Playing around a little more with the My Video's portion of MP last night, you can also do this within My Videos. It's a little time consuming, but I cleared my database and started adding my titles by hand, doing a IMDB search, adding the files by hand in the files section, and then adding my large cover pics by hand also. When you switch to the By Name or By Year etc views in My Videos, the items in your database will be displayed and when selecting a movie with more than 1 file a little disc icon will appear in the top right hand corner for you to select which disc to start from. Pressing F3 on a movie will bring up IMDB info and a larger cover pic like usual.
I noticed that there is also a space in the databse to add a disc number I assume to promt for movies that you have on a disc, but as mine are all on HD I am not sure how this works.
The only thing I would like to see implimented in My Videos is Mediainfo parsing for files (which Ant combined with My Movies plugin does do), and some nifty graphics options implimented into skins to show these graphics based upon the databse info such as resolution, codec, audio/subs tracks ect in a similar fashion to the current My TVshows plugin. Also the addition of a Box Set field would allow for some viewing by movie compliations such as Star Wars, Star Trek and so forth.
Hope this helps. |
