Yes. I use toolnix to set the headers originally. I don't believe that the headers are the problem since they are set correctly. The problem is that language flags are only being displayed for about half my videos. I just don't know if this is a scraping problem and the headers are not being read or if it's a display problem.

If you are just wanting to always have a language flag show on the movie info page for every movie, this is what I do..

1. I always make sure (using Ember media manager) that any non-English movies are tagged with their proper language (and of course the english subtitles)

2. most of my movies are in English, so what I do is simply copy the en.png file to the media folder (cause I'm lazy)

3. Open up DialogVideoInfo.xml and find:

Code:

<visible>!IsEmpty(Window(movieinformation).Property(AudioLanguage.1)) + !Stringcompare(Window(movieinformation).Property(AudioLanguage.1),und)</visible>

and delete or comment it out.

4. Then open up the Includes_MediaFlags.xml file, right at the top is the language flags code, find:

Code:

<visible>!IsEmpty(Window(movieinformation).Property(AudioLanguage.1))</visible>

And delete or comment it out.

Then right above that line you just removed change:

Code:

<texture>$VAR[ColorFlagsLanguage]$INFO[Window(movieinformation).Property(AudioLanguage.1),,.png]</texture>

to:

Code:

<texture fallback="en.png">$VAR[ColorFlagsLanguage]$INFO[Window(movieinformation).Property(AudioLanguage.1),,.png]</texture>

and now every movie that does not have a language defined defaults to English and you will always see a language flag on the video info page. You can take similar steps with views that you want this for as well.

and again... when people start again to code their own stuff and mixing it with main madnox code they get problems one day - and then they post here again " damn, this isnt working anymore " and we spend again a lot of time with searching for a problem we cant find, because they messed up the code again...
i dont mean guys like you shadow, because you know what you do, but here are a lot of ppl who see your code and think " hey, cool, i will try it " - then its working for a while and one day ... whoosh

i am getting realy tired

The editing looks simple, that shouldn't be a problem. When you say to copy en.png to the media folder, do you mean I need to place the png file into each folder containing a video? Or copy the png file into the addon media folder?

Also, not sure what files to edit for the various views.

after you "installed" the language addon, did you restart your whole player ? and maybe refresh your video db ?
and maybe start a movie without a flag and check if you have the flag after play it a cpl of seconds
and finaly check if you have activate:
SETTINGS >>> VIDEO >>> FILE LISTS >>> EXTRACT THUMBNAILS AND VIDEO INFORMATION

if those things wont work, send me a pm with one of your movie infos without a flag and one with a flag please
