First, thanks for picking up the development of this wonderful tool.

I have one question. I have been using the old EMM with Olympia scraper for the past year or so (with really no issues)...i just recently decided to switch to this updated version.

I rescraped all of my movies and noticed that some of the movies are pulling non-english covers and have different names??

ex.
300 (2006) is showing as 300: The IMAX Experience
21 (2008) is showing as 21 - The Movie

Any ideas as to why some of the covers are non-english and some names are weird??

Thanks in advance...

Hi, I found the problem.

for some reasons, I had tens of processes for Ember Media Manager.exe
I restarted the server, copied the folder for EMM from my previous server, restarted EMM and everything went back to normal, including the sets! What a relief!!!!


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - nsviper - 2012-05-17

Is anyone having issues with extrathumb generation?

I have an ongoing issue where, when a movie is scraped, everything is scraped fine, apart from the extrathumbs.

An empty thumb1.jpg is generated and I can see the ffmpeg.exe process running, but it just sits and hangs, and I need to forcibly close EMM to kill it.

Had this issue ages ago and it was resolved by using an older ffmpeg.exe that used to be stored on megaupload (an old post somewhere in this thread) but thats no longer available.

Is it just me or anyone else seeing this?

Hi,

Any chance of combining TV Shows, that come from two different sources.. I'll explain.

I have two TV sources in EMM. Sadly the first source has run out of Disk Space at the moment.

So I created the second source at a different location.

Both locations include different episodes of Game of Thrones.

Thus after doing a library update there are two Game of Thrones listed in EMM.

Why have a show listed twice just because it uses more than 1 source for episodes.. It should not of course.

I'd imagine fixing this should be pretty simple, yes? After all, you simple check when creating a show in EMM that a show does NOT exist yet and if it does you simply append the new data to it.

And of course the first time the fixed build is run, it needs to check the current listings for doubles to see if data needs to be moved around.

Thanks,

Will

I never came across this problem because I would simply move the files to a different hard disk. It seems an easier solution to me.

Or create a symlink...


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - war59312 - 2012-05-19

Yes I know of the workarounds, thanks.

But it's still something that should be "fixed". It would make the normal user's experience that much better if worked correctly out of box.

Works great thanks for taking over the project.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - Boehemyth - 2012-05-21

Hey, great piece of software. Thanks for taking over the project.

Is there a way to auto-scrape TV Shows from the command line? From what I can tell, -newauto only works for movies.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - hdmkv - 2012-05-21

Is the ability to have duration for TV show episodes come up as minutes instead of seconds now possible? This was how Ember scraped in earlier versions and it'd be nice to at least have the option like with movies now to have it show minutes instead. Thanks.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - war59312 - 2012-05-22

hdmkv, please feel free to leave a comment about that @ http://ember.purplepig.net/issues/22

More people asking for it then hopefully it will happen.

RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - hatbrox - 2012-05-23

Hi,
I'm using EMM-R V1.2 rev 2422.
I use the native Ember XML Movies Scrapper with the IMDB_Olympia_v1.5.
scrapping works fine except that I'm not getting any genre.
I couldn't find any specific setting to enable "genres"
I'm not sure where else to look for.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

if you use the native Ember XML Movies Scrapper with the IMDB_Olympia_v1.5 you can set the language for the title.

What I do:
pre-requisites= have your asian movies in a specific root folder

I have 2 folders with the EMM files:
The 1st instance of EMM is configured with a french scrapper. I only add the French folder to this instance of EMM. => I only get French title.
The 2nd instance of EMM is configured with Olympia. I only add any other folder for this second instance of EMM. => I only get USA title
It's always worked fine for me.
You just have to be careful that any given folder is not added to both instances of EMM.
also make sure (although I have accidentally done several times without any problems) that you don't launch both EMM instances at the same time.
