couple of MC questions

[AJ Bertelson]

1)How can I customize the myvideos menu to display two different sub folders that lead into two different folders?
Rite now sage is configured to import both movies and TV shows folders. When I go to myvideos sage displays the contents of the movies folder and the content of my tvshows.

To explain on this more, the movies folder is arranged as follows
movies/all my dvd rips and recorded movies
The Tvshows folder is arraged like this
tvshows/drama/drama shows
tvshows/comedy/comedy shows
tvshows/cartoons/cartoon shows

I attempted to move all my movies into a movies/movies/all my movies type of heirarchy but when I went back to sagemc it didn't display it as
movies
drama
comedy
cartoon shows

instead it just displayed them as it has done all a long. This may have been do to the fact that I didn't let it rescan but I tested it on a movie and it worked.

2)has anyone had any difficulty getting comskip to work with WHS? I have added unc paths through sagetv detailed setup of my recording directory but I still can't get it to work on my clients. It works on the server, well it works in so much that sage identifies it through the interface by showing the CS symbol, but none of my clients work.

I think if you let the scan finish you will be fine. This is how I had my SageMC configured: Everything in a root Videos folder, using the file system view of course.

I believe at one point I found I needed an extra folder layer in there though I was never sure why... So I ended up with \\WHS\Videos\TV Shows\TV Shows

well it seems to have worked for all the DVD rips, but now all the .ts recordings from my HD-PVR show up in the parent directory of myvideos.

The .ts recordings are in their own folders.

One step forward one step back

Did you try throwing the extra folder in there, e.g., ..\TV Shows\TV Shows?

yes I created that this morning so it fixed my \tvshows\dramas, cartoons, commedy etc...

The .ts recordings though that I have in the \movies directory are movie recordings from sagetv.

Maybe I'm missing something, but did you try the same thing on the Movies folder?

are you running bmt 3.1 and SageMC 6.3.9a?

If yes you need to upgrade to the latest version of SageMC (currently 6.3.9_b19) and phoenix v1.44 after installing SageMC 6.3.9a. There was a bug that BMT 3.1 uncovered in SageMC 6.3.9a where all videos showed up in the root folder for file system view.

that seemed to fix it, now onto comskip.

It worked for a couple of programs last week but most of them the clients don't identify the comskip file even though it is in the recordings.

I have comskip monitor set to \\servername\\video in the properties files but it comes as f:\\servername\\video in the webpage interface.

f: is where sagetv is located.


Also fanart got completely changed in the last year or so correct?
