Hi,

I too have run into the problem with an apostrophe in the series name, so look forward to a fix.

One thing that would be nice is a way to handle series that the plugin is unable to get data for - e.g. "Creature Comforts" - it's on tv.com, but not episodeworld.com. Some form of skip series option would be nice, or a manual entry to add the data by hand perhaps?

Or perhaps register with episodeworld and provide the relevant links they request to the tv.com data. You'll find they will include missing series quite quickly.

And yes, a fix is on the way...

The apostrophe unfortunately is causing some grief. I'm working on a fix this week.

Could you post an example of your file format for whose line is it anyway.

Salty.

Z:\TV Shows\Whose Line is it Anyway\Whose Line is it Anyway - 01x01 - 103.avi

Also not sure about anyone else but I’m using the MCE skin, it shows #header.label at the top, and the title of the series overlaps on the series banner.

Ive found a fix for the #header.label problem

I have left a message for Vanessa to confirm if this code removal will effect anything else but so fay everything is working ok for me


I have removed the following code from common.windows.xml from your active skin

and this has removed the #header.label from all the screens My Tv, My Music etc. its the first bit of code ive ever changed so am really unsure if this will effect anything else,

maybe there was an option i overlooked in the settings to remove the labels but i could not find it

<control>
<type>label</type>
<id>1</id>
<posX>201</posX>
<posY>71</posY>
<label>#header.label</label>
<font>font14</font>
<align>left</align>
<textcolor>ff283b45</textcolor>
</control>

<control>
<type>label</type>
<id>1</id>
<posX>200</posX>
<posY>70</posY>
<label>#header.label</label>
<font>font14</font>
<align>left</align>
<textcolor>Black</textcolor>
</control>

Great work on the plugin salty!
It has been improved, however i still got some suggestions/issues

Could you implement a feature that selects the same "search results" for a series. Lemme explain:
I got The O.C. on harddisk (used to work perfect), the filename is the.oc.s01e23.hdtv.xvid
Plugin keeps asking for every single file what series i mean "The O.C."
I have to choose it for every single file.. kinda annoying ;)

also: Manual input possible? I have some seriez (belgian ones) with no reference whatsoever on the internet..

Ow.. having trouble with that '70s show because of the ' i think (was mentioned earlier on)

Nevertheless: great plugin, if not the greatest :)

for the apostrophe problem, try a search and replace in the third tab, replace ' with nothing. That may clear things up. iunno. I'm having some problems with more episodes that seem like thay should parse. I have all the seasons of futurama, and all parse except for like 4, which are in the same format as every other file...weird. I'll get some exampls up when I get home from work.

Ive got the same #header.label using 3DMP-Grey and Blue im noticing this header shows up in my music and my videos as the word "Share" and in My tv as "My TV" i would love to know how to get rid of this from all screens

I had the same prob, but sorted it by extracting the tvseries.xml file from the 3dmp skin zip (i.e - don't use the tvseries.xml that is included in the tvseries plugin zipfile)

The original tvseries.xml from 3dmp doesn't call that common.window.xml file.

cheers

Kirky, are you able to play the tv shows when using this skin. I cannot which is why i modified it - I don't have the header problem though. I'll look into the skin problem after the parser issues are resolved. Hopefully by then someone will have a definitive answer.

Cheers,

Salty.

    Instead of replacing with nothing, could it be replaced with html code for apostrophe & # 39; (note: I had to include spaces on this post between the & # 39; to show you)

    Salty - Will that work?

    I am sure Salty already knows this but just in case ;)

    The quoting issue is most likely b/c SQLite.
    You must escape a single quote with an additional
    single quote in the SQL query when using the database.

    So:
    Drew Carey's Green Screen Show - 01x01.avi
    Becomes:
    Drew Carey''s Green Screen Show - 01x01.avi

    SQL Results are returned formatted properly

    HTH,

    Thanks Salty - I haven't used episodeworld before, so didn't know how good they were with adding shows. I've submitted my missing ones, so that makes the plugin almost perfect for me :D

    Any chance you could add either a 'Delete' or 'Mark as Watched' to the right click menu so i can keep track of when i have still to watch.

    Thanks
