    Hi Trevor,

    Fixed it for me too - Thanks :D

    On a separate note for anyone - how do the lookups work?

    I have a folder\music video setup called the following:

    Chase & status\Chase & Status - Let it go

    When I try and do a scan, it lists a loads of artists with the same/similar name, but not the one I want (so the parsing is right, but the lookup is not how I expect)

    The exact artist name match returns this incorrect biography:

    1) This page is currently being shared by the jpop group featuring Saaya Irie, and the person in the default picture. The jpop group is the artist of the song "CHASE ME!"

    2) Bill Chase was a virtuostic trumpet player who played in the Buddy Rich Big Band and later led his own jazz-rock group "Chase". He and most of his band were tragically killed in a plane crash.

    3) Chase was also a Christian Metal group that put out a CD called "In Pursuit" about 1993/1994 on the label "SALT Inc Music." This Chase was made up of Scott Lowmaster (Rhythm Guitar and Lead Vocals), Virgil Burdic (Lead Guitar and Vocals), Ron Chase (Bass Guitar) and Jay Corey (Drums).

    4) Eurodance act produced by Tony Verde and Sandro Murru. There were two different female vocalists for Chase. Cindy Wyffels replaced the first one in 1996. Produced eurodance hits such as Love for the Future and Music Is My Life

    5) Chase is also a solo project of Chase Williams, North Idahoan guitarist.

    6) Chase is also the stage name of Michael di Martino, a YouTube personality who performs stylised sign-language versions of current pop songs for the deaf community. Based in New York City, di Martino works as a sign language interpreter and has begun recording as a side project.

    7) CHASE is also a very unknown band that only EP'S are currently available of


    If I go onto Last.FM and do a search for "Chase & Status" it finds the correct artist/group and the right biography/picture.

    Thanks,

    J.

    ps - One minor thing I have noticed, the progress bar when doing an import doesn't seem to reach the end (100% point), but everything is imported (so it appears)

    Try "Chase and Status" intead, the plugin uses the & symbol for multi artist collaborations

    Dangerzone,

    You were right. MP must have changed the ffmeg path back to the default and I didn't even check. Working fine now.


    Trevor,

    You're a legend.

    Thanks,

    Brett

    yes install original version, then overwrite the original .dll with trevors one.
    also you need to DL ffmpeg and ptg###.dll (i forget the exact name), place then in the mediaportal directory.
    if you don't have these files you can find them in the old mvids plugin, not sure why he didn't include them with this version.

    ptg###.dll (i forget the exact name) ????? I don't see any file in mvid's section or something simular. I only got ffmpeg.exe so can you or someone else give me the right name of the this file i need? preferable to attach to your message or send it to me. As i can guess it isn't easy to find this file .

    Hi there,

    I tried "Chase and Status" from within this plugin.

    The results are different than those done direct with last.fm website??

    Thanks,

    J.

    if the file is needed you will get an error saying P#######.dll is missing, if not don't worry
