Error opening XML catalog (1 Viewer)

[Gianlk]

Hi,
I saw that the problem is that my xml is in iso-8859-1, while your plugin is encoded with UTF-8.
With the previous version of this plugin (before 4.7) everything worked fine.
I've a db with more than 400 movie... and I still mantain it outside MP!

Do you think it could be possible to have myfilms in ISO instead of UTF8??

Thanks!
G.

Ah this could surely be the cause of all my problems to with the new version. Everything's ISO-8859-1 here.
It should really be generic, but I dunno if this is gonna be a big problem to solve.

still getting the error. I'm reverted to the old 4.5 version and everything is fine.

I found your problem. In the new version, a new row had been added for sorting by Length. Rhat new row is the conversion of the row Length into a numeric format.
In your db, some movies have a wrong length format (ex : 99' or 1he35 instead of 95...). The automatic conversion into a numeric format is impossible for that movies.
I"ll take a look if it's possible to trap those errors and replace those enreg with a 0 value for that new row in that case. For you the sort by length'll not work however.
You have to correct all your false lengyh entries.

the best solution for him would be to do a manual update of all lenghts using AMCupdater.

i'm trying to do a manual update but if i choose "Update Value" and "Lenght", AMC UPDATER process all the movies but when i import the xml file into my films gives me the same error.

 

[z3us]

perhaps there are files not available for amcupdater because they are stored in DVD, etc.
You can do two manual updates:
1- Choose delete entry- lenght, and delete all lenghts in your amc database.
2- Choose update record, and update all lenghts of your available files

May be the xml parsing file used with AMCUpdater has something wrong...
Can you post here your wml parsing file ?
