Need 2 installations of Moving-Pictures (1 Viewer)

[Dave Lewis]

First of all, huge congratulations to all that built this plugin!

I have this installed and it works brilliantly with my 600+ movie collection. Thing is, I also have all the UFC events and would like to install another copy of Moving Pictures so I can have the fights and the movies kept seperate.

Is there any way of doing this?

Many thanks in advance for your help

You can use the category filtering in v1.0.x beta, the FAQ explains this.

Set up a new category UFC events, adjust filter to show all the movies with FullPath containing the foldername that you stored all the files in and then adjust the filter on all the other categories to exclude them. To exclude them you can also use the Parental Control filters, which in some cases works easier.

Or just use the standard MyVideos for the UFC fights, thats what I do

Thanks for the input guys.

I've downloaded the beta and had a look at the filtering but it seems a little advanced for me, I'm only a simple bus driver! lol

I'll stick to using the standard "my videos" section for my fight collection, shame you can't rename it like moving-pictures though.

You can rename anything you want if you use the basichome just edit the basichome.xml to what you want

I explain it via a picture how-to in the https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...-frequently-asked-questions-read-first-76721/

No reason to ignore it because it looks complicated. Otherwise help me improve the FAQ from your point of view on the parts you don't grasp.

Thank you for that, the FAQ was really helpful.

Have managed to sort out the categories/filtering and even managed to seperate the kids' animated films and pin code everything else.

Wasn't that hard once I looked properly, big thanks for all your help guys, much appreciated.

Anytime you have questions ask here, you dont have to worry about people criticizing you for not knowing something here. This is a great forum with users that have respect for people and are willing to help others since we were all new to this at one time unlike most others.
