- RockDawg - 2009-08-04 FYI - joelmeans has just submitted a patch that allows XBMC to use a "SortTitle" field to allow for custom grouping/sorting. This definitely needs added to Ember. Finally, I can have all my Die Hard movies together and in chronological order. Here's the post: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=55559 Here's the ticket: http://www.xbmc.org/trac/ticket/7008 - nul7 - 2009-08-04 RockDawg Wrote:FYI - joelmeans has just submitted a patch that allows XBMC to use a "SortTitle" field to allow for custom grouping/sorting.

If it utilizes the same structure for the nfo as YAMJ (many users use both programs so this data is already in the nfo file... the XBMC team should consider it for compatibility) then we already do support it. - RockDawg - 2009-08-04 nul7 Wrote:If it utilizes the same structure for the nfo as YAMJ (many users use both programs so this data is already in the nfo file... the XBMC team should consider it for compatibility) then we already do support it. I'm not sue what structure YAMJ uses, but the ticket for the patch says, "This value is set by adding a <sorttitle></sorttitle> field in the .nfo file for a video and re-scanning the file into your collection.". I was just looking around in Ember, but I don't see any field for an alternate title. Where is this currently for the YAMJ suport? - RockDawg - 2009-08-04 After further review, I notice the <title> and <originaltitle> field under manual edit. I take it that means the current XBMC implimentation is different? - JustinAiken - 2009-08-04 I just rename mine such as "James Bond 20: Casino Royal" or "Harry Potter 3: The Prisoner of Azkaban" Works well for me, I prefer that to dealing with sort fields even if it was an option... - nul7 - 2009-08-04 This is how YAMJ handles them: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/BoxedSets In Ember, it's Tools -> Sets Manager - user321 - 2009-08-04 EDIT: Nevermind. I have solved my own problem - Dougie085 - 2009-08-04 Nevermind I see the fix now. - PrimaryMaster - 2009-08-05 ........... i did a clean install of the r1006 ... but now the EEM dont read the NFO files.. He finds that i has a trailer, subtitle and extra thumbnails, but nothing else... even if there is a fanart and poster and stuff... why? - Virtual01 - 2009-08-05 Hi everybody, I have one suggestion for this program, but first have to say that I downloaded XBMC today and it's awesome it's the best program ever, and I just found it by accident! I'm reading this forum all day, installed some plugins and scripts... But to get to the point - I delete majority of my films after I watched them, but I'd like them to be in catalog too, and I was thinking it would be good to just download the trailers of that movies and put them instead of actual movies. It would be good if this program could read from *.txt file as source (one file that contains movie titles), so I wouldn't have to download every trailer manually. - hman333 - 2009-08-05 you can get Ember to go through your movies and download trailers automatically - RKMFlorida - 2009-08-05 Quote:Originally Posted by rusten Yes, of course I'm familiar with the metadata issue. HOWEVER, I was not referring to the issues related to pulling metadata out of the videos. I was referring to issues that relate *only* to using the file name to scrape data. More importantly, I mentioned the bug with the window getting cutoff on the IMDB Movie Picking dialog. This is now fixed, however, the screen still cuts off the bottom of the buttons just a bit, so you may want to give it a bit more padding, just to be safe (for system with large fonts, etc). There is one new bug relating to .ISO's in r1006: The recent .ISO issue is fixed, however it continues to "hang" for awhile while scanning metadata. Almost as if it's timing-out on something. This is the "Scanning Metadata" phase, and it is roughly a 2+ minute delay. In earlier versions this did not happen. Technically the "scanning metadata" phase should be skipped with the .ISO file format, because it's *only* using .ISO's for the file name (and not inspecting the internals), or ... has this changed recently in an attempt to actually read into the .ISO? If you are doing something internal with .ISO's, perhaps the user should have the option of skipping this, and simply using the .ISO name for scraping purposes. More importantly... Is there any possible way (please, please) to offer the user the option of displaying the filename in the left-pane, rather than the movie name. After auto-naming, this is very confusing. For example, my naming methodology is like this "Austin Powers 1, Austin Powers 2, Austin Powers 3" where as the renamed version might be "The spy who shagged me, Goldmember, etc". If I were able to see the original file-name, it would be so much easier to hone-in on the files and re-name, etc. Your confidence ranking is a HUGE help (thank you for that, btw), but I feel that many people will find it more intuitive to work with filenames than with the renamed version (at least have the option), since the renaming process can produce unexpected results. - Evanrich - 2009-08-05 I just installed latest ember (1006 or 1009, whatever it is) on windows 7 RC, and this is what I see in the top of the window. Skins in XBMC show the resolution fine, but I'm not shure why there are 2 ? marks at the top of the window in ember...any ideas? - olympia - 2009-08-05 Evanrich Wrote:I just installed latest ember (1006 or 1009, whatever it is) on windows 7 RC, and this is what I see in the top of the window. Skins in XBMC show the resolution fine, but I'm not shure why there are 2 ? marks at the top of the window in ember...any ideas? The first question mark is referring to the media source(which original media was used originally as a base of your file). This is extracted from the file/folder name, so to live with that option, you have to include this flag in your file/folder name. Like "James.Bond.Whatever.DVD" if the original source was a DVD, or "James.Bond.Whatever.Blu-Ray" for Blu-Ray source, etc. Second question mark is for resolution. It's odd, if you see it correctly in XBMC, but not in Ember. Could you please provide some more info on this? What type of file it it? What is the resoultion? and what Ember display in the "Meta Data" panel for resolution? - olympia - 2009-08-05 rusten Wrote:The recent .ISO issue is fixed, however it continues to "hang" for awhile while scanning metadata. Almost as if it's timing-out on something. This is the "Scanning Metadata" phase, and it is roughly a 2+ minute delay. In earlier versions this did not happen. That's what I tried to explain you. However I made a typo, what could cause some misunderstanding. "ISOs are not excluded totally" = "ISOs are now excluded totally". And I also should have mentioned that it was only a fix at SVN at that time. Nevertheless, if you would have read only 3-4 posts further than my original response, you had found r1008 posted by Nuno, which include the fix for this. rusten Wrote:More importantly... Is there any possible way (please, please) to offer the user the option of displaying the filename in the left-pane, rather than the movie name. That's not a bad idea, I wanted to have that option as well. However there are some technical/coding difficulties to solve this with the current implementation of Ember which could cause too much work/rewrite at this point. Jason could explain it in detail (if he wants... lol). |
