BTW: Transifex fetches only the english lang files from Github.

The process is therefore as follows:
- modilfy English (source) file on Github
- Transifex read the English files once a day
- files must be translated on Transifex
- I upload the translated / updated files (manually) back to Github

Thank you for hard work!

Question:
does the configuration change between the DB's or we keep it identical-common?

In other words the Open menu will only look for the Ember DB OR it need to look for the DB and the AdvancedSettings.xml?

DB, Settings.xml and AdvancedSettings.xml. The server from neighbors e.g. other network drives and XBMC Eden instead of Frodo.

ok
will look into it

Maybe I found a nice solution

[Remmie]

Tnx for the explaination. This way I'm sure my files won't get overwritten by Transifex or Github after I update them.
I'm glad to be of help, I like to tribute to this wonderful mediamanager!

btw: you can add my ftp to your sig (see 1st post)

edit: done for today! I've reached 35% so far

Team,
the TMDB scraper compiled (code complete) and settings windows is up (WOW)!

now I have to see if it works or not


Question:
does anyone knows - uses:
http://fanart.tv

for movie info and-or fanart?

is it worthy to add it?

Fanart.tv for tv shows would be great (landscape, logo, clearart, seasonXX-landscape.jpg). There was ever a module, unfortunately I did not get the source code.
If you would add TMDB and fanart.tv I take the banner support part (thetvdb).
Tomorrow I make the BDMV support for Frodo and repair the finished results for IMDB.
Then I think we could make a new release.

[m.savazzi]

My objective is to have a native TMDB scraper.
The TVDB is ok for me (am I wrong)?

Once TMDB works I can add Fanart.tv as the api use the TMDB code...

I will probably provide the scraper in beta for you to test too

Thanks tug for how to do the ignore list

The one thing that keeps me from using Ember for TV Shows instead of Sickbeard (not counting still airing shows) is the lack of the use of the following fields,

<displayseason></displayseason>
<displayepisode></displayepisode>

These are helpful for special episodes (or where movies take place in the series).
An Example would be Doctor Who: (Posting only needed information)

<title>The Christmas Invasion</title>
<season>0</season>
<episode>2</episode>
<aired>2005-12-25</aired>
<displayseason>2</displayseason>
<displayepisode>1</displayepisode>

This information would enable the episode to be read as a special (series movie), and be displayed in the Second season, where it takes place

Has this been implemented?

I am trying to setup Ember to scan my TV files. My episodes are ripped to DVD_Folders as such:
TV\
----->Show Name
---------->Season XX
--------------->SxxExx
-------------------->VIDEO_TS

Can some provide some assistance with setting up the regex properly to get Ember to scan the files correctly? I have searched but did not find anything that seem to relate to this. Thanks in advance.

I am having similar issues with Ember finding video_ts discs.

Is there a solution or....?

TIA,

AL

Yes, with next release. Video_TS and Blu-Ray support for Frodo.

Im another person having a similar problem. How deeply does Ember recurse when scanning TV files? It doesn't seem to like having the media files (mine are RAR archives instead of VIDEO_TS, but the result seems to be the same) underneath an Episode directory. And there doesn't appear to be a checkbox for "Scan recursively" when adding TV sources, like there is for Movie sources.

Im wondering whether its a limitation of the program that it wont go deep enough to find TV\Show\Season\Episode\Files.rar or whether I'm just missing something?

Cheers.

Ok it appears that the renamer creates the issue

[Biggrich76]

First of all, I'd like to say thank you to the people who continue development on this tool. It has helped me keep my media collection in great shape.

Secondly, I'd like to ask for some support using EMM with YAMJ, TV Shows and artwork. Using EMM release 1.3.0.9 and YAMJ Compatibility module enabled, all boxes checked.

EMM correctly updates the following artwork;

Show fanart as Set_<Show>_1.fanart.jpg
Show poster as Set_<Show>_1.jpg
Season poster as <Show><Episode>SxxE01.jpg
Season fanart as <Show><Episode>SxxE01.fanart.jpg
Episode posters as <Show>.videoimage.jpg
but some of these require boxes to be checked in TV Shows - Files and Sources - File Naming in order to scrape properly, which creates extra artwork which is not needed by YAMJ

It does not properly save show banners or season banners. It's saving the following;

All Seasons poster as Season1.banner.jpg instead of Set_<Show>_1.banner.jpg
Not saving Season banners at all, or even prompting to scrape them

My hopeful question; Can the YAMJ Compatibility module be built into the TV Shows - Files and Sources - File Naming dialogue instead of requiring a separate module which doesn't function properly? ie. Can you add boxes to the File Naming section in order to accommodate YAMJ naming conventions?

I am willing to donate and help test, and I know other YAMJ users would donate for this functionality as well.

In case you don't know, here is the proper structure for YAMJ TV Shows and artwork;

Code:

-- Homeland
   -- Season 1
      -- Set_Homeland_1.jpg // this is the show poster
      -- Set_Homeland_1.fanart.jpg // this is the show fanart
      -- Set_Homeland_1.banner.jpg // this is the show banner
      -- [b]Set_Homeland_1.nfo // this is the show NFO[/b]
      -- Homeland S01E01 Pilot.jpg // this is the season 1 poster
      -- Homeland S01E01 Pilot.banner.jpg // this is the season 1 banner
      -- Homeland S01E01 Pilot.fanart.jpg // this is the season 1 fanart
      -- Homeland S01E01 Pilot.videoimage.jpg // this is the episode fanart
      -- Homeland S01E01 Pilot.nfo // this is the episode NFO
   -- Season 2
      -- Homeland S02E01 The Smile.jpg // this is the season poster
      -- Homeland S02E01 The Smile.banner.jpg // this is the season banner
      -- Homeland S02E01 The Smile.fanart.jpg // this is the season fanart
      -- Homeland S02E01 The Smile.videoimage.jpg // this is the episode fanart
      -- Homeland S02E01 Pilot.nfo // this is the episode NFO

So what will it be used for movies?

Sorry, I left out the NFO because EMM appears to be saving the NFOs properly. I've added them to your above quote for clarity, and also updated a mistake I made in the original post.

I use EMM for Movies currently and it works flawlessly. My issues with EMM+ YAMJ only appear for TV Shows.
