Luckily, i can still hide behind the 'alpha' label. =P
I'll fix those as soon as possible and release another minor update.
Already fixed the manual search window not showing up the very first selected poster/fanart, for now it's not too much of an issue as the selection still works, it just forgets that update the preview images.
What are the fanart & poster names? do they match the movie name? could you show me a screenshot of the movie's folder?
Also, instead of re-fetching, try opening the metadata editor, and then pressing cancel to update the selected movie in the list, or at least it should update the availability of files.
ahaha, that's true, it's not possible to make "the perfect" app, there's always a bug or two around But, it is a really good alpha version man, congrats!
Regarding the fanart and poster names, they're exactly like the movie filename (just like every in ant other movie that I have). Here's the contents of that folder:
Code:
Apocalypse Now-fanart.jpg
Apocalypse Now-trailer.mp4
Apocalypse Now.jpg
Apocalypse Now.mp4
Apocalypse Now.nfo
Apocalypse Now.srt

Thanks for posting the screenshots and being very clear as to your bugs!
I've been working diligently with helping to get the bugs out as well and it's appreciated when users are really clear as to exactly what is going on!

Hey Rob,
I'm more than happy to be helpful. It's thanks to the community that this little app has so much appreciation, including from myself. I'm glad to help in every way I can
Speaking of that, a couple more ideas:
The Sets Manager should have a resizable panel
The movies in the sets are not sorted right. In the previous alpha version there was a spinner to change the movie position, now it's gone. However, it can work like XBMC: sort the movies in each set by the release year. I think that's the best approach.
Ideas for a new layout:
- Include the trailer preview in the movie details area. If there's no trailer for the movie, just place a button in the middle of the panel to download it.
- The small icons available on the list for fanart, poster, subtitles, etc, should be also visible, and bigger, on the movie details panel.
- If there's an item missing on that movie (subtitle, poster, etc), instead of not showing the icon, this should be more transparent.
- For those "transparent" icons, the user can click on it to fetch that particular data. Clicking on Poster downloads the poster, and so on...
- I think it's a cool idea to have a small "refresh rating" from IMDB on that panel. Or not… just an idea.
