Here's what I have so far for the next release:

Code:
* Fix: New-Auto updater not working
    * Fix/Change: Do not run media info scan for .rar, .iso, .img, .dat, .bin, .cue
    * Fix/Change: Do not split double genres (ie anime/manga)
    * Fix/Change: Right-click menu behavior
    * Change: Tweaks to marking movies
    * Change: If movie is selected in list, reload info after running updater in case items were updated

Am I over-looking any bugs anyone has reported so far?

if I read that right, why ignore .iso files? If a DVD is ripped as as ISO, XBMC will play it just fine, so its a valid media file. Or did I miss something with your program?

"media info scan"

It will not try to pull information about the file (codec, resolution, etc)

It will still scrape it

Thanks, indy.

Well, if things continue like this I'll be making the next release tomorrow night and get started on the feature request list. Nobody has any more bugs to fix or tweaks to make?? Guess it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. lol

nul7, Do you have a plan for when you may add the tv show portion of EMM? I know you want to fix all the current bugs and all, but my curiosity is getting to me (don't want to have to use MIP anymore... Smile )

All I can say at this point is "When the movies section is done". lol I keep saying "I'll start on it in maybe a week or two", but I've kept busy enough with the movies section so far that I haven't even began planning it out. I still have 16 feature requests to get in and fixing any quirks/bugs that come with those. So, maybe in a week or two? lol

No worries, I can hold tight. At least it's now the offseason for most tv shows anyway. Keep up the awesome work!

nul7 Wrote:The right-click menu behavior is all screwed up in r200. I've made a lot of changes to that already in the SVN. Here's a version from earlier today: http://www.cube3studios.com/EMM/EMM.zip

Give that a try and see if the problem is still there. If so, please open a new issue on the google page and we can look into it further.

Behavior changed but not quite right yet. No longer affects just movies with same name. I've tried to narrow it down a little more.

If the default movie is selected (the first one at the top of the list) because you just changed filters or whatever, then you RIGHT click another movie and select Mark, that title turns red. Then select the Marked Movies filter. No movies will show. If you unselect the Marked Movies filter, the movie will still be marked red.

The problem only happens when the default (first) movie is highlighted and you haven't left clicked on any movie. You have to LEFT click on the movie title (or any other movie title) before right clicking and marking.

The same goes for unmarking.

Clear as mud?

nul7 Wrote:I can add another option to VIDEO_TS handling.... so there would be "Support YAMJ VIDEO_TS" and "Support XBMC VIDEO_TS". You would have to select one or the other or both... but at least one has to be selected. But then the items in each folder would have to be the same. So, it can either be different info in each folder, but you would have to keep switching YAMJ compatible on/off..... or have the 2 options and both have the same info. Whatever you guys want.... I don't have any full dvd rips so it doesn't matter to me. lol

Let me get back to you on that. Too may permutations this late at night for such a small mind. I'll do some testing and mock ups tomorrow so I know what I'm talking about.

Errrrr.... uh... yeah.... that made complete sense to me. Huh lol Nah, I think I got the gist. Try this one:

No problem... let me know.

@nul7
Maybe its asked before but i cant find it atm.
Which imdb formats EMM can be read from original nfos and how you parse this infos ?

like:
Code:
http://www.imdb.de/............
(think this didnt work atm) if you want to make it working pls dont use imdb.de direct. Just parse the "tt" # and than use imdb.com to get the infos.
Code:
http://www.imdb.com/.........
this works but not all the time

Must be the name of the nfo the same as the from the mkv ?

I played here with an nfo file but EMM still cant read it.


Edit1:
Code:
IMDB LINK.....: http://www.imdb.com/...
Sorry, this works but the nfo name must be the same as the mkv name. Is this necessary ? Cant you simply scan for an file *.nfo inside the folder ?

What do you mean by scrape it ? Does it scrape from the nfo, so i need to use another program for the media nfo ? or don't use ISO anymore and use video TS ? or what is best for DVD Rips ?

It simply looks for "tt######" anywhere in the nfo.... doesn't matter if it's just the ID or a full URL. Currently, it just checks the file as it's loading it, so it would have to have a name compatible with what file type you have in settings (either <movie>.nfo or movie.nfo). I suppose I could have it look for any nfo file if the file it's looking for doesn't exist. Please add that as an enhancement request to the google code page and I'll work on that.

He meant that Ember will detect the ISO as a movie file and you'll be able to scrape information, posters, and fanart, you just won't be able to get metadata from it (the source, resolution, audio, and channels tags). You can either manually enter the information in the movie editor or change to VIDEO_TS format. I don't think there is a program out there at the moment that can scan metadata from disc images yet.... at least not one that is a dedicated scanner, anyways.

OK i'll do it manually then till there is a way to do it with EMM. But there is a program that does it from iso's it's not dedicated but I have all metadata from my ISO's with MIP.
