    What does tthis process plugin?

    - creating "folder.jpg" if its needed and only one file are in the folder
    - picture size from the thumbnails are adjustable
    - own MTN parameter
    - video time where the thumb is taken can be entered
    - tv recording time where the thumb is taken can be entered
    - creates a small and a big file for tv thumbs
    - handles up to 4 video and 1 tv recording folder(s)
    - needs minimum resources
    - it just works

    Attached are the plugin, just copy the thumbnailer.dll in the folder "C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\process" and configure it in the plugin panel of your mp config.

    Yes i have seen this... but i need a solution that the thumbnails are created automaticly if a file is copied/changed/deleted etc... and there are no source code :(

    i copy the code after a few testings to a process plugin so that the thumbs are created in the background of MP :D

    have you tryed the test app, and works at your machine?

    thx

    super, läuft gut.:D
    was mir noch fehlt ist die angabe des thumb-ordner.

    ps: und dann müsste noch "jemand" das #TV.RecordedTV.thumb wieder umstellen vom chanel-logo
    auf die bilder, dann hätten wir ja das wieder was früher schonmal ging.

    :sorry:no english:sorry:

    Hi habe heute gerade mal den Code von TvPlugin angeschaut und den auskommentierten Code von der Thumb erzeugung gefunden (!)...

    Werde dies mal mit den Änderungen kompilieren und mal testen ob dies funktioniert ;)

    Ähhh, wozu benötigst du einen "thumb-ordner"???
    Die Bilder werden immer dort hin gelegt wo die Video Datei ist.

    thx

    Since this is the English part of the forum:
    super, is good.: thx:
    I was still missing is the indication of the thumb-folder.

    ps: and then would have to be "someone" # TV.RecordedTV.thumb change again, chanel-logo
    in the pictures, then yes we would have again what the past ever went.

    @diskeeper

    Hi have today just the code of TvPlugin viewed and auskommentierten code from the Thumb generation found (!)...

    Will this change with the times and compile times to test whether this works;)

    Ähhh what you need to get a "thumb-folder"?
    The images are always laid out where the video file.

    Die Bilder werden immer dort hin gelegt wo die Video Datei ist.

    naja, die funktion das von den aufnahmen ein bild erzeugt wird gab es ja schon mal in mp.
    diese bilder wurden, wenn ich mich recht erinnere, in einem speziellen thumb-ordner abgelegt.
    war bzw. ist im pfad
    C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Anwendungsdaten\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\tv\Recorded
    ja noch vorhanden und falls das mal wieder so werden sollte müsste man den pfad ja angeben.

    well, the function of the recordings that a picture is created, there were times already in mp.
    these pictures, if I remember correctly, in a special thumb folders stored.
    was or is in the path
    C: \ Documents and Settings \ All Users \ Application Data \ Team Media Portal \ Media Portal \ thumbs \ tv \ Recorded
    still exist and if so which again should be the path should be yes.
    for Spragleknas, goggle translate:D

    I have found the code place where are the thumbs displayed in the tv recordings, its in the file TvRecorded.cs from TvPlugin on Line 791

    it sould instead of this:

    Code:
    string strLogo = Utils.GetCoverArt(Thumbs.TVRecorded, Utils.SplitFilename(Path.ChangeExtension(aRecording.FileName, Utils.GetThumbExtension())));

    be this:

    Code:
    string strLogo = Thumbs.TVRecorded + @"\" + Utils.SplitFilename(aRecording.FileName).Replace(".mpg", ".png").Replace(".ts", ".png");

    ...and shure the thumbs should be under the folder "..\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\tv\Recorded"


    i can compile the plugin but the list is every time empty :confused:
    the list ist also empty if i download the latest svn and do only compile it with vs2005 pro...(!?)

    that do i'am wrong - or how to compile the tvplugin correctly?

    thx
