tried this program few days ago. after 3 hours of it scanning it my media download over 10,000 files making some NFO files then it just crashed and process was aborted had to start over again.
simply uninstalled the program, not worth the trouble

fairly useless post, as you don't even mention any useful information at all not even what version you are using.
There were some problems causing crashes lately, you really need to run the test builds 2.1.1xxxxxx that fixed up these issues.

if i had to guess, you where using it for tv shows during the same timeframe that the tvdb site was on the pipe. Sometimes when it gets really bogged down it returns corrupted xml data, in turn mip doesn't like it.. but it should give ya the option to continue when those error's occur.
yes, tv shows with the default settings download a freakin ton of information, and it's annoying during initial load for a large collection. That's why UMM has those functions in completely different modules.
Bummer ya didn't like it, but that's how it goes sometimes, i have my own things I hate and love about it.
The key to any of these is feedback and folks being human. Everyone that makes free stuff gets to the point of wanting to drop the whole idea, so give um some credit, it's free and open sourced so everyone can help fix things and improve it.
I was hoping to find a screenshot of MIP's very first generation (icon grabber), but it's buried somewhere in the old thread. Now that was a piece of work

sorry, fixed issue with test build

but it does.even on a brand new, fresh install.
~bump~
(since MIP would be really cool if some options would do like they are supposed to
)

I updated and ran tvupdate and I still get files with 0 KB .tbn files. Anyone else seeing this issue?
I checked to make sure the images are on thetvdb.com, specifically Californication Season 3 folder. There are a few more but I am at work.
Thanks,
Reg

Here's the issue with the "codec" field
MIP's output was a direct co-op between me and CaptBry as media flagging was being implemented in xbmc. There's even specific workarounds in place to match data types. However there's alot more to a file then meets the eye.
From the media information (mediainfo.dll)
Format: MPEG-4 Visual
Codec ID: DIV3
Codec ID/Hint: Divx 3 Low
From ffmpeg -i on the same file
msmpeg4, yuv420p, 640x352, 23.98 tbr, 23.98 tbn, 23.98 tbc
when in another container (avi in mkv) ffmpeg reports
msrle, pal8, 300x250, PAR 1:1 DAR 6:5, 15 tbr, 1k tbn, 1
what skinners are prob looking for is Divx, when there's alot more to the information in the video stream
So in this case is not very straightforward as to what folks want to use, which is why i add all info to the .nfo file the mediainfo.dll scan
If it's disabled, it should not be writing to the db, this might be an issue with the last scanned info in the file
Aspect is already modified in the xml generator and I'm looking into the .nfo scanner for xbmc.
This directly relates to both MIP and UMM, so it'll be sorted out.
If you are still getting missing images for tv shows, please provide the following
show name
show id (tvdbid)
episode number & season number for the specific episode that is not working
(if more then 1, please list)
if using dvd order, please list

build 2948
fixed aspect tag in media information
added checks for writing media information, if scan media information is not enabled in the settings, it will not write that information to the .nfo file
(there are two settings, one for movies, one for tv episodes)

cheers, hopefully MIP will now just stop adding streamdetails to nfos
i see your point in adding "full qualified" meta data to nfos, it's just that xbmc itself does write(and read) not-so-accurate tags into it's db. all would be fine if xbmc would read the <codecID> tag into db, but obviously this time this tag is simply ignored by xbmc.
this renders the whole "pre-filled" nfo experience useless for flagging. well, ok, not the whole, since audio is displayed correctly.
edit: thanks fekker.. no streamdetails in nfo, so it's up to xbmc now to display what it gets. cheers!

Still getting missed thumbs, last one Was Greek Season S03E05 (Sorted By Air Date)
Any update would be good, thx for all your hard work
- lestat1977uk - 2009-09-29
Also getting an unhandled exception error in the main app whenever i try to reload an episode that has no information, i press reload or refresh nothing happens but when i click back on that app i get the error below?

greek season 3 episode 5 has no image for the episode on tvdb
http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesid=80301&seasonid=98971&id=1062321&lid=7
the out of memory exception is one of those they could have named better.
what it means is that there is an image it's trying to load that is 0k
in winders, open the folder where your media is stored
press f3 (search)
search for files, filter by size.. after results are returned click on size column
find those 0k files and remove them and the error will stop
- lestat1977uk - 2009-09-29
