dukus - I found the root of the problem for my #2 issue i posted on the DVDProfiler import - it appears that you are not using the sorted title - I believe the XML tag is <SortTitle>. DVDProfiler will place the "A" and "The" from the beginning of the title and place it at the end in the sorted title. For example: "A Bugs Life" will be "Bugs Life, A" or "The Great Escape" will be "Great Escape, The"

2) The second problem is that the import does not ignore an "A" or "The" in the title so the listing does not appear correct. OK, it doesn't look how I have had them arranged in alphobetical order.

This is true. I changet totaly the DVDProfiler import, now problem with speed is solved, and i maked a generic title formater for all import. But the plugin is not publised. Maybe next week. I need solve another tree yours problem :wink:

dukus - This sounds great. Thanks for your work!

I don't know if your code change will pick this up - but I found that the XML tag you are using for Overview doesn't appear to be correct. The data that is showing appears like it is from easter egg, but I haven't found it yet. The tag should be "Overview" - so I dont know what happened.

Another problem - View by artist. Sometimes it works then other times it doesn't. When it doesn't it either shows maybe three actors, other times it doesn't display any actors.

Thought of a feature request. While in Artist view it would be nice to see the actor's portrait (maybe from IMDB) shown in the area where the DVD's are being displayed in the lower left area.

Hi Dukus,

converted my Ant catalog now to be xml.
Can read now the catalog.
However on one particular movie i'm always getting an exception:

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Length cannot be less than zero.
Parameter name: length
   at System.String.InternalSubStringWithChecks(Int32 startIndex, Int32 length, Boolean fAlwaysCopy)
   at GUIDVDs.DVD_DB.AddActor(DVD r)
   at GUIDVDs.DVD_DB.CreateRec(DVD r)
   at GUIDVDs.MyDVDs.GetDVDsXMLant(String fileName, String folderName)
   at GUIDVDs.MyDVDs.ButImport_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Don't know which field is causing the problem.
Maybe you can write out some log file?

Also one small change please.
When selecting the option to import into the movie db, it makes no sense to have the dvd database created as well.

thanks,

Helmut

Possible buddy to use with this plugin?

If anyone wants to - please feel free to create a more attractive image. I would welcome it.

Mike

EDIT: Changed to match the size of other hover buddies: Pictures, Plugins & Settings. They should match with size and position now.

Problems navigating with remote/keyboard

Thanx for a great plugin!

I just have one problem atm...

When i change view to "Genre" in swedish (category in english i guess) and it lists up all kinds of available categorys that i got (Comedy, Horror etc etc) i cannot click on each category to ONLY show the movies in selected category. I dont know if that function is supported, but i think it could be a nice feature, when searching through all movies by category.

EDIT::
Just noticed that this future is available, but it ONLY works when klicking on each category with the mouse. When i use my MCE remote or the keyboard, i must first go up to "Show: List" and then to the right to be able to pick a category, but then its not working. Nothing happens when choosing a category

Any ideas whats wrong?

Thanks a lot
Martin

Btw...sorry my bad english
