New Home for Ember Media Manager (Official Thread)

shaktoo Wrote:yes could you please clarify as asked by livin as well is this EMM or EMM-r?
In any case kudos to you and straight away a few requests=== ( will put on tracker as well)
1- Auto Update Library on addition of any new files
2- Auto scrape ( as per predefined parameters)
3- notify ( if seleceted e.g xbmc)
4- download extrathumbs AND extrafanart

Sounds like some good suggestions. I'll look out for them on the tracker, I have a few kinks to work out with my releases first, but then once I've gotten the kinks worked out I'll get to adding new features.

I updated from 1.2 earlier, now I'm getting errors

I've taken it upon myself to not only pick up the code where it was left off and attempt to continue development of it, but I've also create a new site for Ember so that it can be supported easily with forums, a wiki, bug and project tracking. Right now there isn't much to look at, but the source is there and available also on github. I plan to work on a release in the next few days.

Goals
To continue development of EmberMM, because its a great product, that in my opinion is the most stable and useful media manager available, I've tried all others, but yet still come back to Ember.

To provide a site where users can post questions, provide feedback, and in the long run provide an area where users can go for howto's, wiki forums etc.

Links
Main Website : http://ember.purplepig.net
GitHub : https://github.com/bodrick/Ember-MM

Current Release : 1.3 available at project site

Great news! I look forward to seeing this great project gain some additional TLC

Both links to download are giving me files not found errors.

Seems like the host was having some memory troubles, restarting the app fixed the problem for now, I might have to find a different solution for hosting the project, but hopefully I can figure out a way to improve performance etc.

Good news, I think I tweaked the site so that now its not utilizing mongrel but apache and FCGI, so hopefully that should make things a bit more reliable.

I had neglected to include a library with the downloads I had put up, this has been rectified so try and download a new version and try again. I'm working on some issues with the scrapers right now and improving the way they work.

Trying to start the application results in the following error:

The type initializer for 'EmberAPI.Master' threw an exception.

Works fine in Win7 x64 though.

I'm thrilled that development on this has started up again! Like many around here, I'm sick of hopping from one scraper to the next to find the right fit. Ember already does so much and has potential for so much more now that you've taken the reins!

So thanks!

damn finally!!! somebody takes this dusty piece of software and continues dev to make it THE nr.1 media manager , i use it for all my scraping needs

hope the scrapers get a real overhaul since most of my alternate titled asian movies get picked up by imdb internal xbmc scraper but not with ember native / rogue scraper -.-'

maybe even later down the road add a adult movie category like tv shows have theyre own category ,and perhaps even for anime too ,for anime i recommend to use anidb scraper

and for adult movies well theres a few i recon xD...just a couple of ideas to get it all goin, peace
