Found a big bug!

Was watching the task manager memory consumption tab. Media elch was fetching 2 movie's meta data, 50 something has been done in the last 2 days.

And then I started to click one by one on all the accomplished movies. guess what, the memory consumption started to rise gradually. 1 movie click and 30 mb raised, another - there goes another 25.
Tried to reproduce it, and it worked again. Finally after 926 mb, it crashed.

Seems like it is caching the movie posters and fan art, but us unable to unload them somehow.

I'm aware of this. Was more a feature than a bug But I see that caching the images was not a good idea at all

Might want to check out mediainfo to get codec and other audio/video info. Would be a nice addition along with the other things on your to-do list.

http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
-Graphical user interface, command line interface, or library (.dll/.so/.dylib) versions available

I know mediainfo but I don't need this features. Maybe I'll add it later.

HI there

@ Aries, thanks i've done that in some movies that i found. i just mentioned it to highlight a problem within the application. Right now its quite "problematik" to review all movies ( >2000) to see if there is an empty genre entry :-), looking forward to the new filter function to review my movie genres :-)

Another small observation when it comes to movies and poster/fanart:
First let me state the configuration :
Mediaelch , set to XML and the oberservation seems to be valid for BDMV structures ONLY.
XMBC Version ( Frodo Nighties from september )
index.nfo seems to be found and recognized.
Index.tbn and index-fanart.jpg seems to be ignored ( doesn't show up in this xbmc version, dont know if this is version specific, but even a refresh didn't get the pictures )
tried to add index.jpg and also in the movieroot dir <moviename>.jpg, No luck so far.

It might be xbmc version related, but just to let you know.
Best regards
Linus

What do you expect when setting the genre name to an empty one? There is a remove genre functionality, use it.
And no support for Frodo now.
