Hello,
I'm currently using Ember 1.3.0.7. I use it for completing different tags that the FilmAffinity scraper in XMBC (actually using the nightly builds of Frodo) doesn't fill or I don't like them (for example, the rating).
I've selected to scrape: Title, Year, Certification (only for Spain), Release Date, Rating/Votes, Tagline, Genres, Country.
I've compared the NFO generated by XBMC exporting library and the NFO after being modified by EmberMM and I've found some differences although they doesn't seem to be a problem.
The only real problem is that EmberMM deletes all XML tags that it doesn't recognize. For example: lastplayed, aired, dateadded, resume, etc.
I've seen that Ember save the thumb URL for posters but it doesn't do the same for fanart like in the XBMC nfo:
The problem with this is basically that you can't swith the fanart from the XBMC interface (using the option "choose art > fanart"). And if you don't do the change in this manner (i.e. you change the fanart from EmberMM) then you'll have problems with the new image/thumbnail cache in Frodo: the old fanart will appear ...
So, how do you manage these things in Ember? Or is there an option to not delete information in the original NFO file?
Thanks.
