[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 969166, member: 18896"] Ok, I'm understanding your request better. [LIST] [*]Use NFO files to allow instant import = [url]http://code.google.com/p/mptvseries/issues/detail?id=272[/url] [*]Use ZIP files for offline TheTVdB alike import = [url]http://code.google.com/p/mptvseries/issues/detail?id=548[/url] [/LIST] The NFO file kinda covers the TheTVdB ID method that you mean whereas in MovPic you can make tt-ID part of filename and/or NFO and it will skip any search match suggestions. For right now, the ideal way for MP-TVSeries is to use a pre-lookup method that ensures the file you are importing is going to cause a 100% match (provided TheTVdB doesn't go down/fail/etc). You can use existing tools for this, such as SickBeard. They have a build in TheTVdB lookup method as well, so you will always be ensured that whatever file ends up in your import folder will match perfect without any interaction required. Other tools work as well, FileBot, TheRenamer, etc. What I did myself before was using a post-processing script that would only "move" mediafiles into the MP-TVSeries folder if they matched my pre-approved list of series that I wanted to get imported. This added a little bit of extra work, but guaranteed in a manual way that each file added would import flawless. So granted this would require a manual TheTVdB lookup and then add any new show to my script. Now I'm a happy SickBeard user and the "manual post-processing" option does it all for me automatic with lookups at TheTVdB, auto-rename into "Series Name - S01E01 - Episode Title.ext" format (this can be adjusted in SickBeard config, but I was lazy and went with defaults), which will get imported into MP-TVSeries perfectly. As for your artwork question, that goes back to the ZIP file request I put in myself, but that is currently not an option yet. The concurrent RDP is in use for me on Vista 64-bit Home Premium; I simply did it manually by using the RDP DLLs from the Microsoft update meant for Server 2008 (same kernel) and applied the missing registry keys and voilà there is a functional concurrent RDP for me. You are lucky in that somebody made an easy to use tool now for Win7.
