Movies works fine but TV browser is not populating? I even tried using both IP and Host name. Ideas?

Glad you got it sorted.

I did by guessing... it is not intuitive. What would be intuitive is if the huge button staring the user in the face did that for when the browser is not populated (e.g. a fresh install, etc)

I can see in the changelog that saving of poster.jpg is fixed, however it's still not working for me...the option is selected, and I've tried both "use folder names for scraping" and "all movies are in folders", but it makes no difference. Additionally, MC is not displaying any posters that currently exist as poster.jpg....it just shows the blue "no poster is available for this media type"...

I never have "download posters during autoscrape" enabled as I prefer to pick and choose the art myself. When it is not enabled, downloading a poster manually always creates moviename-poster.jpg irrespective of the "save as poster.jpg" tick. Only when "during autoscrape" is selected, does poster.jpg get created ALONG with moviename-poster.jpg, which is basically unnecessarily doubling images....is this intended?

The naming of posters and fanart is inconsistent, No matter that "Frodo and onwards", "All movies in folders", "Use folder.jpg" and "Use fanart.jpg" are ticked and saved. I get different results depending which method I use to get artwork. With these options set I would expect one "Poster.jpg " and one "Fanart.jpg" in each movie folder, no more, no less, regardless of method used. Also, it seems like you can't avoid getting extra artwork when manually scraping artwork. I even got fanart.tbn in one case....

Now, don't get me wrong here. I really appreciate the effort you guys put into making MC a killer app, and your'e pretty damn close! One you manage to sort out the remaining bugs....

Edit: Let me get more specific. I have a movie "Argo (2012).mkv" in a folder "Argo (2012)". What artwork do I get using the different methods available?

1. Right click on movie in movielist and selecting....
- Rescrape all: Argo (2012)-fanart.jpg + Argo (2012)-poster.jpg + fanart.jpg + poster.jpg.
- Frodo poster thumbs: None
- Frodo fanart thumbs: None
- Poster browser (alternative): Argo (2012).tbn
- Fanart browser (alternative): Argo (2012)-fanart.jpg
2. Poster tab - manual selection: Argo (2012)-poster.jpg
3. Fanart tab - manual selection: Argo (2012)-fanart.jpg + fanart.jpg
4. batch rescraping wizard: Same as for "rescrape all" (see above).


What artwork is displayed in the Main browser (Movies)?

Poster.jpg: No
Fanart.jpg: No
<foldername>-poster.jpg: Yes
<foldername>-fanart.jpg: Yes
<foldername>.tbn: Yes

I'm also a bit confused about naming conventions in the GUI. Is Fanart = Backdrop? Is Thumb = Poster? Maybe someone could be kind enough to clarify this to an ignorant like myself
