    For MovingPictures, to disable scraping you need to do a database change. Open movingpictures.db3 and select table settings, search for key = "importer_gui_enabled" and once found, change value to False. Similar to TVSeries, you now need to import manually newly added movies on your master PC only.

    Yes!
    Thanks for that clarification (y)

    But has the "issue" with not been able to disable the import trough Moving Pictures GUI, addressed to the developer of Moving Pictures?
    Because this is a "problem" for everybody that uses MPSync as I understand it...

    @m3rcury: Additionaly to my problems with the error message from post #413 I now encounter
    problems that mpsync doesn't save my thumbs folder under folder set.
    After saving a folder set and reopening the configuration the folder set list Is empty again.
    I would be grateful for any help.

    RicoHTPC, when you want to save changes to folder sets, apart from creating the folder set name, you need to do the appropriate setup and apply these changes as well by pressing the button marked in red in the below image.

    If you haven't done this, can you give it a try?

    Yes I did that but without success. On odd thing I came across is that when I now create my folder again it will display
    the correct path automatically?! Anyway, after saving and closing everything is gone.
    When I try to sync right after creating a new folder (without closing mp sync) it then uses the folder to sync it.
    The logs provide nothing usefull I would say but if you want to I can provide them.

    RicoHTPC, can you provide the debug logs so that I can have a look?

    Well... Playing around trying to get some logs for you with different conditions I now managed to let mpsync save the settings.
    When I changed the database settings from "specific databases" to "all" it then kept the folder settings as well.
    And the error message from the start is also gone. :)
    Funny thing but as long as it works now that's fine for me.

    For TVSeries, disabling of scraping can be done by going into the "General" tab and un-check "Watch my Import folders for changes automatically". Switching off this setting means that you have to manually import the newly added series on your master PC, then MPSync will propagate to the other clients.
    For MovingPictures, to disable scraping you need to do a database change. Open movingpictures.db3 and select table settings, search for key = "importer_gui_enabled" and once found, change value to False. Similar to TVSeries, you now need to import manually newly added movies on your master PC only.

    Hi m3crucy...
    Is it possible for you to have this disable as options in the MPSync program?
    Since it is kind of easy to disable MP TV-Series but Moving Pictures is more "advanced".... ;)

    barneh, I will look into it and possibly add an option to disable the scraping of these other plugins. Give me some time to work on it.

    Why the path is not available? I choose it to set up, the path is visible, the database shows when starting synchronization, nothing happens.
