Is this the right place to identify issues in using 1.4.x EMM? I am a long time user of the old EMM v1.3 and YanFoe with a Popcorn A400 with Eversion and YAMJ. I love the utility and want to contribute in some way. I recently started to use it in anger again to try and maintain my smallish movie collection which is mainly in M2TS format on a Windows Home server.
A lot has changed since v1.3 and a lot of the faults in v1.3 appear to have been fixed Yay!! The movie information collection is pretty efficient but there are a few areas that I have found needing a little tweaking.
Shall I go ahead and post?
Cheers

Right place, right time. We are working on last fixes for next release. Maybe we also can fix your issues.
Many thanks Dan... I will be going through some of them tonite in a bit more detail when I get home from work and let you know
I think the worst one is the Sets manager which I think actually worked better in v1.3.
1. The method of picking movies to create your Set should default to an alphabetical list of all your movies rather than having to search for them by keyword. Searching by keyword would become a secondary option and v1.3 had this behaviour as default and I preferred it this way. Obviously large lists may need more scrolling.
2. The selection of movies added into the set works fine but the positioning "up" and "down" arrows doesn't work properly. I had to revert to v1.3 for this.
3. I also noticed that once you create a set and then edit or delete it and recreate it the NFO files don't update correctly with the order="x" in the sets subsection. It correctly identifies it as part of a set but not the specific order position. I am manually editing the set_1<movie name>.xml and individual NFO's for this at the moment.
4. I also get a "File inavlid" error box when trying to manually edit the NFO files for movies now and wonder if its because I am using a mix of v1.3 and v1.4 to manage them so this could be my fault.
5. A previous contributor also identified an issue scanning movies with PCM audio tracks although I may have that working. I borrowed his audio PCM flag from his post and I just dropped the flag image into the images folder. I had to map an additional audio codec in the miscellaneous modules but am not sure I have got that correctly set-up. I notice that mediainfo scans it as Format = "PCM" and Codec ID as "128". I probably need to send some screenshots and text from mediainfo on this one
Thats about it for now but will do more later tonite. I really appreciate your utility and great work. Keep it going.
Cheers
Rip
