    After lot of months i'am back to Mediaportal :)

    Investigating the new features and plugins forced me to the Ember Media Manager. I'am very strict regarding my movie titles in the media center. I'd like to see something like this

    James Bond 01 - First James Bond Title
    James Bond 02 - Other James Bond Title

    Jason Bourne 01 - The bla blue
    Jason Bourne 02 - thats the ori title bluoo

    I use a directory for each movie. The name of that directory is the same as the movie title which i wanna see in Mediaportal.

    EMM Mediamanager was the key. Building my movie db showed up a few problems. Maybe someone else can avoid them with this hints:

    Use <moviename>.nfo files in EMM as destination. The XML Script won't find other nfo files.
    The feature "Enable NFO Scanner" in moving pictures has to be DISABLED. That NFO is NOT the same as NFO-Files from EMM
    Set Data Sources to manual and import the EMM_MEDIA_MANAGER_3.xml (s. Zip File)
    Make EMM Import the first / topmost and/or disable the rest
    If you need to reimport everything just drop all Media-Source directories in MoPi and select them again after all movies are cleared from db by mopi

    If you have only "movie.nfo" files (like me :D take the autohotkey script in the attached zip file. For autohotkey look at autohotkey.com - The script copy's the nfo files to moviename.nfo in the movie directory. EMM seams not to create this files if you have allready an movie.nfo.

    You have to set the main movie dir in the script (he, it's a one time hack for free)

    The XML file was done by LRFalk01. Thanks! I've made a few minor changes for missing tags like "year" and "actors".

    Have fun!

    Where should the .nfo and what should the filename be called for DVDs in Video_TS structure? I cannot get Moving Pictures to recognise the .nfo.

    As the importer points to Movie Name\Video_TS\Video_TS.ifo the .nfo has been placed in this folder and the parent folder saved as video_ts but it is not recognised.

    djphatic,

    I'll fix this. There was a similar issue with the XBMC scrapper. I just need to find where I put that one ; )
