Hi,

It's just a read-from-nfo the ttID for every file, i have a large library and pch is ignoring my nfo files. So i wanted to make a workaround but i don't want you to lose your time Smile.
So if sourcecode isn't aviable it's just np.
thanks (and think about open source Big Grin)

Hi celyr,

What features were you thinking of? I can have a look at adding them.

Please be aware that the C200 firmware will soon be converted to using the NMJv2 database format. After that this application will no longer work. There is a new version of NMJED to work with the NMJv2 database after the upgrade: NMJED3

Hi all,

Just uploaded 2.0.1.4 to fix a few bugs and add some new features.

Fixed bug causing Video thumbs to be set to default image when populating from TVDb/TMDb
Fixed bug causing individual albums to be created for file names having extended characters
Fixed bug using imbedded names with illegal characters as file names.

Added Reconcile Database to the tools menu to help identify and correct media file name and path. This is especially useful if you are re-arranging your media folders, you can select a group of movies etc and assign them to the new path.

The solution you are looking for is obviously the optimal solution for syncing.

Can you have a sql command prompt? I would be happy with using an sql statement like :

UPDATE table_name
SET file_path=value
WHERE file_path=some_value

Or just being able to select the season title in the gui and have the ability to change the part of the file path i want changed like moives\a to tv\a and have that change for all episodes.

Hi stlouey,

A number of people have asked for something like this and I've considered it my self a number of times but haven't done anything because there are so many possible scenarios (e.g. if you renamed a file I'd have no way of knowing which file that was in the database).

What I am thinking of now is a consistency check which will scan through the files in the database and provide a list of any that don't match a real file. Then provide a number of options as to how to fix them, e.g. selecting multiple files and providing a new path to them etc.

I'll have a look and see what can be done. Any suggestions on alternate ways to approach this are always appreciated.

Hi ufitzit,

Thanks for your time creating a great product.

I have changed the file structure of my TV series at the source and was wondering is there any way to create a way to bulk update the file path? At this stage i have to open a TV series and modify the path individually as there is no way to multi select or edit the path from the folder level.

Thanks

Kinda Hard scrolling the long list looking for the TV series. Smile

Hi melon,

Thanks Big Grin. I've added the ability to filter on TV shows or movies etc into NMJED3 for the NMJv2 database, and I'm hoping that they upgrade the 200 series to use the NMJv2 database so that I dont have to support 2 apps. But as I have no idea when, or even if, this will happen I'll have a look at adding filtering into this app.

hehe, I don't ask for donations, Im a full time employed IT professional who has a passion for writing code and a Popcorn hour, but thanks for the thought

P.S. Looks like my web site is down at the moment for anyone trying to download. It should be back up shortly.

Hi all,

Just uploaded 2.0.1.3 to include TMDb and TVDb look up and population of information and images.

To find a Movie or TV show, Edit the Show on the Format tab next to the TTID entry is a [Image: FIND.ico](Find) icon. Click to search for the TV show in TVDb or the Movie in TMDb.

Once a show has been found and/or the TTID entry has a valid IMDb value in it the right-click context menu on the Image tab will allow the selection of a image from the TMDb/TVDb online store.
Posted by melon - 08-12-2011 03:02 AM
Ow. i see.. thanks for the reply! Big Grin
I also tried other apps, but so far this app is the most efficient way for me.
Atleast I now know that manual input is the only way to go for me as of now. :/

As a possibility of improvement, it would be nice to differentiate the movies from the TV shows.
I know that in the DB there are tables for the VIDEO and for the SHOW but for the end user this should be transparent. for the movies showing the entries of the VIDEO and the SHOW table is just redundant.
So some filters could be implemented to show either the movies or the TV shows. because so I cannot see which movies is identified erroneously by the MNJ as TV show.
Same for the music as we cannot see the artists.

Hi Gabor,

All movies and TV series are SHOWs and a SHOW has one or more VIDEO files associated with it. There is a flag in the SHOW table which tells NMJ which are TV shows and which are movies

There is significant duplication between the SHOW and the VIDEO table and the database designee doesn't lend itself to easy retrieval of some information, the developers are aware of these limitations and are current re-designing the database to make future version more data friendly.

Unless strict naming conventions or the properties have been populated with season and/or episode information its impossible for software to know what is a TV show and what is a movie. At this time I only know how to extract data from a limited number of video formats.

To try to help with identifying incorrectly defined shows and movies Tools -> Reports will allow you to extract listing of shows filleted on type and other various properties. That having been said, there's always scope for improvement Smile

Thou, I wish that the other details from IMDB will automatically updated when the TTID is inputed.
Is there a way to automate this one? Specially for the CAST, IMAGES, GENRE and SYNOPSIS...
Actually, I'm only having troubles inputing the details for the TV series...

Hi melon,

Unfortunately retrieving data from IMDb requires a paid for license, a place im not prepared to go in a free app Smile

As I have mentioned above I can extract Season and Episode information from some file formats, and there are file naming conversions that can supply this as well, tho it might be debatable weather renaming all your files or fixing the data is more effort intensive. For naming conversions please visit the following thread [HOWTO] Naming, Tags, Exclude, how to get an good start.

The Popcornhour scan will retrieve data, but unless file names are quite exacting often gets the wrong IMDb entry.

I could make the modifications as indicated.

Unfortunately the tool doesn't attempt to automatically determine if a video file is part of a TV show or an individual movie.
To fix you episodes you drag and drop, or cut and paste, the episode onto the TV series in the main view window. Dropping on the TV show will add the episode to the end of the list, dropping onto an exiting episode will insert before that episode.

To avoid this happening when your adding a new video file you can either select the TV show in the main window then use "Add to Show from File" or in the scan window select the Show in the "Add to Show" list.
