Movie importer's possible match problem (1 Viewer)

[genosfear]

I just installed Media Portal and Moving pictures with the latest Streamed MP skin. Everything went fine until it came to importing a bunch of films. Out of 433 videos only about 50 came back with possible matches.

This is an example of 4 films that I imported. All of which as you can see came back with the same result. When I click on the drop down list to select an alternative film nothing even close shows up.

I don't want to go through and manually assign every film...

Would there be a reason why this has happened?

there is a option saying using folder names as movie name, uncheck it and try the search again

AWESOME! Kudos on the fastest reply in history

no worries, i had a similair issue glad to help

Still the importer should know not to use the foldername as the search criteria when there is more than one movie in the folder - i would love to see some debug logs with the option still turned on yielding the above results (from the screenshots)... Can you do some testing for me?

Well if you are up for it:

Just try to reproduce the behaviour and follow these steps:

1) Backup your current database (rename it to something else)
2) Start MediaPortal Configuration and confirm the debug settings
2) Start the moving pictures plugin from the configuration screen (leave all the settings default you don't have to debug the import scripts)
3) Add a folder as import path (pick one that you know had some of these mismatches in there) and watch the import go bad.
4) Close MediaPortal configuration
5) Collect the movingpictures.log from the log directory and post it here

if you can't reproduce then i don't need the logs ofcourse

ps. afterwards delete the movingpictures.db3 en put back your backup to restore your movie collection
