Hi all,

im using the newest StreamedMP-Version.

Im organizing my movies with ember media manger. As we all know the emm doesnt give us "writer"-Information. So on all my Movie Details pages i see a vast emptiness after WRITERS.


But EMM gets the imdb top 250 information. so i thought of this:

-Remove the Writer-Line.
-Move Director Up th where Writer was
-Put Runtime where Director was
-Put the new IMDB Top 250: where Runtime was.


Am i to asume, the xml-file to change is movingpictures.common.details.xml?
I use the ModPack discussed here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...st-streamedmp-logos-display-86305/index2.html

So that should be the complete writers section:
<control>
<description>Writers Label</description>
<type>label</type>
<label>#MovingPictures.Translation.Writers.Label</label>
<id>0</id>
<posX>363</posX>
<posY>584</posY>
<width>120</width>
<font>mediastream11c</font>
<textcolor>ff909090</textcolor>
<visible>!control.isvisible(50)+!control.isvisible(51)</visible>
<animation effect="fade" time="250" delay="0">WindowClose</animation>
</control>
<control>
<description>Writer</description>
<type>label</type>
<label>#MovingPictures.SelectedMovie.writers</label>
<id>0</id>
<posX>488</posX>
<posY>584</posY>
<width>370</width>
<font>mediastream11c</font>
<textcolor>ffFFFFFF</textcolor>
<visible>!control.isvisible(50)+!control.isvisible(51)</visible>
<animation effect="fade" time="250" delay="0">WindowClose</animation>
</control>

Id use the posx and posy and copy that to the director section. same thing from director to runtime.
so i think then id have the director and runtime at the right place.

the complete writer section above gets deleted (or commented out).

So all thats missing is the imdb top 250. Id say i copy the writer section from above, change the posx and posy
to the former runtime settings. But then i would have just moved the writer section on the details page...
what do i have to change to which settings to get it to read the imdb top 250 and change the Name from Writers to IMDB Top 250.

If i change "#MovingPictures.Translation.Writers.Label" just to "IMDB Top 250" i guess it would change the Name of the Field.
I dont know if "hardcoded" information is good here.

But if im right with where to find the label, this one "#MovingPictures.SelectedMovie.writers" would enter the actual value from the database.
correct? So what has to go here to enter the number? Or am i out of luck and the information just doesnt get parsed from the nfo into the database?

Maybe someone already did something like that or can point me in the right direction? Im not at home in xml files...

Thanks for any help! much appreciated!

    We can only display content that is imported into MovingPictures database, and I'm pretty sure IMDB Top 250 isn't.

    Am i to asume, the xml-file to change is movingpictures.common.details.xml?
    Correct.
