Disc stub - bobrap - 2012-01-22

Just stumbled onto this feature. Ronie, does T! support this? I just get yellow cases for any movie added. Thanks.

sure, it's a xbmc feature so will work with any skin.

since it's a stub file, xbmc can't detect the video resolution,
which is needed by T! to determine whether do display a dvd or blu-ray case.

the yellow case is used as a fallback when this info is unavailable.

So for a BD disc do I add the resolution to the file name? Or is there another way? I thought that adding the file as 300.bluray.disc set the res.

add one of these tags to the filename:
  • bluray
  • blu-ray
  • brrip

for dvd's, one can use:
  • dvdrip
  • sddvd

Ronie, sorry to be a bother. I just added this as a file "9.bluray.disc". I still get a yellow case. Is there something so obvious that I am missing?


- ronie - 2012-01-22

heh, my bad.. filename tags don't work for cases.

the only thing T! uses for the cases in videoresolution info.

maybe you could provide the info using .nfo files

Yea, guess I'll just use Ember's offline manager.Sad
