[QUOTE="Gendal, post: 481303, member: 65105"] On Vista it's at C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log , on XP I imagine it's under "Documents & Settings\<user name>\Application Data" or something. Well done on the plugin, it was exactly what I was looking for, and I didn't even know it. I had a kludged together solution with the awesome TVSeries plugin, but it was a pain in the arse to get working with Anime. My biggest stumbling block was just getting started, which could have been easily fixed with some simple instructions.

File names, folders, etc - none of this matters. c) At least for now you need to disable the web service option in the plugin config or it will time out when you run the import. Uncheck "Submit\retrieve data from plugin web service" on the first tab. 2) Launch MediaPortal and run the My Anime plug in a) You need to get to the options screen for the plug in, which I did by using the arrow keys to go up/down/left/right whatever (it depends on your theme) to get the "Run Import" option. Click it. b) Optionally follow the progress in the option menu by clicking on Utilities c) Wait. It can take hours to scan all of the files. Beats having to rename everything though. [/QUOTE]
