Thanks!!!

1. Buttons to update library are now inside their sections
2. Both library items are working, what is happens for you?
3. Posters should be proxied through maraschino so there is no reason why they'd work inside and not outside your network, try clearing your cache?
   

Fellas, just wanted to keep you guys updated. I've taken the liberty to merge some pull requests today. Unfortunately they are mostly aesthetical or behind the scenes things. Notable new features are the following:

• Maraschino now has a logger. It is in your maraschino's root folder, in a directory called 'logs'. At the moment not much loggin is being done but hopefully we'll get all the actions logged before too long. (Mikie)
• Now it is possible to see the info of movies/episodes from the recently added modules - this is set on the module's settings. (N3MIS15)
• Watched movies/episodes can now be hidden in the library module (N3MIS15)
• Sab Module now has a queue toggling and has the ability to individually pause/resume downloads as well as delete them. Furthermore it will not hide if there are paused item in the queue. ( gugahoi )
  

It's always good practice to delete your cache to see some of the new changes. Let me know if you guys run into any problems.

Thanks for your quick reply. When selecting movie-library, I get the spinning-wheel, but the movie list never comes up. It does work within seconds for tv shows though. The poster thing is not a cache thing and has always been an issue for me (and someone else mentioned the same thing). I believe that it may be caused by reverse-proxies...

In the past I would agree about the images not being displayed because of reverse-proxies but Maraschino recently changed the way it displays those images so I find it unlikely that that is the problem. If you can wait another couple of weeks we should get the logging of that section finished and will be able to give you some better assistance.

Movie Library is working for me so not really sure what might be happening for you. Again might be some cached Javascript files so clearing the cache is always good to make sure your browser has the latest code.

New Weather Module has been added to the repo. Looks quite nice! (by N3MIS15)

i cant take all the credit for Weather.. Dejavu did all the work to make the module look pretty

What is the fastest solution - Option 1 or 2 maybe win7 - same machine as XBMC or on another....

Tested again, cleaned cache and also tried another computer. Unfortunately still without success. Neither for the posters nor for the movie library.

Will wait for the logging feature and hope this brings some light.

Loving these new updates. Much thanks goes to gugahoi for taking the time to merge them all in!

Just one thought / question my non-working posters when outside my home network.

Are the posters pulled over the API? If so, does the API require a user-ID and password?

Let me share some details on my set-up:

Maraschino is "secured" over .htaccess user name and password, which works well.

The reverse proxies then allows that I use paths (for example "/TV" for Sickbeard). Actually, SB also is secured over user-name and password, but those passwords are included in the reverse-proxy set-up. So, I only have to enter the main .htaccess user name and password. I believe that this is the standard way of doing things?

Any indication whether this set-up has anythig to do with the posters not showing outside my home network. Everything else works properly!
