@ArieS: Looks like you're suffering from old settings. Have a look at MediaElch -> Settings -> Movies. There are the filenames, just double click on "clearart.png" and change it to "logo.png" and the inverse for the Logo.
The same goes for the nfo files. In the settings you can setup more than one nfo file. In your case there should be a "movie.nfo" and an entry "<baseFileName>.nfo" just right click on the "movie.nfo" and choose delete.

Komet, thanks a lot for the quick response
Can't believe it was all in the settings lol
What sucks is now I have all my movie collection with the movie.nfos that I need to remove one by one.... Or is there a known way to get rid of them at once?

@Komet,
I just started using MEdiaElch and I really like it.

A few questions...

1) Can you add the option to use standard Frodo file naming when using separate folder? The app I was using before used Frodo naming from the FAQ: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBM...odo%29_FAQ ... and now your app added a ton more files to each folder. Also, a 'clean up' routine would be nice too

2) Can you add a feature to do mass updates of specific items, like subtitles, actors, posters, etc? This way we can keep the items we want and update only the items we need.

thx

1) Frodo filenames are used as default. Just have a look at MediaElch -> Settings -> Movies/TV Shows/Concerts. And can you tell me what these "tons" of added files are?

2) It's already there Select multiple movies, hit the Search button and select the items you wish to update.

If you are on Linux or Mac OS you can do something like

Code:

for nfo in `find . -name movie.nfo` ; do rm $nfo ; done

. (I haven't tested this and you should know what you're doing when using this )

@ytime: There was a packaging error caused by a broken libmediainfo build. The download links have been updated and you can find the new version at http://www.mediaelch.de/download/

Indeed, it's much better now. Thanks!

wish list:

an option to create 4 extrathumbs (using in Aeon Nox or such for the little frames used in some types of view)
an option to download only actors with images from imdb
merge the scrapers (some fields from MovieDB and others fromd IMDB e.g.)
option to download from youtube trailers.

[solamnic]

sorry about my dump question..

but how can i reload the episode info from the web? (overview, thumb etc... )

seriously:

the most desirable for me it's the option to download only actors with images from imdb (you said it) and the option to lock the edited details for language streamdetails not overwritten when you clikc refresh!. And what about the option to create 4 extrathumbs?..

Cheeeeeers!

Request: Can you please add in Options Movie Section Set poster and fanart, file naming, preferences?

Thank you for your great work

@ytime: There was a packaging error caused by a broken libmediainfo build. The download links have been updated and you can find the new version at http://www.mediaelch.de/download/

To clarify... you are using the Frodo naming structure for a single folder with all movies in it... but you don't have an option for the Frodo standard where each movie is in a separate folder (which is what I think most people do). Thus, the Frodo standard for separate folders is 'movie.nfo' not <filename>-movie.nfo , etc

By tons of files, I mean that since do not have an option for Frodo separate folder, and the other media manager apps do, I now have 2x, or more, media files in each folder than I should... which creates a problem if we use more than one media manager... It would be nice to have your app, since I like it best, support both Frodo standards... and clean up unnecessary files in the process (e.g. the files not used for the standard the user chooses)

Request: Can you please add in Options Movie Section Set poster and fanart, file naming, preferences?

Thank you for your great work

These settings are already there? "Movie Set poster filename" and "Movie set fanart filename"...

---

@Livin: <filename>.nfo is used by default because it works with movies in separate folders and with multiple movies within a single folder. If all your movies are in separate folders then you can just change <baseFileName>.nfo to movie.nfo

I mean if it is possible to add another naming for set posters and fanart (like the movie poster and fanart) (lets say for movie set poster folder.jpg AND Set_<set name>_1.jpg - as it is on movie posters and fanart))
