I can see a problem in the progressbar, since it's made using weird characters instead of blocks in my VFD. aprat of that and the prob with the TV series mentioned before the software works with no problem :-)

Which character are wrong in the progress bar?

well the progressbar at 0% looks like :

Code:
[¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]

then the states of the block changes to:

Code:
[►¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]
[◄¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]
[“¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]
[”¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]
[▲¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥]

The last one is not exactly like the char I posted (▲Wink, is a double up arrow with a little triangle on top of another, Makes sense?

Strange it looks like you don't have the same VFD charset as mine.
the good character are [·············] when empty, and the blocks have 4 states

Yep, seem that my Display is using the next charset (I got the picture from imon board):

Yes, it works now. Thanks!
Just a small request: Is it possible that you make 2 alternative patterns to %season% and %episode% which will always display at least 2 diggets (with a leading 0 if necessary)? IMO S01E01 looks mutch better then S1E1.

You can do it already, replace %season% with %season:2% to format on 2 digits, do the same for episode.

Thanks again!
Now it's perfect Big Grin

Using cdenfert's build in production with Dharma-release on VFD - works absolutely great Cool

Have been waiting for somebody to help this usefull and highly appreciated tool to survive for future-releases, and now it's even better and more informative than before. Thanks very much for that Nod

Just didn't know after setting it up that the latest iMON-software was needed, mine went with v7.9..., and so no scrollbar showed up.
Updated to v8.04... and everything's fine.

Again: thank you Montellese and cdenfert!

I added another style for progress bar, try it and tell me (select vertical block)
