mythicalLibrarian - a tool to build Movie and TV Show library from MythTV recordings
I'm getting further. I can't tell if this is success or not

I've been making some serious progress today. For those of you who used the command
Code:
port install agrep
please run
Code:
port uninstall agrep
port install tre
There are ALOT of problems (mostly uncritical errors) still left to work out for Darwin's installer. But, mythicalLibrarian should rename as is in the SVN and the installer is working. I'm still working on mythtv database interface. I do not have mythtv installed yet.



Does the command mysql work for anyone who has mythtv in the terminal?
Use mythicalLibrarian to make a library out of your MythTV files. Leave the recording to MythTV and use XBMC as your library.

as of build 444 mythicalLibrarian is operational on OSX to mythSExx standards.

For those of you who don't know, mythSExx was the predecessor to mythicalLibrarian and BashSExx was the predecessor to it. It was not designed with the mythTV database in mind, nor did it have many of the features which make mythicalLibrarian such a great program. As of now, I am stopping all development on the mythSExx project as mythicalLibrarian takes enough time on it's own.

Build 444 was sucessfully able to rename a file on OSX given the filename, title, and subtitle of the show. It was built from the easy installer as well.
I would say that this is a major success. I am going to install mythtv on my mac now and see if it can integrate with the database. This may pose some problems which should be able to be worked around.

Most of the problems I'm coming across is related to BASH being an older version in OS X then it is on Linux. So I'm having to rewrite commands here and there in an older format so that they work properly.

Please, I am new to mac so any input is appreciated. Please test out mythicalLibrarian using the SVN.

Here is my output.log from this last test.

I expected the notifications and XBMC to fail (said no to both during install- i use PLEX)
I'm surprised about the filesystem issue, i ran under sudo su

other note -
under osx the home directory is /Users/username instead of /home/username

Alternate dirs holding it up?

Give me a few and I'll code up some alternate dir selections. I use original dir.

I'm working on it now, and about to test, however, if you edit /usr/local/bin and change the lines which say AlternateShowDir=, AlternateMoveDir= and AlternateMovieDir= you will be in business. That's the old-skool way of doing it. mythicalSetup is the easy way.

Just added another method for you to use.

Global Settings for mythicalLibrarian have been implemented.

Code:
echo "AlternateMoveDir=~/episodes">/etc/mythicalLibrarian/globalSettings
echo "AlternateShowDir=~/Showings">etc/mythicalLibrarian/globalSettings
echo "AlternateMovieDir=~/Movies"/etc/mythicalLibrarian/globalSettings
you may have to mkdir /etc and mkdir /etc/mythicalLibrarian

Global Settings will override any mythicalLibrarian setting.

Code:

Got it version 444 working from the command line.

I gave up on the setup script - the filesystem test was failing because of running the script under sudo su
running the diagnostics under sudo, it worked as expected

i also had to add mysql's path to /etc/profile
Code:
PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin"

Now that it's working ... how do i change it? Big Grin
specifically for movies, i don't want directory/movie title/movie title(year).mpg i'd rather have directory/movie title (year).mpg

Was that just because i ran it from the command line?

I haven't seen the output from a live recoding from MythTV yet.

I haven't gotten the RSS fixed yet, but i'm using mythweb's rss feed for now.

I just started using mythicalLibrarian and ran into an issue when working with recordings in one particular folder in my MythTV storage group.

Excerpt from the output.log

Code:
MOVING FILE: '/home/shared/media/MythTV.Storage/1065_20100423073000.mp4' to '/home/shared/media/Episodes/Mickey Mouse Clubhouse/Season 1/Mickey Mouse Clubhouse S01E16 (Plutos Puppy-sitting Adventure).Storage/1065_20100423073000.mp4'

PERMISSION ERROR WHILE MOVING

It took me a while to figure out why this was failing, turns out that it didn't like the "." in the folder name. I changed MythTV.Storage to MythTV_Storage and the error went away.

^^ Very interesting. Can you post the entire output.log please? I would really like to see it. A period in the name should not effect normal operations. mythicalLibrarian should be looking for the last period in the name, not the first.

Rss feeds are currently located at /var/www/mythical-rss mythicalLibrarian checks for that folder. If you create that folder, it will start creating RSS feeds.

content is shared from
/Library/WebServer
apache is configured in

how do i change the naming convention on the files, by type?
Reply
I keep the naming convention fixed for simplicity. I'm not troubleshooting people's naming conventions. If you want to go in and manually edit the code, you can find the section called categoricNamingConventions () and traditionalNamingConventions () and you can make your changes there. You can find the variables you have to work with at the bottom of the user settings/user jobs section. This is unsupported and will be reverted on the next update to it's defaults.

I think i found a setting that might do what I want. If i understand the setting
UseShowNameAsDir=Enabled

Setting it to disabled ought to flatten the output structure - which will work for me.

You can set that perminantly by using the command

echo "UseShowNameAsDir=Enabled">/etc/mythicalLibrarian/globalSettings
