[DanCooper]

I upgraded yesterday, but the first thing I noticed is that when I scrape movies the button to select all original fanart is missing. This used to put all the fanart as extra into the \extrathumbs folder. Now all I can get it to do is to put really really small thumbnails in the extra art folder, and to do that I must manually click on every single fanart, as there seems too be no way to automate it. Is there anyway to get back the old functionality? At this point I am seriosly regretting not backing up the old version, I would be willing to install an older version if It would give me back this funcanality.

Edit:

Another minor issue I find is before it would tell you the size of fanart on the main screen, now it just says Multiple and you must click on evry single one to find out how big they are, this is very annoying if you only want 1080 fanart. Is there any way to turn off this grouping?

Edit 2: Ok I figured out how to make the extra fanart origanal size. But I still cannot get it to automaticly download them like it used to.

1. The grouping can not be disabled
2. Grouped will be only pictures of TMDB
3. Minimum size of poster on TMDB are always 666px
4. Minimum size of fanarts on TMDB are always 1280px
5. the poster sizes on TMDB are: original >666x?px / medium = 500x?px / cover = 128x?px / small = 92x?px
6. the fanart sizes on TMDB are: original(large) >1280x?px / poster = 780x439px / medium(w1280) = 1280x720px / small(thumb) = 300x169px

The reason for this grouping is that only one image size will be downloaded for preview. It speeds up the manual scraping.

There are two settings for downloading Extrathumbs:
1. Size for automatic scraping


2. Size for manual scraping


If it is set in both the same size all the fanarts on manual scraping are selected.

And FYI: If you use XBMC it does not matter how big are your poster or fanarts. XBMC trims the images to the perfect size for import into the database. It is only necessary to maintain a certain minimum size, so you can always select "Original". For the last extrathumbs even the smallest size (small / thumb), the images are in each skin I know not shown much larger than a postage stamp ;-)


Edit: The following sizes are the same in the two settings:

large = original
medium = w1280
small = thumb
(can not be set) = poster

Hi,

I recently changed my media server, I reinstalled everything on the box. I added my movie folders into EMM.
problem: Although EMM sees all the movies on the left pane, the right pane says: "No Information Available For This Movie"
When I look at my movies with windows explorer (each movie is in an individual folder) I can still see the fanart, poster, nfo files.
my sets are also gone.
Since I spent a enormous time to carefully select the genre, fanart and poster for each movie, I'd like EMM to recover that information.
Is it possible?
I tried to rescrap one movie, but EMM ignores the local files and generated new ones, overwriting my previous info.
I so scared to have lost it all! Can someone help?

I assume that my sets are gone for good.

Please post screenshots of:
- example movie folder
- the settings "Movies -> Data & Sources"
- one ore more NFO's (on pastebin or similar)
