Just to remind you hentai23, that Advanced Launcher is not for management stuff it is just an application launcher. I do not understand why you said it "sux" because it does not do well things it is not supposed to do. Eek Eek

To be honest, I don't know how many time it will take me to make it.

well tbh ive found a inbetween solution

listen to me angel and just add one new option to adv



http://comicrack.cyolito.com/forum/13-scripts/3052-extract-only-1st-page-in-archive-cover-page

ive already tried it does what it sez perfect same filenames only difference is .tbn instead of the archive extension xD ,

it will autoextract the first image aka the cover of the archives you selected to the directory the archives are contained in, so if you could add an option to auto scan that folder or add a default .tbn folder for thumbs and fanart selection option for launcher items to scrape from locally instead of online, itd solve the thumbs and fanart problem atleast till you get the complete addon up and running

Question: I am about to build a new box (HTPC) and going to move my XBMC over to it. Is there a way to copy over all the work i have done in advance launcher? All comics art, info files, etc .... ?

Hi -

Anyone know how this can be done?

Depend how different will be your new HTPC system from the older one.

If all the paths to comics, thumbs and fanart images on your new HTPC are EXACTLY the same than for the ones on you older system, all you have to do is to make a backup of your actual launchers.xml file into your XBMC userdata directory and replace the one into your new HTPC system.

If paths are different, you have 2 solutions :
  • Edit your launchers.xml path and use a text editor that have automatic replace feature, and replace your old system paths by your new HTPC system path.
  • Make a backup for each launchers of all your comics into NFO files (using "Export items data to .nfo files" option). Make sure that all you thumbs and fanarts images have the same name than your comics files. Then copy all your files (comics, nfo, thumbs and images) into your new HTPC system. Then recreate launchers and do scans with all scrapers deactivated (will normally automatically import thumbs and fanart) and then use the "Import items data from .nfo files" optino to quickly import all the comics information.
