Fails to load my music .. looks like it quits scanning the folders when it hits 10,000 songs.

Show the correct total in the upper left corner but no artists listed below.

Am I running the proper latest version?

Thanks

2809 is the latest version, I didn't modify the scan code since 2800.. It could be hung up on one of the songs, it should time out if it fails to parse the media info for it.

did any version work to scan the music?

Sure .. last version I used (2806) loaded my tunes fine .. no new songs since yesterday.

When you load your tv shows, choose the show name, and then the season, and then the episode, the data will appear in the right screen.

Quote:thanks.

what data does it normally cache?
Information about 50,000 or so movies, so it doesn't have to go scrape for it.

Weird... let me go look at the diff's and see if i can isolate it.
If you revert to 2806, does it complete the scan? -- here's 2806's download link

- changed the way music files are cached and loaded
This will clear out all old cached music info the first time it runs, so it'll take a few minutes.. you can remove the files by hand if you want to.. C:\Program Files\mediainfoplus\temp\musicdata\

In addition, that means it will need to regenerate the cache the first time it runs.

This should make it faster to load larger items, and reduces the number of files being generated for cache to just 1 xml file with multple items in it.

fixed - fixed tvshow command line lockups, and added option to add new shows if you have the tvshow.nfo or a file tvdbid.txt for the show.

updated - The command line tvshow update so it will allow you to add new shows, you do need to put the tvdb showid in a text file, tvdbid.txt, in the tv show folder to use this.

I'm sorry. Did you say Command line? ??

yup.. it allows for the tv shows to be updated via a command line without opening the gui.

That's the thing, I can't get Seasons to appear.

I'll bet this is where mip's variant from xbmc is causing a prob.

Episodes have to be in a subfolder off the main tv show folder.

ie.
TVShows\Bones\Season 1
---> episodes go into Season 1 folder

The name of the folder is not important, unless you want to use media images. (media images are the covers, disc images, inlays, inserts, etc) .. and you can put everything into one folder.

The recommended name is Season X or Season_X .. where X is the season number in single digit (0-9) format or two digit format (10-99). and in that folder is that seasons shows.

I did this so i can add season fanart to those folders later, and so I can handle media images now.

So, in the future there will be support for Season fanart, as opposed to just per TV show currently?

Ok, Last night it seemed to work as long as I had a show already established.
So now your saying If I do this it will work?

Guyver Bioboosted Armor/
tvbid.txt, which would have the content of 79104

Then as I get files it will build? What if I don't have a Season 1 folder as of yet? I'm assuming it will just skip it until I do.

I have mip setup for it, it doesn't output it yet, but that's easy to do. The prob is that there's no option (that i know of) in xbmc for season fanart yet. I remember seeing some notes in xbmc's source about season fanart, but can't find those now.

Dilligaf Wrote:Are there plans for artist.nfo and album.nfo files to be made by MIP? how about the ability to search the internet for missing artist and album images? Right now the artist fanart is spotty at best with many incorrect images, can the fanart that is downloaded have the artist name displayed in MIP to make sure it's the right artist? Also the ability to have the artist image also resized and stored as a folder.jpg would be nice. I know I'm asking a lot and if it's not possible then so be it. Many thanks for all your hard work.

Mike

I would love to figure out artist.nfo and album.nfo in the format that the library exports to..

I tried a few different builds, but nothing seems to even attempt to load an xml formated .nfo for music.

The export worked for a single file, but would crash when I tried seperate files with thumbs and fanart.

I know there's the option for a url in a .nfo file, but I would really like to have the data there and not the url.

if anyone can get one working, or details of how it works, i'll add it in for sure.

for example, based off a single file export of the music db, I made the following for artist as a test:

(this didn't work)

        <biography>A superior, slightly underrated improviser, Jack Wilkins has proven on his infrequent recordings as a leader that he ranks near the top. Wilkins, who studied with John Mehegan early on, learned vibes, piano, and classical guitar, but has stuck to jazz guitar throughout his career. He gained a strong reputation during his long association with Buddy Rich. Since then, he has recorded as a sideman with Jack DeJohnette, Eddie Gomez, Phil Woods, Harvie Swartz, and the Brecker Brothers, among others. But it is his own recordings for Mainstream, Music Masters, CTI, and especially his pair of essential Chiaroscuro albums in 1977 (the single CD Merge reissued all of the music except one song) that allow one to hear what a talented player Jack Wilkins has always been.</biography>
