[QUOTE="MacMini, post: 56676, member: 20587"] What is the best way to add content to the Movies database? If I add a show manually, MP will not recognize it until I scan the whole share where it resides, which takes ages. In addition, it screws up stuff that I had previously edited (it "corrects" it with wrong data from IMDB, or adds a double entry.) Also, if it doesn't find something in IMDB, it creates an "Untitled" thumbnail, which doesn't show up in the Edit list, so I can't edit it and fill in the missing information. So now I have a whole bunch of untitled icons for random shows (like all the Sopranos) which I cannot edit and about which no info is available indicating what they are. The only way to tell is to play each one, stop it, and then when I scroll over it shows the file name (from which I can guess what show/episode it is.) Not very elegant:-( Any ideas? May 30 nightly build, (same with Testrelease 0.2 RC4.) Using Razor, but same with all 16x9 skins. XP MCE (SP 2) Mac Mini Dual Core Intel 1.66 On-board video (Intel 950GM) 1072x600 NVIDIA Video and Audio Codec VMR 9 WMP 10 (but WMP 9 selected in MP (no WMP 10 choice)) No TV card [/QUOTE]
