New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread)

Hey just had a strange issue with Ember. It was working fine then all of a sudden cracked it. Now when I open the software I keep getting the same issue.

I even tried creating a new install of it but there is some sort of database issue.

is this an error with SQLite?

The second link is invalid.

Sounds like a faulty database (Media.emm).
Just try a clean install of Ember (not just overwrite the old files).
Use the version 1.3.0.5 Fix5

Hi there,

I wonder if there's the possibility to separate data and settings in one of the Ember's future versions?

As far as I experienced some settings are currently stored in the .emm file and if you need to delete it (see previous post) then you have to re-configure Ember.

Why you dont edit the trailer to the proper name?

There's a few hundred files....

But, when you populate the check mark for trailer found, why don't you just look for any file with trailer in it, instead of looking for [moviefilename]-trailer.
This should not break any consistency... MediaCenterMaster have no problem finding the trailer in the above mentioned cases.

When you have stacked files, it makes more sense to name the trailer [Movie]-trailer instead of [movie].part1-trailer.

Just my 2 cents..

No, "Media.emm" is the movie and tvshows database (all scraped data). All settings are saved in Settings.xml and AdvancedSettings.xml.

Ok, I can understand.

The problem is this:
Ember shortens the file names from" Avatar.part1.avi" to "Avatar." and search "Avatar.-trailer.avi", not "Avatar-trailer.avi".
I think that can be repaired. I will contact you again.

Example:

Movie.part1.mkv
Movie.part2.mkv
Movie.partx.mkv etc...
Movie-trailer.mov

XBMC will detect and play trailer just fine, but ember will not see the trailer.

If you name it:
Movie.part1-trailer.mov

Ember will detect it.
Would it be possible to get a fix, so that ember will also see the first naming convention?

Try this my friend and report problems:
EmberAPI (deleted)

This is only a test, not the final solution!

Hepp, it worked like a charm, Thanx a bunch!

Quote:Bug 1: change "AvatarPart1.avi" to "Avata" (without "r") in search string

Is this something you fixed? Or something you want me to try?



Now I only have to find out why ember won't extract thumbs from 90% of the mkv's I've made with makemkv....
