Hi Slash, I have a request: not sure how you're handling search requests, I'm guessing jquery/ajax (sorry for not checking in advance, but the spirit of my request won't be affected either way...), but could you implement a delay to search requests? Currently, XWMM tries to search immediately after I start typing a letter, which ultimately slows down search results for me. I have more than 2,500 HD movies, 3,000 TV shows etc. on a 30 terabyte network. So I might be on the extreme side, but I think this enhancement would benefit users in general.
Maybe by setting a timer on the keyup event or something...? I *think* it would look something like this:
-------
$('#search_keywords').keyup(function() {
clearTimeout($.data(this, 'timer'));
$(this).data('timer', setTimeout($.proxy(search, this), 500));
});
function search() {
if (this.value.length >= 2 || this.value == '') {
$('#loader').show();
$('#jobs').load(
$(this).parents('form').attr('action'),
{ query: this.value + '*' },
function() { $('#loader').hide(); }
);
}
}
--------
This effectively breaks your search into another function, and just delays 500ms between hitting a key and firing the search function. If you type another letter, the 500ms timer resets with the clearInterval(), so quick typing won't trigger 20 events, only once you pause a half second will it fire. You could even make it 600 or 700 ms if you want. The $.proxy() part is so that this is correct when the setTimeout() executes.
Last, I also wanted to say that XWMM is fantastic! I've wanted something like this since the early days of XBMC when I had to hard hack my xbox to install the software. Great work. Please continue!

Are the actor images supposed to be displayed 1.9.3? All mine seem to be blank. I was looking for a way to add in missing actor thumbs by entering a url or path but don't see that feature enabled yet. Is it something we'll see in the near future? What I see so far is great and I'm glad we have a cross-platform solution.

Chrome Dev 10 on Linux shows a blank screen. Works fine in FF 3.6.

HI
I have recently started using XVMM and I find the concept great.
I started by using it to create movie set's. while Im able to create the set I can't mange to add the the sort title, nor am i able to do any input or editing of data. no add trailer URLs, or edit anything. this is true also in the music and the TV section.
what did I miss??
I use win7 on asrock ION 330HT, I have tried FF/explorer/chrome
thanks for the help
