MyTVSeries - Plugin that organizes TV Video Files (2 Viewers)

[Salty.dh]

Updated

I've updated the link.

xml file added for the MCE skin

thumbs directory added too from legacy plugin versions.

Just chuck the Plugins, Skin and Thumbs directory in your MediaPortal directory and everything should be fine (when using MCE skin of course)

Enjoy!

didn't realize i could use the previous tv series skin

everything seems to be working perfectly so far. it's great to be able to browse my tv series properly again.

thanks for all the time you've taken getting this plugin online again - and thanks once more to weetodd for all the initial coding he did for it!

Great job, works fine only find one bug so far while importing:

System.NullReferenceException: De objectverwijzing is niet op een exemplaar van een object ingesteld.

It's because the episodeworld.com page doesn't have a link to the matching tv.com page. Error handling will be introduced to deal with that. The show you mentioned is a mini series which I *did* say may not work.

The best way to fix this would be to create an account on episodeworld and provide them with the updated information by providing a link to tv.com or you could wait for my next installment

Searched trough the 28 pages of this thread but could'nt find the information sorry :

How to import a file with multiepisode in it.

E.G. : Desperate Housewives S02E23-E24.avi

another Exemple is that I have Ripped my SG-1 S8 DVD to my HDD and each DVD contains 4EP. Is there a way to automatically process this ?

Thanks

Currently single file/multiple episodes are not supported. This update is really just to reintroduce a working version of this plugin with (eventually) a lot more flexibility for the series data source.

I have this particular feature on my list of considerations.

Currently DVDs I think are outside the scope of this plugin. That may change. What you're describing is a disc catalogging plugin. This plugin is really aimed at a Divx/Xvid style approach.

For now, I feel we the MP community have a lot more work to do on this plugin before I would be happy with it - Happy enough to consider an extension like this.

Hope that clears up the direction of the plugin for these topics.

Skins

On another note, I am hoping to tidy up the code and introduce the few extra features currently missing from this version. Mostly full filename support so that it actually works with my normal method for series cataloging.

I am also interested in re-addressing the skins proposed around page 6 of this thread.

I am hoping to get some community direction on the best way to implement the controls needed to do this. Am I correct in assuming the wide listview controls that display the Show banner in a horizontally scrolling display are still not implemented?

Which control do you feel would best used as a base class to construct such a control?

What other controls would be needed to implemented these skins properly. (See Brocklander's screen shots pg. 6)

Once I can understand the sort of classes that still need to be developed to pull this off, I can decide if I really do have the time for the endeavour whilst continuing the development of this excellent plugin (I'm not playing my own horn here - WeeToddDid has done an excellent job and has made my life easier!)

Hope you hear from you all soon.

Salty.

there was a release that weetoddid made (i think it was the first 0.2 version) which had those image-banner controls in it, but there was a major bug in that version and no-one could load it i'm not sure how complete the code for the controls was, but you could try contacting weetodd and he'd probably be able to give you a starting point!

can i re-request a feature? would it be possible to grab the code from the my videos module which allows you to resume for the last position of a video you where up to? might be an easy copy-and-paste feature to add...
