Looking forward to the updated release.

Small request though, is it at all possible to add support for putting the resolution and MPAA rating as options for renaming the files and folders? My current naming structure is

Movie, The (Year) [Quality] [MPAA_Rating] = Movie, The (2012) [720p] [PG-13]

Nice suggestion will pass it on as its not down to me as im only working on TV Show side of things currently,

In the latest beta build new movies don't show up after being fetched. You have to fanaggle around with reload and rebuild until they show in the list box. I've tested the tv show side and couldn't be happier. Thank you very much for your time and efforts.


RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released & Alpha with Frodo TV support - vbat99 - 2013-01-25

@BesterH Yes, this is a know issue. Due to a lot of work that JeanBraye did with the Movie side, there was a quirk with refreshing of Movie list.

This may be corrected in the next beta, I can't be sure. There has been a LOT of coding this week for TV Show, and movie bugs.

I Will, or FMA965 or Huey, will update when a new Beta is available.

If I get a chance, I'll add it in when I work on the rename function for Frodo support, but it is unlikely to be in the next release (would like to get it out as soon as possible)

I noticed this when I first rebased but haven't seen it since. It was very annoying, so I might try deleting everything again and seeing if it is still there. And yes, it should be fixed before next release.

One thing I did notice on the tv side. I downloaded 4 episodes of the series Transporter. They download as Transporter the series. They scraped and renamed fine as well as the nfo files that were created. But the jpg files that were created for the screen capture were saved under the old names. I had to delete the nfo and jpg files and scraped again to get the names for all three types of files correct.

Thanks for your time.


RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released & Alpha with Frodo TV support - BesterH - 2013-01-26

One more small thing is that full/brief doesn't work in the media companion output log for the tv side. It's on full all the time.

Okay will have a look soon


RE: Media Companion V3.500 Stable Released & Alpha with Frodo TV support - BesterH - 2013-01-27

I hate to bug but one more thing again. Scraping "The Wire" renames episodes "Wire, The". If you right click on the show and rename after scraping it changes them to "The Wire". Not very consistant. Thanks.

Thanks, no idea how to fix this being new to the development of MC so hopefully some one else can Smile
