Necro,

what did you enter in the "Parser Option" tab as the delimiter? You most likely have to take out the "E" for the second episode.

ltb this has been posted before on page 63. Anyway here is the solution to your problem

There are two possible issues for this:

1.) The plugin tries to get this banner picture from tv.com. Some of the shows just don't have one. You might want to check at http://banners.fluxxx.net for available banners (and alternatives to the ones from TV.vom)

2.) Sometime the plugin just doesn't download the banner picture correctly from TV.com. In this case you need to go to the homepage of this show on TV.com and then save the banner in this directory:
C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\TVSeries
The filename needs to be in this format: "<Showname> - Banner.jpg"

Hope that helps!

no u don't understand me (sorry, my english is not very good), the banner have been downloaded by the plugin and they are correctly named but some of them don't appear in the tv series'skin

the only reason i can think of such a problem is wrong banner naming under your Thumbs/TVSeries directory.

i.e. you have a series named Prison Break then the banner name under the directory should be Prison Break - Banner.jpg

Thats the only reason i can think that some of your banners will not show up.

Tried the no E in the second episode, and changing the parser line from &, to &. Still a no go.

And is there anychance of getting the 0.41 source so it can be updated? Or fixing 0.40 again and updating so the ' issue and the not holding the settings (reg or simple expression) issue can be addressed? Just curious if the plugin is dead in the water or has a chance :).

the 0.40 source are posted somewhere in this thread and you can get them. if you know your way around C# then you can modify it.

Hopefully this plugin will be picked up and added to the core MP. Its very popular and it will be pitty to die this soon.

Eh...I honestly don't have the time and haven't ever really worked in C before. I could prob do cosmetic changes, but thats about it...unfortunately.

I'm using this plugin for few weeks now and I really like it. I can't program or anything so I won't be able to help out coding.

CSI NY stopped working when trying to parse btw.

I have tried it on two different devices and get the same problem.
