I've had no problem scraping in Frodo

Each movie in its own folder (named exactly as below)

movie.nfo
fanart.jpg
movie.tbn
movie-trailer.ext

TV Show

tvshow.nfo

folder.jpg
seasonXX.tbn

Episodes

filename.nfo
filename.tbn


You won't for now, but you will eventually. I mean we know the correct planned naming conventions for future releases, why not get ahead of it instead of scrambling to fix it later?

I don't disagree, I only said I don't have a problem scraping in frodo and as far as I know backward compatibility isn't going in frodo.

EMM supports most of those new image types but it doesn't support all those needed for TV, in any case I could make all the needed changes to all images in one go using Flexible Renamer.

For me I would only have to make the following changes to be compatible with the new image types

Each movie in its own folder (named exactly as below)

movie.nfo
fanart.jpg
movie.tbn (poster.jpg) Supported in EMM
movie-trailer.ext

TV Show

tvshow.nfo
fanart.jpg
folder.jpg (poster.jpg) Supported in EMM
seasonXX.tbn (seasonXX-poster.jpg) Not supported in Ember

Episodes

filename.nfo
filename.tbn (filename-thumb.jpg) Not supported in Ember

Can someone please help me... EMM keeps scraping my movies in what looks to me another language? This is what I get for Tomorrow Never Dies "Cinemania Tomorrow Never Dies (2008)" and for Thunderball (1965) "Upright Citizens Brigade Thunderball (2000)"...

I dont understand why Sad


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - kricker - 2013-01-03

What scraper are you trying to use?


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - grupy - 2013-01-03

I recall there used to be a link for additional studio images...does anyone happen to have a link for it? Just looking to add more studio images outside of the ones that are packaged by default with EMM.

I brought this up the other day, something has changed again so its not selecting the exact match when you use "Automatic", you need to use "Ask" and then it wont happen it will just use the correct one.

Your probably need to delete those incorrect nfo's first as mine wouldn't overwrite with new ones.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - PogMoThoin - 2013-01-03

Here is a question, I'm not sure if it's possible. I've been using Ember for a while. I have a large collection 800+ movies but I don't have the movies in individual folders, but all in a few big folders. Is there an easy way to get Ember to put each movie in it's own folder so I can add other stuff, movie logo art etc


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - bonelifer - 2013-01-03

Not sure about doing that in Ember, but you could use theRenamer: http://therenamer.com/ just set it up to use the naming format and it will move your movies to the individual folders inside your MOVIE folder.

There's an option in settings to do this when you scrape or you can do it from tools.

Question #215454785 <-- LOL :/

Is there a way to export all my movies in an HTML file and upload it to a website to show my friends all the stuff I have in case they need anything? And I am looking for a nice looking exporting, with images and stuff.... not just like a list LOL.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - kricker - 2013-01-04

You may want to look at trakt.tv for that kind of thing, or sharethe.tv.

Ah, that's inconvenient. I liked Olympia's scraper because I can ask to get HD fanarts/posters

but it seems that the native scrapper does a very good job: I tested 20 movies and all got high res images with English language.

Thanks a lot.

Olympia scrapers get artwork from the same place as the native scraper namely TMDB, the option for which size it gets during an auto scrape are available in Settings > Movies > Scrapers and Trailers, if you want the option to select the highest resolution when you want to change artwork, manual scrape or rescrape then you need to turn off "use image caching"

thanks for the tip

True, as long as noone takes over the whole project. I'm glad we see some fixes from DanCooper.

BTW, reinstall means replacing the files from the archive. It always went smooth for me. So settings and DB are not lost.

I thought Brodrick was back or that what he said a couple months or so ago. He also announce a new version was coming which was rewritten from ground up and promise an alpha a week later (never came). However he seems to have disappeared again. Dan express he wanted to take it over but stated he wasn't a good enough programmer.

So no idea if EMM is on death watch again or not. However Dan Copper fix did put it on life support.


RE: New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread) - KILLERNADS - 2013-01-04

I downloaded the fix 2 update i think it was from Dan Copper! However im not sure how to install it over my current build without loosing anything such as settings database etc...

Can some one please tell me which files i need to replace in the folder?!

I tried a few different combinations yesterday but all caused some sort of error!

thanks
