Ah ok....no they shouldnt be in sources. It is an error in the released file that the file is not present. That is why I posted a link to the file further up so people could manually download it.

Localte on your hdd where the banners for the series/seasons get downloaded. Then copy the png into that root folder. It should then work.

First i wanna thank also for this plugin that completes my HTPC.

Now, I tried to add series (DIVX) on DVD to database and have some problems.

I can add files from DVD to database and everything works fine as long as disk is in drive, but if disc is not in drive i can't see series in list of my tv series.

What I would like to do is that when I enter list of my tv-series I can select series that actually is offline and then MP asks me to put in correct DVD.

I cant see even the cover art of series if the disc is not in drive. In Database there is column for DiscID So could someone tell me how offline-link is created?

Thats exactly the feature i am hoping for. Or something that at least marks that episode as being backed up. What i have done in the mean time is make a place holder avi (about 700kB) which plays a movie which says "Please insert the correct DVD" then i renamed the place holder files with the correct file names of the episodes which are backed up so EVERYTHING including backed up episodes shows in the list. Only thing is, there is just no way for me to differentiate between whats actually there, and what is backed up to DVD.

i'd love to see an offline dvd episode option as well. something that would handle file-based dvds and also chapter/title for video dvds, and then mark these episodes with a dvd icon or something in the gui.
but i'm more than happy with the plugin as is - keep up the great work guys!

Just a note: Sh4nn0w is working on skin support for this plugin to the coming release of SimpleMP skin. It's always good to have more choices...

Thanks Inker, WeeTodDid and ZeFlash for this great plugin!

So there isnt such offline feature yet...damn What is the DVD discID for. And the "has online files"?

Has there been made any quide of all the settings?

 

[Inker]

Due to popular demand I will look into it. Probably though it will only consist of a dvd icon (similar to the hd one) and an info menu telling you to input the correct media when you try to play. Should be relatively simple to do.

DVD chapters/episode selection of ACTUAL video dvds are not included for sure, nor will you be able to start such a dvd from the plugin. However on input the dvd should autostart in media portal anyways.

Oh....very little time these days.....so don't shoot me if it takes a week.

I have a request. This plugin work perfectly, but for me some of my TV Series are on my computer and some of them are on original DVD. I would like to know if it's possible to add a function to define which episode are on DVD and when we want to launch it, MP said to insert DVD.

It's possible ?

Hi guys,

First of, great plugin - it's the barebone in my HTPC-system

So, i'd really like to see some kind of progress-indication on the current torrents that you're downloading. So i wrote a simple little dll which snatches the info out of the running uTorrent-process. Some nasty memory-pulling basically

The return-format is as follows: total torrents|torrentname;progress

If the uTorrent-process can't be found, it returns -1.

The classname is clsTp and the function is getTorrents().

I made the dll specifically for this plugin, so let me know if you want me to format this in any other way, xml maybe?

Dll is here,
http://public.tommie.nu/uTorrent/tpTorrent.zip

Lemme know if ya find any use for it

Excellent!

That is exacly the way MP behaves with movies when they are on DVD. I just manually edit the DB and add the DiscID name.

Waiting for a week or a month is nothing....My HTPC project has lasted now 4 years...I have all the time in the world to wait
