Possible to get an update with imdb numbers instead of shining stars? Big Grin


- ClayM - 2010-09-05

I'd like to see numbers instead of stars as well.

Not a make a break for me though Smile

Does this work with the Dharma branch? I was using the latest release of Alaska (last update like a year ago) from Git and it doesn't work with Dharma.

Also, nightlies are on hold so there's little I could do anyway.

Never mind, I have updated my build, did a full rebuild, and the issue seems to be gone...


not gone... but also in Confluence - Voyager - 2010-09-06

... so I've raised a bug report in Trac. No worries, this is not related to Alaska.

Big update, this has taken some time to perfect but you can now have whatever you like as custom sub menu buttons.

Hitcher,

I don't know if anyone else uses them, but I add them in after each update. There are a few things that are still not available on Bluray, so I must rely on the DVHS/DTheater copies - Alien, Moulin Rouge etc. Would you consider adding them permanently at all?

I have my own flags if this would not be too much of a troubles. Thank you either way. Big Grin

Hi Hitcher, got a couple of problems when running revisited with Swedish translation

When viewing movie information the text is to big for the screen (see screenshot). One way of solving this would be if thumbs/fanart and update would be optional. I use EMM so I don't use them anyway so this would be the slickest solution.

The other problem seems to be a bug when sorting movies by playing time (swedishConfusedpeltid)

Sure, I'll make them show up if the filename contains 'dvhs' and 'dtheater'.

I forgot to make them scroll if they were to long and I've also removed the CAST button (now you simply press UP to access the Cast list) which gives them more space.

What did you mean by "Auto Thumb support"?


- Hitcher - 2010-09-07

I've submitted a patch to get the favourites script updated so it also pulls the thumb image (if available) so it can be added along with the path and name to your custom buttons - saves the user searching for it.

I had a lot of help from ppic to get it working correctly but it's been tested with Revisited and does the job perfectly.
