okay .. new build fixed that last problem Smile

however i'm still having some difficulties

first movie i decided to do is The World Is Not Enough
when it parsed my movie dir, it found my "scene" nfo, pulled the imdb id and renamed it like it should however thats it, it didn't pull any data for it from imdb

when i click on the imdb button at the top, it pulls up the proper page

next movie i tried to do was JCVD .. this time it did pull data from imdb.com however, isn't this tag suppose have the studio also ??

<studio> / 1080p / AC-3 / 6ch / </studio>

that one doesn't have a studio listed on imdb so it didn't grab it.


Ok, another try at things.

- added net to studio line for episodes for skin based flagging
- fixed the error as noted below
- more checks and changes for file level items

Build 2833 - exefilesonly
http://www.mediafire.com/?otzjlm3ddzl


for the error.. I coded around it, and just for fun.. i translated the response to many many times through 4 or 5 languages to come up with the following.

"Zaproszenie do placówki nie było takiego przedmiotu." .. ok nie wiem dokładnie, dlaczego prostytutka się dzieje, ale .. Byłem kontroli na miejscu dla niego.

-- the first translation was this
"Odwołanie do obiektu nie zostało ustawione na wystąpienie obiektu." .. ok nie wiesz dokładnie dlaczego kurwa, że się dzieje, ale .. I've poddane kontroli w miejscu dla niego.

At least that was close to what I was saying.

Should it fix my problems too fekker?

I'll try it out right away.

Edit: Nope, I still get this error:

episode images are the only ones that are on a mirror site that use a non-standard port for http access.

Hi Fekker,

Thanks for your great support and fast response.
Nothing should be firewalled but yes the images came rocketing down Smile or at least gave that appearance.

Can you give me URL/ip/domain name of the mirror, I want to see if I can manually connect to it and see what is going on.
Now Im curious why you use the mirror just for images, is it faster?

Cheers, thanks for a great program also.


- Halibutt - 2009-04-02

Okay, I know this might be a silly question, but I got lost.

I installed 2833, deleted all the .nfo files in my library not to interfere. Scanned for media. Then chose PreCache and... it seems the program cannot find roughly half of my films on IMDB. When scanning Australia (Movies\Australia (2009) [1080p]\refined-australia-blu1080p.mkv) it says that "More than 1 movie was found with that name", yet the only option to browse through available is "tt0305154". How do I force "tt0455824" to show up?

Also, what is the preferred/best settings for XBMC to use the .nfo files before scanning the web for movie info? And what are the best settings for MIP to handle all smoothly? I'm not afraid to rename my files should the need arise, but currently it seems the program's using folders for searching rather than movie files. How do I change that?
Cheers

Click on w/e shows up for australia so that the info shows up in the box with IMDB ID, runtime, top 250, etc. Punch in the proper IMDB ID in the box, then click the green button to update everything. When updating is done, click save. Wink

If you use [1080p] in the foldername, it's going to use that in the search on imdb.. thus finding only one movie.

anything you see in the left list is what it'll search imdb with.. so you'll want that to look like a standard search.

you could either add in a filter of [1080p] to the settings.. which will make it ignore that for all movies.. or change to use (1080p) which it has built in filters for.

the dialog shows only 1 item, but that's only becuase it (mostly) filters out duplicates from the list.. prob a bad name for the title.

to specify the imdbid to use, it can be in a movie.nfo file.. just the imdb id, and it'll grab that during a scan

in addition, in the gui, you can put in the correct imdbid and click the green refresh button as DigitalHigh pointed out Big Grin


- akmofo - 2009-04-02

How do you add posters/fanart to movies not in the imdb? Once I cleared out the imdb ID from the movie, if I click add background, or add poster it tells me I must choose a movie first.


- Halibutt - 2009-04-02

I was asking about the auto-functions, but if manual selection works just fine then it's ok. Thanks for a quick response. And what about XBMC? What's the best settings? Will it automagically grab data from the nfo files, or will it search the Internet first?

Also, what am I getting wrong? I find the right movie using the built-in functions, but in the window to the right only the IMDB number and title appear. No director, no rating, nothing. Hitting "Refresh" doesn't help either.
Cheers

just put in something into that imdbid field.. like hm000001 (home movie 1).. etc
and click the button labeled "save" .. then it'll let ya add it.

Add the filter for [1080p] and then reload the movies.. it'll give a big long list of items..

OR put tt0455824 in the imdbid field and click on the small green circle next to it to reload that movie.
with that it will show all the data... i tested to confirm on my end... if that doesn't happen please let me know

UPDATE: your right it's not updating.. i musta broke that .. i'll get it fixed up


folder level works best
the defaults for mip are to create movie.nfo and <moviename>.nfo
with those two, xbmc is going to use the .nfo file information and not go out and search for it

MIP only cares what the folder name is called, not the filename inside it. And with movie.nfo, movie.tbn, and fanart.jpg.. xbmc doesn't care either.

If you want the moviename to match the foldername, there's an option to enable automatic renaming in the settings.


changing studio - vism - 2009-04-02

what's the correct way to change the studio information for a movie. For instance Beauty & the Beast is pulling up Silverlight Productions or something and I want to change it to Walt Disney Pictures. I changed it in the field and clicked save and it shows but it doesn't seem to update the nfo.


- akmofo - 2009-04-02

Thanks for the quick info!!


- Halibutt - 2009-04-03

Thanks, Fekker, you're my hero! Can't wait to see the next version Smile (switched back to 2832) BTW, the download of the installer files from Mediafire doesn't work. The page says something about lack of free servers or something along those lines.
Cheers
