Now THATS a detailed way of showing me what's going wrong! xD
1) I think I found this one, so it may be fixed in the next release.
2) No cancel button was easier to make at the time, it just doesn't leave much room for errors such as random hanging.
I'm trying to make one for the next release, but i think i'm doing it the hard way...
I'm also trying to make sure that it won't just 'hang' there, but stop the action if something goes wrong.
3) I guess the dialog isn't as user friendly as I hoped. ^^
The idea is like the safari or Finder search field, you just press the 'enter' or 'return' key to start a manual search.
4) This has been requested a lot, and i've already done some work on it.
In the next version, it'll read the list from a sort of database, however it'll still download images from the file's location whenever you make a selection.

This isn't compatible with Lion, is it?
I was downloading the app then try to put in some avi into the app without no success, drag and drop result nothing and manually add a folder was useless as well…..
- MariusTh86 - 2011-12-18 10:16
I'm using Lion myself, and it's fully compatible.
The way it works is, you add a 'movies' folder to the app, and in the movies folder you have several movies within folders like so:
Movies
- Movie Title
- - Movie File Name.avi
- Movie Title 2
- - Movie File Name 2.avi
If this is not the case, movies won't show up in the list, but you can use the tools menu, and select the 'sort movies into folders' option which will sort any movie it will find inside the added folder into it's own folder.

Hey there Marius, if I had been using Ember Media Manager in the past, will ViMediaManager be able to read those .nfo files that is scraped by it?
- MariusTh86 - 2011-12-18 12:38
Since both have to follow the XBMC standard, the NFO's are readable by both Ember and ViMM, and most other media managers that write NFO files for XBMC.
- dsync89 - 2011-12-18 13:30
I see. But I'm having IndexOutOfBound problem whenever I tried to read the metadata (via the info button). Then the program will terminate soon after. I wonder what's causing it.

Is there a reason why my clearart and logos show up way to the right of the window? They are all being cut off outside the bounds of the window and some of the smaller ones are not visible at all.
- MariusTh86 - 2011-12-22 01:16
try and send me one of those NFO files that's causing you troubles, and i'll have a look at it.
@Ibbeurmann:
Try removing the preferences in "~/Library/Preferences/ViMediaManager.plist"

OK. I removed it, that did the trick. Thanks!

Finally made the switch from EMM and need to say that I like the clean GUI. Also, it scrapes things in rocket-speed. Thanks for the great work!!!
A few thoughts / request / bugs:
1) Just scraped the movie with IMDB tt1742650. Don't know why, but it shows up as 2012 rather than 2011 and does not have a rating. Works for all other movies, but this one does not work.
2) No movie studio icons and no identification of media flags?
3) Any chance to choose among different posters or fanarts?
4) Feature request: enter youtube URL to download trailer manually; also enter manual URL for posters/fanart
5) Feature request: find duplicate movies
