I will need to add this to my list of things to support.Just a quick reminder that the version you are using is really an alpha.My To Do list has about 50 features/bugs that I know about already. This is without even really considering MyAnimeList and TheTvDB support1. will need to test this out2. Probably best to post you XML files and I will take a look. I'll try and get some basic skins for MediaSteam and streamedmp.3. Filmstrip and wide banner views are not really supported yet. I only added basic support to test rendering etc4. Yup this on on my to do listOk quick tutorial on the importing process.mp-tvseries usually has the following structureSeries - Season - Episodes (based on TheTvDB.com)Myanimeplugin2 does the followingGroup - Series - Episode Types - EpisodesWhen you open the pugin, what you are seeing are all the groups.When you import a new file, it gets all the data from AniDB, which does not support seasons.For instance Naruto and Naruto Shippuden are considered two different series by AniDB.When importing a new file it will do the following1. Create the episode2. Create the series based on AniDB information if one doesn't already exist3. Create a new group if one doesn't already exist for the above seriesAlso movies and OVA's on AniDB are usually associated with a particular series, but classified as a different episode type.For Naruto you end up with two different groups and one series under each of those groups.You can then go into the config screen, and move one of those series to the other group, and then delete the group with no series left in it.See the screenshots below[ATTACH]40408[/ATTACH][ATTACH]40409[/ATTACH][ATTACH]40410[/ATTACH][ATTACH]40411[/ATTACH][ATTACH]40412[/ATTACH][ATTACH]40413[/ATTACH]Another note - I notice it looks like you have been assigning all the banners and fanart via the config screen already.Personally I wouldn't start using this plugin seriously yet.I am still doing some major database changes, and a future version may require you to delete your database.I will try to make future versions upgradeable, but there is no guarantee until an "official" version is releasedYeah i tried looking for a C library as well <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I also read that dvdkhl who has has a UDP app (avdump2 I think) has written a really fast hashing algorithm.Might be worth a try to contact him.I already have my code on google.But I am waiting for the DB structures to settle down enough before I open it up.This should happen once I get some basic TvDB/MAL support in next week some time.Yeah I have attempted to tackle this problem in v2 in a couple of ways.It now stores a cache of file names and hashes in the database, so it no longer needs to go to the web service when you move a file.I am also attempting some tighter integration with AniDB.So when you add a new file it checks for the watched status online and sets it locally.You will still end up with records in the database, but they should be cleaned up by the process which removes record for files which no longer exist.Also renaming folders won't work in v2, because it is no longer folder centric. Of course you could rename the groups via the config screen.Is there a reason why favourites don't work for you?</blockquote>
