Can anyone please look into this? I'm not able to use Ember at all ever since this error.

Hi, Greetings!
I would like to ask a question:
I use Ember to complete the information of my movies, and if i consider relevant add a saga in the movie. Then check it by opening the *.nfo <set> Nfo and labels are well written.
However when I update XBMC library are not the last sets I've edited. Even removing the source and added again.
I would have to uninstall the whole program? and reconfigure?.
Greetings again
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - foxxiee - 2012-09-17
Hey guys, I manage my entire movie collection with ember, but I have just realised a small problem, almost all of my nfos have the <originaltitle> tag, even if the originaltitle and title are exactly the same! This looks stupid in XBMC when browsing, because I see the main title, and then another field on top of it with the exact same title! I recently tried to go through all my movies to remove the tag, but even though it shows nothing in the tag editor, the actual nfo still has the tag!
Anyone have any idea why?
Thanks!

Sets work fine for me in XBMC using Ember to set them.
Are you adding sets to movies that have already been scanned by XBMC? If that is the case, then you will have to refresh them before that info will be available.
You should not have to uninstall/reconfigure anything.

well, that I always have.
whenever I edit something in ember, to return to do a rescan XBMC (sometimes repeated there posters and stuff). but much to upgrade or re-assign the sources to a folder, I only appear (few) sets. When I have edited ember actually many more
thank you!
google translated!.

My other post may have got lost - any chance to get a "fix" for trailer download. It is broken since latest youtube changes. Thanks for looking into this!!!
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - danz0l - 2012-09-18
I concur with steve1977. Getting to be a right pain manually grabbing youtube trailers now
Re: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - olympia - 2012-09-18
if i remember corretly you both are aware of the existance of the hd-trailers.net scaper. It works, better quality than youtube. What's wrong with it?

I have a few videofiles without fanart and would like to grab a videoframe in a easy way an use it as fanart. Is this possible with EMM?
Not possible? Or broken?

It did never work for me as good as youtube together with the other wanted scraping settings (OFDB infos, etc.).

None of that, it works. There should be a setting that extrathumb is taken as fanart if no fanarf is available, or you can choose one of the extrathumbs manually. However I sometimes have a movie where the automatic extrathumb extraction does not work, mus have something to do with the encoding settings of a movie.

hd-trailers.net use quicktime and they can be massive at 720p, You can get the same trailer, using 720p and webm, at almost half the file size from youtube. Thats why i use youtube now for almost all of my trailers.

So this should be done automatically(don't seem to do that for me)? I've read somewhere about a player window where you could select the frame you want, grab it, and set it as fanart. Maybe a older version of EMM?
Is the setting you speak of for each videofile or globally? So i know where to look for it.
RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - chrisuk11 - 2012-09-19
Apologies if this has been asked. I currently use MCM (MediaCentreMaster) but am giving ember a go.
Within ember can you get it to automatically rename the movie as soon as it gets added to the collection ? The naming format I would like to be Movie Name - Year - Quality
Example - Arthur (2011) [720p]
This brings me on to my 2nd question. Can Ember check the file for the quality?
Also if there is a guide anywhere that may be useful any links would be great!
Thanks in advance

Works well with the latest movies, but far not as exhausted compared to the availability of youtube trailer. Would be great if this can get "fixed" in the next release. Thanks for considering!
