MP Newbie with a couple of questions (1 Viewer)

[Jacko]

Good morning everyone (or evening/afternoon depending!)

I installed tvseries last night and configured it as much as possible, i inputted all the directories for where media is stored and did a search...i would say 75% was found and this was great, due to some of the naming on files/folders it couldn't determine what the other 25% was so this is a big job to go through and rename everything but i don't mine as long as it works. But i have a couple of questions; i've got a tv series (mentioning no names) i folderise everything and this is how its structured (z:\'show name'\'show series'\'the its a list of episodes) so if i've got a tv series with 4 series then each series is in its own folder. (understand ) Now after i had searched in the configuration panel i then went into the media portal and opened the 'MyTvSeries' after a while of messing around i managed to get a load of banners come up on the left hand side ,each banner has a image that corresponds to the series BUT i get loads of them coming up, for instance i get about 18 odd banners all with the same image coming up due to the 18 odd different folders that are from the same series.....what can i do to fix this other than sticking all the media from all the series folders into one main folder? I can do this, but for ease of explore navigation i would prefer not to.

Hope someone can advise me as to how i can fix it, i have now started using the xface skin and WOW i can't get over the cool DVD/CD 3D cases for the folder artwork its magic, as soon as i get the tvseries plugin and tv tuner working i shall deploy the MP solution to all media PC's in the house as its leaps and bounds ahead of the competition (and trust me when i say i've used a few...all i've been doing for the past 2 months is test different solutions but could never find a package that offered so much flexibility and scalability than with MP)

I shall (waiting on payday) be making a contribution to MP as a thank you to all your hard work.

Regards
Andy

I suggest you make a new thread in TV-Series forum with a more accurate topic. Chances that the right people see your post and are able to answer your questions there are much greater.

Either link to this post or just copy/paste it.


Good luck =)

Hi

Have a look at Home, it a new plugin that i have not tried, but it may help you do what you want.

Recorded TV shows, sounds right up the TVSeries plugin street, found here

Hi Paranoid Delusion,
I'm a newbie, anxious to please and do the right thing, but when I click the link to "For full support & logs etc." it doesn't go anywhere useful e.g. there's nothing that I can see about logs.

10/2/08 that link was the same for at least another couple of days but is OK now
