So I don't think it's got anything to do with the version. What you could try is to reduce the amount of items being scraped in one batch. It reduced the workload and might have an impact on the stability.
Thanks for the response... that gave me an idea to try. I seem to have no problem scraping my 1000+ flick library for NFO only... it's when I try to scrape ALL that I run into problems. I'll continue to scrap the library for one piece at a time and see if I can identify which particular media element is giving me fits. Thanks again!

Question/Suggestion:
Would Ember be able to interface with XBMC video database like xwmm? Maybe Ember's xbmc controller (which does connect for me) can be updated when this does https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/608.
the 'Problem':
I update movie fanart, poster, and imdb ratings in ember and the changes don't propogate to xbmc unless I manually refresh the movie or remove/add the source. It's not really a problem I suppose, just an area where Ember might be able to stand out.

Say that I have updated my TVShows with some random episodes, how do I updated them in Ember? I dont remember the episodes and I cant got step by step to check every TV show, there is alot of them and most of them have alot os seassions.
So how do I run a update, it should be easy becouse the shows is already known.
I do however need to kow if any of the episodes is not updated. If thay is not updated and I run XBMC, XBMC will downlowd som information itself and this we can´t have.

For me it works as follows:
After adding a new TV show to my source folder (one episode is sufficient) I update Ember's TV show database. The new show is added without details, I select the show and press Ctrl+I to scrape it.
Ember gets the info from TheTVDB, season pictures and fanart. I believe it also creates an NFO where some TVDB ID and/or path is stored. Up to here it's obvious, I think.
If I now add new episodes to the show I only update Ember's database. Nothing else. Ember recognizes the new episodes and immediately fetches plot, title and episode picture for this known show. Basically you are done and could start XBMC to add your new media there. Works great. Only manual interaction with Ember: adding new season poster/fanart if you start a new season.
This works completely independent of what episodes in which order you add.

hi all.
I'm very confused with the trailers with XBMC/Ember.
OK, so if I import anything from within XBMC itself (that has trailers of course), the trailer plays fine in the window
Using Ember 1.3.0.2
1. mostly default settings (and before I had noticed all the seperate options for downloading trailers etc, so all unticked).........If I then add those files to XBMC and let it import.....it prompts that a trailer is available....but refuses to play them. If I was to then refresh info within XBMC, ignoring the nfo file, the trailer will now stream fine.
2. enabling the options for trailers (but not opting to download them), it fills in trailer info.......mostly http://www.youtube.com links....and a few rtmp://amazonimdb.fcod.llnwd.net (seems it takes the youtube one as a preference).......the rtmp ones stream fine, but the youtube links will not play in XBMC no matter what I try.
I then read a few pages back that one of the youtube options was broken in that version....so went to the experiment 1.3.0.3 version.
1. With trailer options set (no download), again, it mainly picks youtube addresses, followed by rtmp when available.....and again, XBMC will not play these youtube links but rtmp fine.
2. Tried to set it to download the trailers.......now they download fine on the pc, no surprise there.....but as I have to view in File Mode (due to swapping between various external drives for my content), it then means duplicate files showing......also, when XBMC says Press to view the trailer, it still doesnt play, like its looking for the web youtube trailer still, even though its sat on the hdd next to it.
3. Now with default settings, ie all trailer options disabled....it still fills in the RTMP links where available (overwriting the youtube links if they were previously stored), does not add in any youtube links, but they all still play fine. So this method works, kinda.....but seems a bit kind of backwards to the options (and not as ideal with having less streaming options as more are unavailable)
So am I doing something wrong, or is this not quite sorted properly yet? With default settings I'd have originally expected XBMC to not even prompt that a trailer is available, using current Eden beta 1 with Aeon skin.....but makes sense I guess that if the trailer web address is filled on the main import scrape, that it would show up.
So in a nutshell RTMP links are fine, is there any way that these youtube links are usable in XBMC?

Question:
When scrapping media information for my movie files EMM creates a ".info" file and it contains the IMDB address for the movie. Is this the standard structure that XBMCs' Library uses? I was always under the impression that it read the ".nfo" file and it would find the imdb address so that way it would add the correct movie to the database. I have a pretty big movie library of about 600-700 movies and I have all the files in one folder with the names:
"Moneyball (2011).nfo" (contains the IMDB http address)
"Moneyball (2011).tbn" (The movie poster)
This is how I have been setting everything up for years. Anyways I was mainly curious about the ".info" file and if it was necessary or what that was about. Ive tried searching and haven't came up with very conclusive results. Just wondering if anybody could shed some light on this for me
. Thank you!-haryy

1. trying to decide if i should use MCM or EMber,
EMber has a nice interface and collects more info.
but MCM has as a big plus it scans my movies folder automatic.
beeing that i want my HTPC automated.
is there a option in Ember that it would scan the sources for new files and then does a scan and updates XBMC ?
2. another issue i was running in to.
all my files are stored in movie name (year)
but it seems Ember ignores it because it changed the movie info to a movie from 1955.
3. any update if Ember will fix the blu-ray structure bug by storing the scraped info in the faulty location ?
