Fix in place for the next release. When I looked at the code, I'd really stuffed it up.
Checked, and double tested. Working OK.

Um, what link are you trying.?
Try this one. https://mediacompanion.codeplex.com/releases/view/620273, is working for me.
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - bobrap - 2016-03-13
I think I might be missing something. If I mark seasons/episodes as watched, and I use local info only in Kodi, shouldn't Kodi read the nfo and show those shows/episodes as watched? Seems to not be working for me unless there is a setting in Kodi I'm missing.

You'd think this would happen, but once Kodi has scraped the episodes, it doesn't re-read the nfo.
Your only option is in Kodi, is to go Info on the series, and select Refresh and include episodes.
Also, you will need to ensure you have an advancedsettings.xml file in place with option to read playcount.
See this on MC Wiki. Watched Status Import

Thanks! Forgot to copy my advancedsettings.xml over to a new install. Works ok now. Makes you wonder why some tings are not added by default. Thanks again.

I just remembered what might've cause the problem, and I was right!
Avast!
I disabled it for 10 minutes and I was good to go. It's being detected as malware.

Yes, just noticed the x64 build of MC is being flagged as suspicious again! Damn it, I sometimes hate Antivirus program when they get over zealous on what is and what might be a virus! That's Heuristic scanners for you.
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - vbat99 - 2016-03-14
Testing this and it seems to be the self-extracting x64 download that triggers Avast. If I copy the already extracted folder and files, Avast doesn't batter an eye.
Oh well, sent the file off to them for assessment....again......

I guess you'll have to keep doing this for all their updates?

Until either Avast passes the self extracting code of 7-zip, or I find another method.
It's just that 7-zip is almost 1MB smaller file to DL than any other compression tool.
I'll keep looking for other ways...
RE: Media Companion 3 beta's - Now with Music Video support - trogggy - 2016-03-17
Just a quick question...
When I look at my log as I'm scraping it's mostly made up of lines like:
Quote:CVideoInfoTag::GetDurationFromMinuteString <runtime> should be in minutes. Interpreting '41 min' as 41 minutes- presumably 1 line per .nfo file.
I often notice it, but never remember to ask the question.
Any reason runtime is stored as min rather than minutes?
I'd post more in this thread but Media Companion just seems to work for me - and get better and better! - this is curiosity rather than grumbling.

MC uses 'min' as it's shorter, fits into the textbox, and Kodi translates it if required.
MC does have the option to exclude 'min' from the runtime tag, would be interesting to see what Kodi thinks about that.
