New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread)

What will Ember do with info it does not know about - what I am specifically asking about is the Manage Movie Sets feature of XWMM. If I setup all my movie sets, and the next time ember goes thru the collection updating, will it leave the info it knows nothing about alone or wipe it out?

Thanks

This may be a dumb question and I'm sure I'm just missing something, but how do I update a show when I add a new avi episode to the seasons folder (to scrape new nfo's etc)? I've tried the reload option and rescraping, and can't find anything in the menu options, so do I have to remove the show from the library and re-add he whole thing, or how do I do it?

XWMM edits the XBMC db and not the .nfo files I think.

Update Library button?

Ha, thanks. I knew it was something easy like that.

Hi,
I just discovered the new incarnation of Ember. I’m happy to find Ember alive again, but I think I’m missing something. So, here my newbie question:

In the old days (pre dharma) I could instruct xbmc to construct the library from the material scrapped with ember and contained in each movie folder. Since dharma I could not do it anymore.

I would like to have the ember scrapped material in each media folder, and at the same time to have de xbmc library constructed with the data scrapped with ember (contructed by ember would be ideal), but I can’t find how. I can’t find the link between ember and the xbmc library.

I need an entry point for newbies. Is there any tutorial about this subject?

Thanks,
Diego

I have Ember set to automatically download "all fanart as extrathumbs (large)" in "Scrapers - Images & Trailers".
When manually scraping it does this BUT doesn't download the image I select as fanart.
When automatically scraping, it download all images AND automatically selects an image as fanart.

I have fix that problem in Fix 6.

Changelog:
- changes in movie stacking (better finding of local trailers)
- fix the fanart problems if extrathumbs option activated

Check my signature for download links.

Please report bugs and troubles with this new version.

I understand your question completely (or your English).

This is exactly the setting that XBMC uses for the export of its own database:

For movies:
<movie>.tbn
<movie>-fanart.jpg
<movie>.nfo
<movie>-trailer.avi

For tv-shows:
folder.jpg
poster.jpg
tvshow.nfo
seasonXX.tbn
season-all.tbn
season-specials.tbn
<episode>.tbn

Does Bulk Renamer work for TV shows? Every time i tried it says "this feature is not available yet".

Is there any plan for this?
