Using LibreElec 9.2 When I noticed a lot of my Music Videos not showing up Using Media Companion V 3.7.4.6 checked on some nfo's and the info was wrong so I rescanned them using all 3 methods Wiki , IMVDb , TheAudioDb 


Folder called Aerosmith - Cryin'

nfo

Glad you got it sorted. Sorry didn't reply earlier.

Hi, thanks for the work you put in to this fantastic software!

I have a few queries... is there a way I can get MC to automatically extract the following information from the file and put it in the file name:
  • HDR
  • 10 bit
  • ATMOS
I am using a Kodi skin that shows these media icons. What I am having to do at the moment is create separate folders on my NAS and separate profiles in MC for each media type and then edit the 'Renaming/naming' tab under 'Movie preferences' for each profile in MC.

I know I can use %A to automatically extract the audio codec information, however it only shows 'Truehd' in the filename and doesn't pick up the ATMOS. I've checked with Mediainfo and it does show ATMOS.

The MC created NFO's do show the '10bit' info here:

<streamdetails>
            <video>
                <NumVideoBits>10</NumVideoBits>
            </video>

Is there a way to get the NFO updated with 'HDR' and 'ATMOS' tags?

Thanks!

Is there a chance of you making a snippet of this file and sending me a link for it so I can get the relevant data into media companion

vbat99,

With the latest version:

ac3 audio is returning ac-3 and some skins don't recognize it

I have dts ex xll for one movie, I also have pcm and PCM, dts x and DTS X

Yea I'm having exactly the same problem. Aeon MQ7 and MQ8 recognise only ac3. I have to edit each nfo to remove the -

Anyway we can change it in settings? I can't seem to find the option?

Also it scrapes 'United Kingdom: 18' or whatever BBFC age rating the movie is but most of the Kodi skins only recognise 'UK: 18'
Can we change that also as its very time consuming having to change all the NFO's or 'include variables' xml in the skin addon.

Thanks

Hi vbat99,

Firstly, thanks again for this awesome program.

So I just updated to version 3.747b from 3.735b. I didn't get notifications to update until today.
I encountered an issue in the movie tab. My posters are not displaying. I can select poster from the side panel and it displays. It just won't for the bigger main slot "No poster is available for this media file".
Poster is just titled poster.jpg (Located in the same folder as movie)

Just wanted an update on the trailer issue? 

I love the program and I know youtube changed something which made having to authenticate yourself necessary.  

Wondering if anyone found a work around or other.

Thanks again.

In Movie Preferences -> Artwork, you can select to use poster.jpg instead of <moviename>-poster.jpg

Selecting the poster option show display the poster in MC again.

With the way Youtube is at present, its going to be hard to next-to-impossible to get trailers from Youtube at present resolutions....if at all in the future.
