Ayla Wrote:Fekker;

I tried reading the wiki, but I still don't quite get the difference between Auto Pilot and PreCache?

I noticed that PreCache respects the settings I have set up in the MIP settings, so I can get TMDB posters for example. That is very nice and what I want, but PreCache is much worse at guessing the correct moviename on IMDB:

With Auto Pilot I was asked to pick my movie from the "there are more movies with the same name" dialog, about 10 times (out of 200 movies).

With PreCache it asks me to pick from a list on more than half of the movies(!) - It takes forever to do a full scan like that and makes it unusable for large collections.

I would really like to do an auto scan of my whole movie collection, but with the best poster quality (TMDB) and without having to pick the movie name from a list more than half of the times.

Any ideas?

And thanks again for a great program and very fast support in this thread

Quote:1. Multi part files (ie movie part1.mkv, movie part2.mkv) are not stacked in MIP and so appear as 2 movies is there any way to avoid this?

Quote:2. When trying to add movies I go to load mvies then whether I try to precache or autopilot the app seems to ignore current nfo files. This is causing it download masses of duplicate/unneeded data but also it keeps prompting me for duplicate movies even though the imdb title is in the present nfo. Is there any way to get it to just scan present info first.

Quote:and all files are name in format "title (year) partx.mkv"

Quote:3. When I run autopilot it seems to keep my modified titles which is the most important part of my nfo's which is great but it overwrites the playcount tag so I lose the ability to track watched movies from my nfo's.

4. or possibly 3b, in mediacompanion there is a watched/unwatched button which is a great feature to which I can find no equivilant in MIP2 is there anything similar in this app.

Quote:5. I get the feeling most of my issues stem from the fact I use root rather than individual folders. Is this likely the case and if so is there any automated way to get my movies seperated down into folders?

Quote:I've tried to find answers in this thread and the wiki but so far no luck, apologies if these have been covered previously but if anyone can assist I'd greatly appreciate it.

Kilack Wrote:Hi,

Am I doing something wrong? recently it seems MIP has stopped getting episode thumbs. I check on thetvdb.com and they are definitely there but mip seems to just get the folder.jpg, the .nfo for each episode but no episode.tbn files..

I just load mip and then click load tv, I also notice that each time it downloads about 3,000 files during the precache stage, if i reboot my pc and do this 5 minutes later it downloads them all again, is that how it is meant to work?

This is using 1.0.0.2448 and also tried 2801, "download tv episode thumbs" is ticked.
(startrek - voyager, season 1 is an example, where it got all the correct .nfo files but not a single thumb for any episode..)

cheeeers

thx

In the above screen you'll see on the left several of the movies appear twice although it appears to have correctlly stripped the part info off the filename.

Whenever it encounters these it brings up the dialogue dupklicate titles found, in this example I've used star wars clone wars , dunno why?, which has the following files in the folder.

Star Wars - Clone Wars part1.avi
Star Wars - Clone Wars part2.avi
Star Wars - Clone Wars part1.nfo
Star Wars - Clone Wars.tbn
Star Wars - Clone Wars-fanart.jpg

The NFO contains following...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I've taken out plot and actors for ease of viewing but otherwise exact. The imdb details are contained and in individual files all seems to scan correctly when read.

fekker Wrote:i'm working on adding that one to mip so you can hit a button a get the data from them.. (initially) and later it will hopefully work just like it does not for imdb in english.

some parts i have to guess though as I don't know any german and have no idea what is labeled what

I'll need help with that one for sure when it comes to checking for bugs and stuff going to the wrong field.

pletopia Wrote:hey fekker, i'm trying to get MIP working so i can take better advantage of Stark's flags

i installed a clean copy of 2801 today and replaced the exe with the 2831 build

i loaded up MIP, pointed it to my movies dir and set some settings that are appropriate for my setup (write movie.nfo, enable Support Skin Based Flagging)

when i load up a movies and then double click on one, it runs for a bit and then i get an exception error

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

The application must also be compiled with debugging

any ideas ??
