    Wow, changed the default scraper site to allmusic.com - and tataaaa it works!!!
    Click to expand...

    The "problem" that I just noticed (and honestly, this was expectable...:oops:) is, that this overwrites the previous scraped TADB-Data wiht AllMusic Data. Just the same thing that happens when you press Info/F9 inside Mediaportal and update Artist/Album Information...

    So IMHO at the moment the best way to get maximum & language specific Artist/Album Information is:
    1. Deactivate FanartHandler TADB scraping (edit FanartHandler.xml)
    2. Activate MusicInfoHandler (set AllMusic scraping) in Mediaportal configuration
    3. Start Mediaportal
    4. Run AllMusic Scrape with MusicInfoHandler
    5. Wait :coffee:;) till download complete (monitor MediaPortal.log)
    6. Close Mediaportal
    7. Activate FanartHandler TADB scraping (edit FanartHandler.xml)
    8. Deactivate MusicInfoHandler plugin in Mediaportal configuration -
      OR dectivate the <Autostart> Option - if you want to use Allmusic scraper for manual scraping later...
    9. Start Mediaportal
    10. Wait (more :coffee::coffee:;)) till download complete (monitor FanartHandler.log)
    Close MP and BACKUP MusicDatabase ;)

    If I remember correctly, during Full Scan, the PH checks the entire Artist list and if the information received from the AudiDB site differs from the information in the Database, it overwrites it. :whistle::coffee:

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    The only configuration that is certain to work is when the MP client and MP server are from the same release. It is sometimes possible to use MP clients from a release that is different to the MP server, but whether it works depends on the specific changes that were made between the two releases. -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    It is present, but not with that name. It is called Scheduler, viz: Interesting.

First backup your working profile for the remote, then in the "Mapping" panel make a change to...
