The same thing happened on mvids.

Theres nothing in the plugin to tell it to do it, so I can only assume its a MP code thing.

Im hoping to release 0.4 in the next few days. Not a major upgrade, but have exposed the extensions to the settings window, so I dont need to keep release fixes for that.

The smart playlists will also be mostly implemented. Have done newest, most played and least played. Unsure wether highest rated will be included in 0.4, as im not sure wether rating will be included in 0.4

0.4 will perform a DB update, so if you have a large DB (like me) that takes a while to re-scan, it may pay to wait for positive results from those game enough to try it first.... Or not. All my tests show it to be fine.

But... I have attached a sneak preview of 0.5. After 0.4 bug fixes will slow down considerably, and probably not released until 0.5 is done, as the new feature in 0.5 will require a fair amount of work from me and im starting it now, so any bug fix releases would contain that new feature half finished - not a good idea (and im not up with SVN branches and trunks etc.)

Anyway sneak preview attached..... :D

Greetings Schwabe

The upcoming version will. Ill try and get a hold of it before hand so I can distribute it with the plugin.

New version on front page 0.4 includes 4 of 5 smart playlists, enabled users to add/remove video extensions in the plugin config, some bug fixes, and just a big code tidy (not that you guys care about how tidy the code is :p)

I have also removed the need for NLog.dll so you can delete that from your plugins/windows folder as it is no longer needed by this plugin.

Problems at my end with this version.

If I try to configure it after installation by ticking the configure box I get "Error in Plugin SetForm Loading. Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation"

If I load Media Portal configuration I get an error message telling me that the plug in is not compatible with the current version of Media Portal.
I am using version 1.0.4.23491 on XP home.

Back to 0.3.11 for the moment - which is still working fine.

Ok. That will be something wrong in the database updating.

Id reccomend everyone hold off for an hour or so, just gotta go get my car fixed, then Ill fix this issue. Or you can delete your db and it should work fine from there.

Mark, do you have the logs from it to send me please, just so I can see where the error is exactly.

    So you mean to play the most played videos? If you go to Smart Playlists then Favourite tracks thats what you get

    Mark, do you have the logs from it to send me please, just so I can see where the error is exactly.

    The only thing it contains is :-

    07:55:07: Info: Starting data manager

    And that's it!

    I have removed the database and now installed version 4, and that allows everything to start ok.
    When I configure the watch folder everything is ok, and the parsing test works fine.

    However when I try scan the folders I get the dreaded 'Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close ... ' dialogue.

    Will have a further play as the day progressings (Thanks to 'Logmein' !)

    I am running XP service pack 3 with all Windows updates up to date.
    The PC is only used for MediaPortal
