Apollo for Mediaportal 1 (5 Viewers)

Using those as the filters on the unwatched tile or same result just clicking movies tile and choosing e.g all movies ?

Were you agreeing to this or the other comment ?
TVSeries uses the category name as filter instead of id.

Hi guys,

Apologies for stupid questions from an Apollo rookie.

I am planning to eventually switch to MP2 and thereon use BV in combination with @ge2301 's Win 10 theme. Before doing this I wanted to prepare my family for this and use Apollo on the current MP1 installation. I have two points:

• Language
  • Many tile entries are showing in English, despite language being set to German
  • Some German translations are incorrect. e.g. English "Volume" should be "Lautstärke", not "Volumen"
• Plugin support for MyFIlms: Can't get this one to show. Does Apollo lack support for MyFIlms?

P.S.: Windows Defender is still throwing a virus warning for ApolloSettingsBackup.exe and quarantines this file.

Tile labels are manually set in home quick settings so they can be watever you want, only plugin labels are translated.
Translations are direct from mp string xml's so if they are wrong its a mp problem not skin, where are you seeing volume text ?
Nope no support for myfilms so far as no one has requested it and i will need a database from a user that does.

There is already a thread about the windows defender false positive which is exactly what it is false, either add it to exclusions or remove it but if you remove it you wont be able to use it to backup skin settings for auto restore when there are updates.

Got it. Once you know, it's very straightforward.

Here. But none of these text entries are contained in strings_de.xml under ProgramData\etc. Where are these MP settings translation stored?

Let me know if you would like me to PM you something and what exactly.

I know. Just thought that Microsoft would have updated its definitions at some point.

<String id="101007">Volumen</String>
That is it in strings_de.xml so if it's wrong it will need correcting and submitting to master.
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\language\strings_en.xml etc

I know. Just thought that Microsoft would have updated its definitions at some point.

You can't rely on microsoft for anything and defender has always sucked unfortunately lol.

I will need a link to some sensible documentation on how to set it up as last time i looked it was far more complicated than it should be, i will also need a copy of your myfilms database so i have "fake" movies to work with.

Which probably has not changed. I like MyFIlms for some other properties. Thank you, but since I plan to change to MP2 anyway, there is no point to spend time on something that nobody has asked you to support.

Just out of curiosity - I am trying to change the 'Unwatched' parameter on the Movies tile to 'Latest' but where do I find a list of the available plugin parameters?
Specifically the categoryid one for Moving Pictures latest I assume?
