Hi Marius,
Congratulations to this new release, looks very nice.
I try to reorganize my mvies here and i am looking for some interoperability between mediaelch and your program, which seems to be in most cases ok, BUT
1) if it comes to BDMV Structures ( haven't tested VIDEO_TS Structures so far ) both programms store meta data in a different directory and use different naming here.
Your programm store the meta data in the STREAM directory, where media elch stores them directly in the BDMV directory using the filenames:
index-fanart.jpg
index.nfo
index.tbn
XBMC seeams to like it, so importing the data isn't a problem at all. In my point of view the BDMV Directory seems to be a more apropiate place to store the information, simply because its not crowded as the STREAM directory. Could you pls take that into consideration and may change it on your side ? :-)
2) Sets
as far as i am aware the sets are stored in the xml with the attribute <set></set> and it took me ages to get all my sets right and they all show up correct in XBMC, but
looking at sets in ViMediamanager none of them show all of the correct member (all sets seams to be present), even if i look at the mkv movies only ( it wouldn't be fair to take bdmv folders into consideration, because the nfo file is in the BDMV root directy :-) )
When it comes to the set manager : is there a specific reason to reload all Movies when you leave the set manager from the disk structure ? this takes ages in some case.
in my personal opinion there is no reason to do that if you havent changed a thing :-)
Current Version:
Additional Downloadoptions in the new version is great, but could you make it configurable to download trailers, etc. by default ?
Thanks for all your work and looking forward to your answer.
