RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - ss4johnny - 2016-07-13 (2016-07-11, 16:48)DanCooper Wrote: Should been fixed since Alpha17: Commit Cool. I hadn't had a chance to upgrade. If I have a problem with the latest, I'll post again. RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - JanM201 - 2016-07-13 Hi Dan, Just want to clarify: 1.) Theme scraper still not working. It doesn't scrape any themes for movies or Tv shows. 2.) Season scraping not working. It doesn't give me anything when I re-scrape season. PS: I did install the new Alpha version. RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - ss4johnny - 2016-07-13 I've used the bulk-renamer with movies successfully, but it looks like some things that might be helpful for TV shows are not available. Is there any way to use it only on just marked shows or selected shows or a particular source? This probably could apply to movies as well. Also, is it possible to append the absolute episode number of a show at the end? For instance, instead of ShowName.SXXEYY.EpTitle, you would have ShowName.SXXEYY.EpTitle - (ZZZ).mp4.

If you filter by Marked, the Bulk Renamer lists also only marked movies/tv shows. Maybe i can change that a little bit and add also Selected like in Custom Scraper.

TVDB has informations about absolue or DVD numbering and that will not be saved in database.

GoEar is a little bit crappy atm. 1) Theme scraping for tv shows is not really implemented, maybe I can fix that 2) Season scraping do only scrape season informations and images, not episode informations. It's planed to change this, but atm I work on a new scraper structure. RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - JanM201 - 2016-07-13 How do I actually scrape themes for movies? When I scrape a movie it doesn't scrape any themes. Also, When I re-scrape a season, it doesn't give me any images. In fact it doesn't do anything. Thanks RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - DanCooper - 2016-07-13 (2016-07-13, 12:57)JanM201 Wrote: How do I actually scrape themes for movies? When I scrape a movie it doesn't scrape I don't scrape themes ;-) You can check if it works in Edit dialog => Theme (tab) => Scrape. Try it with a blockbuster movie like Matrix or Titanic. Which tv show scraper do you have enabled and i which order? Also try to scrape the images manually in Edit Season dialog. The preselted image in top of the Image Select dialog is the same like Ember use while autoscraping.

Quote:No, that's not possible. This value is not always known. TVDB has informations about absolue or DVD numbering and that will not be saved in database. What if you allow that information to be pulled by TVDB? Could be helpful for re-naming anime. One other question: I noticed that Video Source is rarely ever set in any of my movies, so it really doesn't make sense to use with the bulk re-namer. How does that value get set?

How does that value get set?You can set it manually in Edit Movie/Episode dialog. We have 4 ways to automatically recognize the videosource (all only while importing the media to database or if you use Reload/F5):

Dan, the changes you made in alpha 18 work for me with my season specials, thank you... just another quick question. I currently use themetabrowser but will be moving to ember.. question is does ember or can ember use existing artwork and nfo files? would like to migrate without having to rescrape and/or the least amount of issues if possible. thanks -Mike RE: Ember Media Manager 1.4.8.0 ALPHA - Discussion Thread - DanCooper - 2016-07-13 (2016-07-13, 17:51)michaeljtaylor Wrote:(2016-07-08, 09:51)DanCooper Wrote:(2016-07-08, 03:41)michaeljtaylor Wrote: here are my settings Ember can read NFO if they have the same nodes like Kodi/Ember use(maybe you can post a NFO on http://pastebin.com/ for me to check it). It's also possible to add any file name for posters, fanarts ect. in expert settings. Please also post a screenshot or list of your existing image file names.

Default Kodi image naming for movies is always <filename>-imagetype.ext. Look at our table to find the proper ones: Link But the NFO looks horrible There are some issues you have to fix manually: the Top250 value has to be 0 or another integer, empty is not allowed: Code: <top250>0 all "false" and "true" values have to be in lowercase, not "False" or "True": Code: <forced>false</forced> Maybe there are more issues in other NFOs... But there is an easy way to fix all NFO (in two steps or so) with TextCrawler. You can use simple regex find and replace all bad entries. Use this one: STEP 1: Reg Ex: Code: <top250>.*?</top250> Replace: Code: <top250>0</top250> STEP 2: Find: Code: True Replace: Code: true STEP 3: do the same for False EDIT: Btw, I whould rescrape all NFO and metadata after adding your movie the Embers database. There are some informations missing. You can use the Custom Scraper to rescrape only NFO and Metadata to keep your existing images and trailers.

Wow, thank you so much for the detailed information and instructions... I too am sure there are many .NFO files that are in just as bad shape as the one I posted I will follow your instructions and hopefully all goes well... not sure when I'll have time to do this but I will let you know how it goes when I do prepare nfo's and attempt migration to ember.. one other quick question. I know this is alpha but it seems pretty stable so far, but at this time I'm only testing this using limited test datasets for movies and tv shows. I have over 1000 movies + tv shows. do you think it would be best to wait until ember is out of alpha phase? thanks again.. your help is greatly appreciated. -Mike |
