I just would really like to get the other information any other recomendations should I just loose the Iso thing completly I love having the menus and the whole disc as it was mastered aka (NO COMPRESSION)...
YES, I use total media theater and a virtual drive that when I press play in XBMC it will tell the file to mount to the drive then open up player just for bluray iso's. upon exiting it will go into XBMC.... Here is how to do it.
