chunkhead Wrote:Hey guys, finding MIP very useful, however having a bit of an issue with the movies.
I have ensured that all my movies (using the file structure, not folder structure) are labeled correctly eg. 28 Days Later (2002).avi
However, when I ask MIP to PreCache, is stops on EVERY film to ask me which film to choose from IMDB. Also, whether I actually choose the correct match from IMDB or press cancel, it pulls the information correctly anyway!
The problem I have is that my Movie Collection is quite large and I just don't have the time to be clicking for every film. Why can't it just pull the info correctly like the TV section? I'm using 2.0.1.2898, i've also tried a few previous builds too.
What is it i'm missing here, nobody else seems to have this issue!?
Now, I may be wrong here (especially without being able to see more of your collection), but my
guess is that it is choking on the year in the filename?
AFAIK, the filter only ignores the year when it's in the foldername...not the filename.
I don't have a file-level setup to test this against...but that would be my guess. I know file-level stuff was a newer feature...odds are the filters didn't make it to it yet.
I would suggest creating a few folders manually using the same filename as the movie you're trying to scan, adding them to the folder-level stuff, and trying it again. Obviously, you'd want to remove the file-level stuff as well.
If it works, you can use a program called FileMonkey to automagically create subfolders for everything, and possibly even move it all there.

I know firsthand that filemonkey will work for this...just been a while. Give it a go, and if it's successful, I'd be happy to help you get everything named right.
