Support / Re: How to load movies without pictures
« on: June 10, 2013, 05:07:42 am »
First, thank you nostra for the best movie database.
I have the same issue as Nautilus. PVD 1.0+ imports all files as cover art. I created a script to import from Media Browser movie.xml files. Folder.jpg is imported as the cover and backdrops are imported as screenshots. With PVD 1.0+, I have to manually delete backdrops automatically imported as covers. A preference check box to shut off automatic import of JPEGs in the folder with the movie file would be appreciated.
Another issue with scripts scanning local network files, is that a UNC path like
\\media1\movies\somemovie(2010)\movie.xml
will not work. The server folder has to be mapped to a drive letter like this
S:\somemovie (2010)\movie.xml
If the script function GetDownloadURL returns a UNC path, "http://" is appended to the beginning and the final path will be like this:
http://\\media1\movies\somemovie(2010)\movie.xml
"http://" could be appended by script code if required.
Media Browser import script attached for anyone that wants it.
Regards,
Joel
