Re: mvCentral - Music Vidoes Plugin Beta Release

..Skin engine issue to ensure it centres remove the width line, this will then center ok but overspill both sides on long descriptions so lose one problem and gain another.

I thought it might be a skin engine issue - I assume the MP devs know about it...

...Sent you a PM with the link to the RC version that fixes this - it is the version that mrbonsen is using as he is one of the testers...

Yep that fixed it again

AW: mvCentral - Music Vidoes Plugin Beta Release

simple solution for fanart.
who used fanart plugin handler has been a fanart folder with music.
can also be used for mvcentral - plugin without grabbing new with.

<control>
<description>Fanart</description>
<type>image</type>
<id>0</id>
<posX>0</posX>
<posY>0</posY>
<width>1280</width>
<height>720</height>
<texture>x:\standart fanart folder musik\#selecteditem.jpg</texture>
</control>

problem "# selecteditem.jpg" artist does not only view and track.
I use "# mvCentral.Hierachy.jpg" fanart I see in track (from the right artist) but not with artist.

somebody has an idea?
I want so solve because I generally use no fanarthandler and did everything manually edit xml file in the fanart own to determine (download / quality)

trevor can use this theme and maybe fanart is done "standart path music fanart" in xml install!

so now from skiing holiday in - I wish you all a Merry Christmas!

Re: mvCentral - Music Vidoes Plugin Beta Release

Hello!
Really thanks for this plugin! great replace my dead musicvids for mp1.2.x.
I triyed it and i've got a littel bug, when i'm playing a video clip from an artist, if i want to go back to choose another, i fall directely on MP mainscreen, and if i try to enter in MVcentral, i fall directely on the artist that i play the song!!!!

To resolve this problem i need to stop the video, and then move between artists songs! Is there a way to correct this? am i alone?

Thanks

Set your view to Artists again. And it will right itself

Hi nobru26,

Just released 1.0.0.262 - that should fix the problem.

thx

 

[trevor]

If anyone downloaded 1.0.0.262 please update to the latest version 1.0.0.264

An error had crept into the parsing expressions that would cause parsing to fail when using mutli depth folder layout.

Hi Trevor

Thanks for the latest release

I noticed a couple of issues with the Config (see pic below)

Re: Fanart - I'm still not getting any fanart for "a-ha" but the strange thing is that there is plenty of fanart for them in the C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\mvCentral\Artists\FullSize directory I have even gone into the database with SQLite Expert and added the fanart manually but still no joy

Also when I click the "refresh" button in the "import" tab I don't see anything happen - for example I changed a track name from AC_DC - Thundersruck to ACDC - Thunderstruck & it doesn't matter how many times I click "refresh" that file is not being found

Just wanted to get these comments in before you thought about winding up for Christmas

Have a good one.

Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks for pointing this out, missed it. VS having a funny 1/2 hour and setting the textboxs to 0 width - guess will releasing another version pretty quick.

This folder does not hold full screen fanart as such, well guess can be used for this but the deisgn used this as aritist image. Default skins and SMP use Fanart Handler, tend to think of that as part of MP these days.

Just checked and I also dont get fanart though my FH folder (S:\MediaPortal\thumbs\Skin Fanart\Scraper\music) has ah-a fanart but without the '-', small problem that. Will check with cul8er as if non alpha characters are removed when the file is saved I wonder if they are also removed before the lookup is done.

Also when I click the "refresh" button in the "import" tab I don't see anything happen - for example I changed a track name from AC_DC - Thundersruck to ACDC - Thunderstruck & it doesn't matter how many times I click "refresh" that file is not being found

The refresh button only really works if you have files that have failed parsing and you are changing parsing expressions or replacements, been thinking of pulling that screen.

From the import screen on the Advanced Actions dropdown try 'Unignore All Files'.

Hi Trevor

Re: Fanart for A-Ha (it's not that I'm hooked on these guys, I just want to get the fanart showing! ) I have fanart showing for them in C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\Skin FanArt\Scraper\music and this fanart shows up when I play A-Ha through the Music plugin and it also shows up in the MusicVids plugin so that would seem to rule out FanartHandler having any issues with the band name/format.

..The refresh button only really works if you have files that have failed parsing and you are changing parsing expressions or replacements, been thinking of pulling that screen.

I just went to try this and the file has been "found" now Oh well, at least it's there

Keep up the great work!

It's Christmas Day here now so time to go and stuff my self silly with food

All the best to everyone!
