RockDawg Wrote:I've ben using MC for a whiole now, but this is the first I tried the new re-written version. It sees my existing nfo's just fine, but it doesn't find newly added movies. Also, under settings/scraper/movie scraper the default movie scarper only lists IMDB but it is not ticked. If I tick it, close the settings window (there's no save or apply button) and come back, it is still not ticked.

That preference is inactive at the moment, other scrapers can be added fairly easily now and once i've added others then I will look at it.

RockDawg Wrote:I am using 3.039. If that preference is inactive, then what will MC use to scrape info?

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Can you give me an example path and filename of a movie that is not scraped.

billyad2000 Wrote:2.135 is obsolete, although some are still using it for tvshows.

Try MC gen2, the latest version is 3.039, it has been completely rewritten and is much better than gen1. Support for TV Shows has not been added yet, but the movie handling works superbly.

Read this whole thread for details, it's not very big.

greybeard Wrote:I have been using 3.039 successfully since probably the day it was released. I also continued to use 2.292 successfully to manage TV shows. Then my computer (3GHz Core 2 duo, 2GB mem, 4.5 TB of disks, Win XP SP2) crashed (off). When it rebooted everything seems to work except MC. I have reinstalled 3.039, and it runs with the default config.xml or no config.xml. If I try to run the old config, it starts to run, brings up the panels, and in the main panel on the left it lists the first film and then hangs. It says "not responding" to windows task manager or to other methods of trying to kill it. It will die after that. If I delete config.xml, add one of the 5 movie folders I have to it, config the scraper to put IMDB first and IPA last, and do a media search, if it is in a dir that has new mpg files it will identify all which are missing .nfo files and hang scraping the first one. I tried moving the first in alpha order out of the dir and now it hangs on trying to scrape 1 of 10 instead of at 1 of 11.

If I del the config file and add a folder that has all the movies matched with .nfo files and try to rebuild the movie list, it lists one movie and hangs.

etc.

I have not tried anything with 2.292. Are there any ideas of what might be happening? I have cygwin and perl installed on this computer so I could perhaps use some shell tools or write a perl script that could investigate the .nfo files.

Arr MiHardies Wrote:also, a question, is there any way to control the order in which XBMC displays records? For example, I want to list movies with multiple "parts" in chronological order in my library view, regardless of their name. A couple good examples would be the Indiana jones movies, or the harry potter movies, non of which include a "part 1", "part 2" etc in their names. I know iTunes accomplishes this with a "sortOrder" metadata field, but I have no idea how to do it in XBMC, if its even possible.

Arr MiHardies Wrote:This isn't really a bug.. though it could be slightly considered such.
Basically, The regex used for identifying a movie based on file name, I think, needs to be expanded a little. I use the following format for my movie file names: "movie name [year] [imdb code].extension" example: "Scary Movie 27 [2052] [tt0023512].mp4" Despite the fact that I include the correct imdb record number in the file name, incorrect lookups still occur. Any way you can add looking for an imdb record number to the regex please.
