RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - garretn - 2014-04-18 (2014-04-18, 16:59)NEOhidra Wrote:(2014-04-18, 15:53)Komet Wrote: MediaElch is not able to directly access XBMCs database. But you can use builtin XBMC synchronization in MediaElch. It will tell XBMC to re-read the changed nfo files. Is "Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC" enabled in XBMC? It'd be under Settings -> Services -> Remote Control. You'll also want to be sure no firewalls are preventing the connection. RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - NEOhidra - 2014-04-18 Here is a screenshot of my settings of: - Webserver - Remote Control - MediaElch After altering something and click Save or Save All nothing happens in XBMC (using XBMCSetup-20140418-4540f80-Gotham it it matters and MediaElch 1.2.1) RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - garretn - 2014-04-18 The save functions only alter the relevant .nfo files. You need to click the XBMC icon in the top bar to sync with XBMC.

After saving you should see a little orange icon in front of the movie title in the list. This means this movie is marked for synching. You can manually add/remove items with the context menu (add to/remove from synchronization queue). Then click on the "XBMC" button in the toolbar to initiate the synchronization. RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - NEOhidra - 2014-04-18 Thank you both for the clarification! Now i feel silly It does work for plot changes but can MediaElch import watched status? Look like XBMC does not reads the watched status from the .nfo file. RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - garretn - 2014-04-18 MediaElch basically removes and adds back items, as opposed to "truly" updating them. As such, this is what you're looking for: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Import-export_library#Watched_status Once XBMC is set to import watched status, it should work fine after that. RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - Komet - 2014-04-18 Just wanted to add this Unfortunately there is no other way to make XBMC re-read the nfo file as to remove and add the movie again.

(2014-04-18, 18:36)Komet Wrote: Just wanted to add thisI doubt that it is something that you missed but i use the Refresh option from Movies/TV shows info window. Can MediaElch trigger it? Both ways do the same but updating the whole library may take some time in contrast to just refreshing a single item. RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - _J@n_ - 2014-04-19 I am a dork! I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and wanted to install MediaElch. Using Synaptic I got the following message: Quote:mediaelch: Been trying to install missing components but have been unsuccessful. Any help greatly appreciated!!!

This could at least allow us to use local images when refreshing a movie into xbmc instead of having to re-download the files again using the manual way with Artwork Downloader. This would save us a lot of time. For us, we would not need to sync the database anymore with xbmc using this method, so we could avoid it. I ask this because your software is a great way to manage our artwork because we see all available artwork at once when we are positionned in a particular movie. So, if these lines could be saved automatically when saving nfo files if artwork is found, that would help a lot. (Of course, this would depend on the way we define how to save the file in your software settings) Code: <discart> Would that be possible to work a way out of this?

Can MediaElch trigger it? At least last time I checked this didn't work for nfo files. But I'll check if XBMCs webinterface provides a new function to trigger the reload.

How would adding these lines to the nfo file help? XBMC and artwork downloader wouldn't use these. If the image is stored locally XBMC, Artwork Downloader and MediaElch would pick them up and would download it again... RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win - LEDFan - 2014-04-19 Yeah you're right sorry. I'm thinking of a way that xbmc could read the images directly from the nfo files but I guess it doesn't work this way. Just too bad it can't be done this way when using Local information only instead of scrapers because of the database.
