Any plans for more automation or command line options that can be integrated into things like TVShows2, Automator, SickBeard, or Couchpotato?
I'm not thinking about any command line options since it's really a GUI app, but if you have any ideas of how to integrate ViMM with other tools, feel free to let me know or in what way!

Though there have been some problems searching localized names with 'foreign' characters.
There's a donate button in the shape of a heart on the toolbar if you like to support the project.
Wow! great! I'll try it today and share my experience here. The way it was in EMM: i typed english (international) name for series, like, "dexter" and it showed me all results, like Dexter (english), Dexter (german), etc... ok, anyway.. will try it at home and will revert.

I believe it will show up as just "Dexter" as name, but the description will be in german or whichever language you have set, and will download all information in the set language if it's available.
And thanks for the donation! <3

I hope everybody is ready for lucky beta Nr. 13!
Please extensively test adding images through the metadata editor by dropping images onto the image field, and by opening images with the 'open' button, and see if they are moved to the right location and with the correct naming.
If the new toolbar item "Fetch All Metadata" isn't showing in the toolbar, you can right-click on the toolbar to edit it and add it manually.
v0.5b13 - 22/09/2011
---------------------
* [New] Check to see if previous art already exists and asks to delete it before proceeding to scrape data.
* [New] Added a sort list button on the mini toolbar below the list, which will re-sort the list without reloading it.
* [New] Added new toolbar item "Fetch All Metadata", this will fetch metadata for all media in the currently displayed list that doesn't have any metadata yet.
* [New] Added 'Open' image button to the metadata editors to allow users to select images from their harddrives for use as poster, fanart, banner and extra images.
* [Fix] Forgot to check weather or not a poster or fanart URL is available when downloading those for movies.

Dear Vidal,
I'm sorry, but I experience problems with folder source. I'm adding tv or movie folder via browse window that is located on my time capsule disk, so location bar says: "Data:Series:" (my actual path is //timecapsule/Data/Series) and I got an error: Could not find TV show folder: Series.. please check...blah-blah-blah...
what am I doing wrong? yesterday it was working fine. And one more thing. I can't locate file com.vidalvanbergen.vimediamanager.xml in my hdd/library/preferences.
- MariusTh86 - 2011-09-22 20:23
The preferences would be in HDD/users/yourname/library/preferences.
Maybe you can try reconnecting the disk before restarting ViMM, and make sure it's accessible from the finder, and possibly re-add it.

Nice update. Thanks.

I'm eager to give this a go. Just want to know though, is it stable enough to use on a live library? Or would you suggest I just play with a temp libary for now?

I've been using it on my live library & the only adverse effect I've had is an occasional "Search All *.jpg, *.nfo etc" action so I can delete the images and nfo files and start over again. Or an occasional incorrect identification which can be fixed with a manual search.
ViMM hasn't had any bad effects on my files and I don't think it actually does anything to your videos (aside from scan them) anyway.

@Marius
I have just been playing with images and found that after ViMM had downloaded a series of images if I went into XBMC and used the "TV Logo Script" in the context menu there were multiples of certain images in some folders. In each case there was a capitalisation difference. eg: Poster.jpg & poster.jpg sat happily together in the same folder and were different pictures.
It's late here so I haven't yet followed this further to see if it caused any conflict/issues in XBMC. Maybe someone else could test it out further?
