[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1143820, member: 82144"] ...but why would it need to? Most people would just want to have TVE using the same recording folder(s) as whatever software they were previously using. So to be clear: when somebody switches to TVE, TVE would just start adding to their existing recordings. ...but nor was MP2 a couple of months ago! The solution for TVE is the same as the solution for MP2: just a few classes to enable it to interpret the WTV and DVRMS metadata so it can be added in the database Recordings table. You chose to put that code in MP2... but no love for TVE? Again, I just don't understand why you'd want to do this. It makes perfect sense for TVE to have a thumbnailer. Rather than disabling TVE's thumbnailer, [I]why don't you simply use the thumbnails that it creates?[/I] In decisions like this it feels as if you want to minimise the role/responsibilities of TVE and have MP2 do everything, even when that isn't the best solution from a TVE [B]or user[/B] perspective.
