After using Ember to setup posters and fanart, how do we automatically add all the movies to xbmc?

I searched and found this way:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=510862&postcount=11

but it requires doing it 1 movie at a time, which will take forever. Is there an automated way?

Thanks! Smile

how do we add our newly built poster/fanart/movie database into xbmc?

i only found this way to do it:

but it's not automated Sad


How do you add a hard drive source that has been formatted by Ember? - NeoDuck - 2010-05-03

Hi, how do you add a hard drive source that has been formatted by Ember?

I searched and found this way:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=510862&postcount=11

but you can only add 1 movie at a time using this method Sad

Is there an automated way to add all the movies on a hard drive?

Thanks!

I know the connection to XBMC is good, because when I hit the Update XBMC button in the upper right hand corner of EMM, I can see the Update message on XBMC. I'm also looking at the movies table in XBMC and don't see any changes.

Movie itself will have that info (genre) updated. ATM the XBMC Genre list is not being update. Open a Feature request so we dont forget about it .. TY

I don't think you understand what I'm saying. If I add an existing genre, such as Action, to a movie in EMM, is that suppose to show up in XBMC. It is not for me. I don't think my EMM is connecting to the XBMC database? How do I troubleshoot this?

Sparks14 Wrote:Help me understand the XBMC sync. I haven't been able to get it to work yet...so I want to make sure I understand what I need to do. I'm currently using XBMC module version 2207(which I believe has a bug since after I deleted my existing XBMC config, I can't add it again...but I'll fill out a bug report for that) with EMM version 1.2.2204. With XBMC sync, if I make a change in EMM, should I be able to see that change immediately in XBMC or do I need to do anything. For instance, if I add a genre to a movie in EMM and then go to that movie in XBMC, should I see the new genre added?

Yeah I'm also a little confused as to how this feature works. I too have made changes to EMM and don't know what's been updated in XBMC? Sometimes it doesn't look like any changes have been made to XBMC?

Actually there is no real database connection. Ember is comunicating with XBMC's database in the same way (HTTP API), like the "Library Update" initiation what you reported working. Interesting. Genre update for existing genres should work (I've just retested).

Is real-time sync enabled both globally and specifically for the xbmc instance you've set?

Is update of anything else is working? Like if you change a single char in the plot?

And by the way: http://embermm.com/projects/embermm/wiki/XBMC_Controller

Yes, is suposed to show in the Movie detail! But as i post before, XBMC Genre list is not updated ATM.. mean if you try to filter movies by genre, will not show there!

i see there is no ticket open for the trailers problem i am having, is anyone else having issues, it bring up the list (normally just one) but when you click 'download' the dialog just closes and no trailer is saved?

I think this is because the youtube link on TMDB is wrong. Please verifiy the URLs that Ember is scraping from TMDB if they exist.


- lestat1977uk - 2010-05-03

Yes i think that may be it (i tried pasting one into IE and it was broken) , but how do i fix that, how do i get it to use valid URLs as it used too?

It's not Ember. Youtube must have changed their URL format and the one which is linked on themoviedb.com is wrong. We can do nothing about this.

Ember can only get the URL which is entered at tmdb. You can go to themoviedb.com and check the URL at the movie. If it is wrong, then you can change it there and Ember will scrape it then correctly after themoviedb.com sync the data to be available via their API.

Humm... Ember can only use valid URL if they are valid lol... I mean, contact TMDB so they fix URL.
