    could u add the refresh button in the setup to the GUI side bar ?
    so I dont have to run setup to refresh the series

    Well the refresh button in setup is just refresh of the information already stored in the database. This isn't what you mean - right?

    You mean, that if you put new files into the dirs added - you can get these added, if you press this button...?

    I have added the ability to import videos from withing Media Portal itself.
    If you testing, please remember to copy the TVSeries.dll and TVSeries.XML file.

    Here are some Screenshots:

    Will the OSD be overscan friendly in the end?

    It will be the same as My Videos... Is that Friendly?

    When you have the ability to monitor the folder an take an action based on changes, could you also delete from database when movie is deleted?

    I'll work on this very soon. The problem is that if you store all your video on a Network Drive and that drive is not available... you would have to re-import all your stuff.

    WeeTodd,

    Your work on this plugin is simply great, bow down bow down :)

    I take it can use the same DB for 0.25 and i don't need to rebuild!

    One little gimmace is that the show banner doesn't fill all the space
    at the top (there is a gap on the right), this looks wierd.

    The image size is too big for the allocated space so when it scales this is
    just how it fits, still I got around this by resizing the banners to 554*95 and
    it seems to fill the whole space :) not a biggie to be honest.

    Can't wait to see what comes in the future ;) .... G

    I am very impressed with your progress !

    Very very nice. :D

    Could u make the box where the series info is a bit smaller.

    say on the left 10% and on the right 10%

    aasmund Nordal :

    I have a similar problem, the thing is that Windows basically has a problem, when you boot up your machine any network connections are in a "disconnected state".. I had to write a litte batch file to get around this.

    I downloaded a simple DOS utility called holdit (like pause but with a counter timedown)...
    Then when the machine reloads i run the following batchfile

    net use p: /d (to actually disconnect the drive)
    holdit 6 (wait a few seconds - for all the drivers to come up)
    net use \\10.1.1.8 p: /persistent:yes

    This way on loadup i disconnect and reconnect the network drive in a persistent state so that when media portal auto-load (a few seconds later) the network drive is automatically connected and my tv shows / movies / music are all ready to be played ...

    Cheers

    its getting better and better all time time.

    I tested the latest version and it is VERY VERY GOOD :D

    1 problem with the GUI import is that it works very well. But Its difficult to see when the importing is done.

    Perhaps a progress button during the import sesion or keep the import dialog pop-up screen ontop while importing

    2 during the pop-up and import I get the question of specifing the filname. But the filename due to the long path is not visible in the header of the import window

    Perhaps make the text inside the green header the box scrollable
