Error displaying IMDB info in shares view (1 Viewer)

[DickyT]

Hi,

I have recently moved from MCE 2005 to Media Portal 1.0 RC 3 and am very impressed.

When in MyVideos on Shares view, and the share is highlighted, (but not yet selected) the movie description for the first movie within the share is displayed. How can I stop this happening?

Many thanks.

This is a bug in MP share view. Let see if this get corrected - I have correction for that already available but this should be noted/moved to bugs section.

I know this is not a formal way to do this but here for devs if interested.

GUIVideoFiles.cs:

    private void SetMovieProperties(string path)
    {
      IMDBMovie info = new IMDBMovie();
      if (path == "..")
      {
        info.Reset();
        info.SetProperties();
        return;
      }
      bool isDirectory = false;
      bool isMultiMovie = false;
      bool isFound = false;
      try
      {
        if (System.IO.Directory.Exists(path))
        {
          isDirectory = true;
          string[] files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(path);
          foreach (string file in files)
          {
            IMDBMovie movie = new IMDBMovie();
            VideoDatabase.GetMovieInfo(file, ref movie);
            if (!movie.IsEmpty)
            {
              if (!isFound)
              {
                info = movie;
                isFound = true;
              }
              else
              {
                isMultiMovie = true;
                break;
              }
            }
          }
        }
        else
          VideoDatabase.GetMovieInfo(path, ref info);

        if (info.IsEmpty)
          FetchMatroskaInfo(path, isDirectory, ref info);

        if (isMultiMovie)
          info.Reset();
        
        info.SetProperties();
        
      }
      catch (Exception) { }
    }

    private void item_OnItemSelected(GUIListItem item, GUIControl parent)
    {
      SetMovieProperties(item.Path);      
      GUIFilmstripControl filmstrip = parent as GUIFilmstripControl;
      if (filmstrip != null) 
        filmstrip.InfoImageFileName = item.ThumbnailImage;      
    }
