[MAC] Frodo: How do I get the movie scraper to generate resolution information
#1
I am using the May monthly Frodo Alpha 2 release. When I go to scrape my vidoe library I don't see and resolution information about the movie being generated:

Code:
<fileinfo>
            <streamdetails>
                <video>
                    <codec>mpeg2video</codec>
                    <aspect>1.777083</aspect>
                    <width>720</width>
                    <height>480</height>
                    <durationinseconds>6032</durationinseconds>
                </video>

What do I need to do to get the resolution infomation to be automatically generated?

By the way, I see the end result of the scraping genertaing the default information:

Code:
.
        <lastplayed>1969-12-31</lastplayed>
        <premiered>1969-12-31</premiered>
        <aired>1969-12-31</aired>

It's generated in the background info loaders that run as you view the lists.

I have been experimenting with this more and it seems to only generate the resolution information on the video entry that I am playing. The act of just viewing the lists does not seem to do the trick.

Any of my videos. For instance, Batman: Gotham Knight before I started playing the movie:

And here is what it looked like after I played it for a minute or two:

Here is the Debug log.

It's a dvd rip (i.e. VIDEO_TS folder?) They're a special case, as we can get accurate information only during playback.

Everything else other than dvds can be grabbed in the background.

I am experiencing an issue where one of the played ripped DVDs does not seem to generate any resolution information. I know this because when I go to export the video library to a single file, there is no <fileinfo> generated for the video entry.

Debug Log.
