Well since the raspberry pi is so slow importing items into the library isn't that just a bigger reason to have a shared library on another machine? Then the quicked machine does most of the work and the raspberry only reads it.

No there's no option where the files goes, it's hardcoded to the same as the local db folder. The file is called watched.xml. But I think once you start having a big sample of watched movies/episodes you will start feeling it's slow on the raspberry pi also.

Exporting/Importing to a totally different set of files is possible but you might get a lot of misses due to filename not being identical (something being worked on with tvdb id and imdb id).

Version 1.3.1
- Fixed missing count value in old files could lead to error.
- Added lastPlayed info.

I'm working on the tvdb id and also imdb id, but to get it to work I have to split the info into series and movies so it's a bit more work.

Last night I completely wiped my HTPC, and installed XBMCbuntu from scatch... also set up mySQL on my unRaid...

Right before the wipe, I did an export, and watched.xml was the only file I saved...

Imported ~5500 watched statuses in just under a minute! Smile

Thanks for the plugin, don't know what I would have done without it! Big Grin

Very nice to hear that clock2113 Smile

Have you noticed if there were any missing after the import?
Just checking since you have quite a large collection and I'm always looking to improve the code. Smile

Well, I've been working on setting up my shared library due to your suggestion, once i have it all figured out it should work.

but your script has helped me out alot as i just ended up rescanning entire library into mysql as the 'library import' feature didn't work properly, but was nice for me just to have to import watched data to get like 500 items flagged Smile

When importing the .xml file it seems that .flv files won't get marked as watched again.

I think there's something else that's causing the problem, can't see any reason why the extension would cause a problem.

Could you have a look in the xml-file and see if they are there and look ok.

*edit*
Did a quick test here with an import of a few flv-files and it worked as it should.

<file count="1" id="4267">s2009e01 PCA 2009 - High Roller - Episode 1.flv</file>

could it be the " - " in the filenames that causing this?

Fox · 2012-06-08, 19:10

Very strange, do you get them shown as errors in the dialog box or do they just not get marked as watched?

mcfrojd · 2012-06-08, 19:16

no error just not marked.

i went trou all xml file looking for .flv files, the ones with an " - " and sometimes "-" seems to be the ones making trouble.
Gonna look if some other files with " - " or "-" is doing the same.

That might be, I'll check that.

Hmmm could be the season episode in the beginning but I don't see why that should be a problem.

mcfrojd · (This post was last modified: 2012-06-08, 19:40 by mcfrojd.)

maybe some combo with season and episode in the beginning and the use of space " " in filenames.
i seem to have about 300 files thats won't get marked, when making a new export it reports about 300 files less then when importing the previous file

These files in my xml file seems a bit strange to.
<file count="1" id="3515">banner.jpg</file>
<file count="1" id="3518">season-all.jpg</file>
<file count="1" id="3520">folder.jpg</file>

i can confirm that all lines in my xml file that starts with s**e** won't get marked

Fox · (This post was last modified: 2012-06-08, 19:44 by Fox.)

Ya I tried it with minus signs here and that seems to be fine.

But I wonder what happens with your files that begin with season and episode, do they get scanned into the library correctly?

*edit*
Did you export with another version then the one you are using now?

*edit2*

wow those are really strange, how can they be in the video database at all.
