MePo Tools - Download ClearArt/CDArt/ClearLogos, Music Video clips and more! (4 Viewers)

Hi @ajs

Is your MePo Tools project open source? Do you use some kind of source control?
I'm thinking of writing a similar tool, but for subtitles, and it will save me a lot of time if I could look at your code, and use parts of it...

Thanks,
Yoav

No ...

and it will save me a lot of time if I could look at your code, and use parts of it...

Written in Delphi, was written quickly, so the code clumsy and awful. Can I help you, or add subtitles download here ...

I can prompt, or give interesting pieces of code, question, think straight.

Hello ajs,

Apologies if this has already been discussed earlier - I didn't want to read through 42 pages of thread

I installed MePoTools today and it works nicely for Series and Movies nut I am having issues whn downloading Artist/Album art. For this category the scraper gets stucked. What happens is that it will Display "Get Musicbrainz ID.." and then that's it. Now, if I click on update, it will start from top of the list, successfully retrieve data for the first entry, move on to the second entry where it get stucked again. Clicking "Update" then sends it back to entry #1, which is skipped as it is already there, then entry #2 gets downloaded, and it stucks again at entry #3.

Is this anything known or am I doing something wrong?

Regards,
HTPC_Sourcer

@HTPC_Sourcer
He must find Muzikbrains ID and download pictures. Ask and should not stay. Bk lyuchite maximum level debug log file, close, delete the log, run and start the download or update to the artist and the album, then send me the log.

Ajs, thanks for the quick answer. I already looked for a log file and couldn't find any, which helped me identify the cause of the problem:

Your tools are writing into the same path where they are installed. Since I placed it into the (x86) Program Files path, it is running into an insufficient priviege issue. I moved the Folder elsewhere and now it works.

Suggestion: change the code to create directories and files in a separate path in the C:\ProgramData\TeamMediaportal\ section, e.g. at ..\TeamMediaPortal\Tools or Utilities.[DOUBLEPOST=1391273919][/DOUBLEPOST]But the log Shows another error that relates to FanartHandler:

Note that the official FH release does not work in coonection with MePo 1.6. An updated, inofficial beta has been provided by @Sebastiii. As far as I see, the database structure has changed, hence maybe some compatibility issues between what you are querying and what the new FH2 database is expecting.

Hi all,
I just added my concerts to the Moving Pictures plugin and some of them are known in the imdb database but the major part is unknown.
I also found discovered the mvcentral plugin today by a tip of another user. Apparently, that plugin uses the last.fm site and did find missing info.
My question: can this tool add missing information so that my moving pictures data looks better?
TIA
P.

EDIT: disregard my post

I'm worth the original FH plugin, that which you, do not want to work for me. Those errors only affect the function of cleaning the database and directory with pictures. If you use them, then give me your database file I look at him.

Suggestion: change the code to create directories and files in a separate path in the C:\ProgramData\TeamMediaportal\ section, e.g. at ..\TeamMediaPortal\Tools or Utilities.

The program can be used on a computer without media portal, so made so that all your settings and service files stored beside him.

Hi ajs, I was to quick with my question and did not read the information well enough while now, by searching for solutions for my requirements, I realized that this doesn't fit my bill.
Thanks anyway for replying!

Not a big deal. As I was anyway having some issues with Sebastiii's adjusted FanartHandler (FH2), it could be that my observation was simply due to an incorrectly updated fanarthandler.db3 - something that I resolved after my posting in this thread. Eventually @cul8er will release an official new version that works with MediaPortal 1.6 and higher. If errors pertain, I will post again.

Thx,

No.

That's fine and I understand the logic now. However, if you call the program from a restricted space, i.e. the Program Files, it will not work unless you launch the program with full admin rights. If you have time, you may build in a warning message that work files cannot be created due to insufficient privileges.
