Guzzi. When performing a manual update with "only add missing data" checked, the log always says " Updated: Source" for every movie, even if it was not empty and it was neither marked in the "database fields" tab.
Is that a bug?
Thx again

Good finding ;-) - I noticed that too.
The reason is, that "Source" is not a real database field, but a mapped virtual field. Practically it COULD be "source" - or could be URL or whatever. Will think about how we could change the handling to avoid that output ...

Hi z3us, I added a fix in #1707 - conditions are now applied for source field as for all other fields.

As tester, am I supposed to have access to that file? Or is it part of a future release?

Both ;-) ... actually, it will of course be included in a future release - and in this case, I have not yet made a current build for it - but whenever you want a build (e.g. to test certain fix like this one) just drop me a short PM. Otherwise I will provide testversion, when I think it's needed or time for regression testing - and that one of course also will include all changes.
Just be aware that currently there is some "work-in-progress" - so a testversion might have issues in other areas I am currently working on - e.g. I just noticed the new "edition support" adds dupe strings to titles, if option is set...

AMC Updater not starting anymore

Hi,

AMCU was running for some days quite well on my desktop PC and I was able to import my movies.

From one day to another AMCU is not starting anymore. Meaning it creates the icon for the window in the taskbar but the window is not displayed.

Unfortunately the log is not so helpfull for this issue:

19.10.2011 20:21:44 -
19.10.2011 20:21:44 - AMCUpdater 5.1.0.1468 Starting
19.10.2011 20:21:44 - Arguments Found : 3
19.10.2011 20:21:44 - Running in forced GUI Mode with Configfile
12.11.2011 16:06:56 -
12.11.2011 16:06:56 - AMCUpdater 5.1.0.1468 Starting
12.11.2011 16:06:56 - Arguments Found : 3
12.11.2011 16:06:56 - Running in forced GUI Mode with Configfile

Its quite strange as I am also using AMCU on my Notebook (only Mediaportal Client connected to TV) and I have the same behaviour here -> Running for some days and then without an change (as I can remember) not starting anymore.

I tried already completly reinstalling MyFilms but had no luck.

Both systems are Windows 7 X64, with my desktop almost fresh installed 2 weeks before.

I have also downloaded the AMCU 0.8 from sourceforge and its running quite well till now. But this isnt a real solution.

Thanks for the help

Alex

Only thing I can think of as the cause is that you would have renamed or deleted your cfg of MyFilms or AMCupdater. The direct access created is linked with that cfg.

Hi,

finally I have managed to solve the issue!

I have monitored the process with sysinternals process monitor and seen that it tries to access something in my user profile. I thought AMCU and also mediaportal store all data in %programdata%, so I had a look and there was a user.config under :

C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\AMCUpdater

I have delete the file and now its working again.

Here is the content of the file, looks like some .NET related stuff:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="userSettings" type="System.Configuration.UserSettingsGroup, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" >
<section name="AMCUpdater.My.MySettings" type="System.Configuration.ClientSettingsSection, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" allowExeDefinition="MachineToLocalUser" requirePermission="false" />
</sectionGroup>
</configSections>
<userSettings>
<AMCUpdater.My.MySettings>
<setting name="LogFormLocation" serializeAs="String">
<value>0, 0</value>
</setting>
<setting name="MainFormSize" serializeAs="String">
<value>160, 38</value>
</setting>
<setting name="MainFormLocation" serializeAs="String">
<value>-32000, -32000</value>
</setting>
<setting name="LogFormVisible" serializeAs="String">
<value>False</value>
</setting>
<setting name="LogFormSize" serializeAs="String">
<value>532, 196</value>
</setting>
</AMCUpdater.My.MySettings>
</userSettings>
</configuration>

I was also able to reproduce this by putting the file back into that folder, and ta da the application was not creating the window properly again.

What is quite strange is that the file gets not recreated after I deleted it ...

That is the settings file where it stores window size/position for main and log window. Never had such issue so far - but have to say I only have WinXP, so that might be different.
If you're able to give me instructions to reproduce, I can fix it (but will need to reproduce it for that of course).

Hi,

I dont know how these values came into the file, perhaps a problem during saving...

<setting name="MainFormLocation" serializeAs="String">
<value>-32000, -32000</value>

But this means that the window will be rendered out of the visible area, so perhaps its enough to check during startup of AMCU if the values of MainFormLocation are lower then the display resolution...
