Hi folks,
I have some problems the way I want to present my library, more specifically for my offline dvd/blurays
Let's say I try to add my matrix bluray.
So I created a text file on my NAS location.
The Matrix (1999).txt
Renamed it to --> The Matrix (1999).disc
Scanned it with XBMC and it was recognized as valid file
Than I renamed it to --> The Matrix (1999).BLURAY.disc
Re-scanned
Result: mediaflag added to the file
Now the two problems that I have:
1) BD/DVD case not showing
I cannot get the bluray case showing
Tried it with dvd and played a dvd so xbmc could get the mediastream info, but it did not work
I tried changing *.disc extension to *.blu or *.dvd (as stated on the wiki this is supposed to be a supported and default extension)
Result: file is not recognized
Tried changing to *BLURARY.blu.disc
Result: file recognized of course but no change
On the forums somebody had a similar (problem with BD/DVD case) problem, but it was with an *.iso file
No solution...
Do I need the create a advancedsettings.xml and add .blu, .dvd to the discstubextension?
Or will this only solve the file recognition of the *.blu and *.dvd (which is supposed to be standard)?
2) Customized message
So I cannot figure out how to get a customized message
According to the wiki I need to threat the *.disc file as an xml
So I tried the following:
Create the matrix (1999).txt
Edit with the following message
<discstub>
<message>Insert Matrix Bluray with number 007</message>
</discstub>
Changed file extension to *.disc
File is recongized when scraping
When playing the file, it asks me to insert Matrix Disc but not the customized message
So I tried changing the name to *.xml
But than of course the file is not recognized anylonger
Can someone explain me in an idiot proof matter how to use the "media stubs" please, because this is really getting on my nerves
Already a big thanks for your help
Ps
for the one asking which system
tried it on my atv2, mac mini, windows 7 with same results
