Kudos!!! awesome will test and report any issues
Angelscry Wrote:Add "import plot from text file" option: Because there is no simply way to edit long texts directly from XBMC and because scrapers will never be able to report the plot for all games, this option will give you the possibility to import any common text files as game plot information. I think this option could be improved (I'm not totally satisfied). If you have any suggestion or a better idea, do not hesitate to share.

joelones Wrote:I'm trying to change a thumbnail via the addon and the addon.py script is failing. This is the error message and seems like a smb thing.Hummm... Yes strange. This error occurs when the Advanced Launcher try to replace the XBMC cached thumbnail image with the new selected image using this command : "(shutil.copy2( file_path , cached_thumb )". file_path is the path of the selected image and cached_thumb is the path of the cached thumbnails image. I do not think it is related to permission access problem because XBMC must have access to its proper cache folder. I'm going to investigate on the shutil.copy2 python command. Maybe it is not compatible with smb shares. Do you have the same problem if the thumbnails directory is local? Thank you for your feedback.

(sorry for the indentation)
The thumbnail directory is on a smb share and mounted as:
Code://server/xbmc/Thumbnails /home/xbmc/.xbmc/userdata/Thumbnails cifs credentials=/home/xbmc/.credentials,_netdev,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
The xbmc user has write permission in the share, not quite sure what's going on as I assume the script runs as the current user (xbmc). There should be no error.
joelones Wrote:EDIT: Actually the problem is a lot worse. The plan was to put all the roms on my share via the same method (using smb) as above with the thumbnails. Having tried one rom on the share and having zsnes bail when trying to play the rom has lead me to believe this is not best solution. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong?I think your problem is related to the manner you try to access your smb server from your system. If the paths you use to access your server are network paths like this :
Has anyone been able to play roms from a share instead of storing all roms local? Specifically via smb? Thanks
