Do you get the same experience using the default sagemc video library and file-system?

Am I doing something wrong, or does it not work that way?

Yes that is how is should work what do you get using the default sagemc video library.

Hi,

I just upgraded to 4.01 from 4.00 and now I have one TV episode showing up in my Sage Movie Wall. This isn't an imported TV episode, but rather a regular Sage Recording. Anyone else experiencing this? I don't have any of the filters set off or anything like that.

I am also having the same issue. If I select All Videos everything shows up but if I select File System I get nothing at all. This occurs in all views. Everything works great when I use the default SageMC videos screen. Everything worked fine in SMW until 4.01. Is there a link to the 4.00 download version.

Those having a issue with file system view open options up and make sure you are running version 1.44 of phoenix I am thinking that is the issue

Also,

I noticed that Clerks II gets organized before Clerks on the wall. Is that as intended?

I downloaded and applied the 1.44 version. It looks like things are back to normal. I guess I should have read in the notification thread that 1.44 is required. Would have saved a lot of headaches.

I also wanted to take a few seconds and thank you for all your hard work on this. It has really increased the WAF and I couldn't be happier.

2 gig was stupid. It made it even more unstable (but I should have realized that).

So, should I re-run the transformations? I created my own menu option called "MOVIES" instead of using a custom screen for the "My Videos" section. That wouldn't seem to make a difference, would it?

Yes 2gb is bad idea . Did you let the transformations finish first ? I recomend doing them on your server and watching the sagetv process to see when it is complete not ideal but works.

Making a custom screen shouldn't/doesn't have any affect

Glad to hear and thanks.

I don't set up my server instance of WHS to reflect all of my SageMC/SMW changes I make on the HD-200, so if I only have one Hd-200 and my server is on WHS and I run it overnight on the HD-200, I should be good, right (as far as letting the transformations complete)?

correct should be good.

I think this may be an issue with some I may stop it from running in the background to make sure people finish.

And just to be clear, while it is running in the background, I should make sure I'm not doing anything else until it completes?

Correct. If you try you could/will lockup the extender or make it shutdown.

Also I recomend shuting down the extender and restarting the service on the server after something this processor intense. (also I still recomend doing them on the server as it is faster but you don't have to)

Is there a way to trigger it on the server without loading SMW on the WHS instance of Sage?

edit: now that my brain is thinking clearly, this isn't anything more than loading my currently used .xml stv file on the WHS instance and then running the transformations from there, right? Is that what you mean by "running it on the server"?

yes thats what he means

[ohpleaseno]

So I did that, but the scaling and transformations only lasted about 3 seconds each (I was watching my processor usage). Was it supposed to last longer than that? I'm assuming then that all of the transformations and scaling was done right thefirst time.
