Does Media Info Plus support RMVB? It doesn't seem to be doing anything with Alias on my system, and it is in RMVB.

digitalhigh Wrote:Again...this is one of those features that was in the works just before Fekker had to go offline. You can generate thumbnails for TV shows using the tools > create thumbnail feature, but it's not implemented for movies AFAIK. Also, the TV thumbs are dropped directly in the season folder, and not in an extrathumbs location as required by Aeon...Gotcha, I look forward to that functionality - soon as that works it'll be perfect in my eyes

digitalhigh Wrote:Last I heard, MIP does not like RM. I have several old South Park Eps, and they don't show up either. As always, I state the disclaimer that I could be wrong, but to my knowledge this is the case.
The easiest solution I could offer would be to make a dummy folder for the RMVB items, and then create ghost files with filename.avi. This will generate the .nfo files and media images...then drop them into the real folder, and XBMC should be all good.
If you have a lot of files, you could copy all of the RMVB's to another folder, batch rename *.rmvb or *.rm to *.avi, then scan. You won't get codec or audio info properly, but you will still at least have the .nfo's and associated files.
carlpalmer Wrote:Well Duh! I should have realized that. The answer is too easy, that is the problem.
Would it be a big deal to add RMVB support that does not scan the media for encoding information?
