(original thread) MP-TVSeries (5 Viewers)

[Bingle]

Two quick bugs I noticed after installing the latest version:

The green loading icon seems to appear sometimes when browsing the list of episodes in a series, and then the browsing becomes unresponsive :-( I have to back out all the way to the main MP menu and go back in in order to continue browsing. Does anyone else have this issue?

The series seems to be ordered alphabetically by the user-supplied name, not the database name. That is, I have a folder "Deep Space Nine" for a series. That matches "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" in the online database, and that's the name that's displayed. However, it's in alphabetical order in the "D" section. A minor bug, but it would be nice to sort the series by the displayed name.

accidental removal of the banners of a series while the series is still in the database results in an error in the MP config

This is a really good plugin and i use it every day


Id like to see he ablity to stack videos (puting -cd1 , -cd2, -cd3 etc at the end so media portal treats them as one movie) in the tv series plugin , would this be posible?

 

[chenks]

is that suitable for a tv show/episode though ?

give an example of where this would need needed for a tv show.
i can see the need for it in the movies/videos section.... but for tv episodes ??

New release with mainly bugfixes and some new stuff Inker threw in:

0.9
- added try/catch around the banner loading in the configuration window to prevent crashes when the file isn't found.
- inker: fixed issue with playing files in locations without write acess
- inker: Added option to display a random Banner
- inker: added an option to test in a file is HD or not
- Log added in forom subs retriever
- the MP choose dialog now displays the item being matched instead of the (static) title. It helps

As usual, available in the download section once it will be approved, or directly from sourceforge.

Sorry it took so long, with the holidays and a new born daughter my schedule doesn't really allow me to spend more time on the plugin. But don't worry I'll try to keep on top of things even if no new features are getting done for a while.

Hej.... we are already glad someone is working on this great plugin!!!
Congrats on the newborn! May you spend more time on her than on the plugin!

Great work though....

Should there be a dll file in the release folder. My download from sourceforge didn't have one. Thanks for the update and wanted to ask again what might be my problem with not being able to delete episode files using the pop up menu. Thanks again.

For example i have battlestar galactica's mini series and its still part of the tv series so i dont want to put it with my movies.
Its been riped off the dvd and because its 3 hours long it got split into two 700mb chunks.

So what i want to be able to do is when i star playing the first part as soon as its finished it moves onto the second an i want it to be just listed as one episode in the list.

and i have exactly the same problem with farscape peacekeeper wars

I can understand if theres not alot of people that would use it but it wouldnt hurt anyone else if you had the option to use it.

 

[chenks]

is the 3 hours 1 whole episode or is it split into episodes ?
would it not better to rip it from the DVD in episode format (if indeed it is in episodes)

Battlestar galacticas miniseries was shown on tv as 4 episodes but on the dvd its 1
