It's a harmless message, that shows up because bmt is using the core phoenix apis, but there was no need to ship a phoenix configuration file. the missing xml file has no negative impact on bmt, other than the log message.

Understood - but it is causing there to be a lot of mailcheck.log files produced... which will eventually build up (small in size but a whole bunch of them). Is there a way of stopping it wihtout too much trouble?

Check out this post on configuring log4j.
I would also set all logging to warn or error, unless you need/want the debug logging. By default bmt usese the sagemc log4j properties, that uses a rotating log appender. If you just wanted a single file that gets overwritten each time sage starts.... change Code:
log4j.appender.log=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender log4j.appender.log.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd-a log4j.appender.log.File=mailcheck.log Code:
log4j.appender.log=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender log4j.appender.log.File=mailcheck.log log4j.appender.log.Append=false Code:
log4j.appender.log=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.log.File=mailcheck.log # Set the maximum log file size (use KB, MB or GB) log4j.appender.log.MaxFileSize=100MB # Set the number of log files (0 means no backup files at all) log4j.appender.log.MaxBackupIndex=5 # Append to the end of the file or overwrites the file at start. log4j.appender.log.Append=false

Different Show Names
One thing that I have noticed with BMT, and I'm not sure if it's a setting that I can change or not....
When I allow BMT to update my metadata automatically from the Sage Media Scan, the show info comes up "right" in my SageMC folder, the way I like it: Ghost Hunters - S05E23 - Pensacola Lighthouse If there is nothing on TVDB at the time of the scan, it comes up only as: Ghost Hunters - S05E23 - This is fine as it tells me that the database needs to be updated. Once it gets updated with the show information, and I do a manual update through SageMC, it comes in as: Pensacola Lighthouse It's still in the correct folder, but it's missing the "Ghost Hunters - S05E23" Is there a switch somewhere that I can change so that the manual scan works the same as the auto scan?

The mask for non imported recordings is Series - S##E## - Title and the mask for recordings is just Title. You can change these masks using the web ui. Go to Configure and search for mask. It should show all the various title masks.

That's the weird part... I'm not "purposely" importing anything as Sage recordings... I don't have a tuner or any Sage Recordings going on with this server. Poor quality recordings on my HD tv with only an analog tuner card... bla - long story.. LOL
I'll look at the other settings you mention, but I'm not sure that's the root cause. As I mentioned, the auto-scan function works perfectly, but the manual one (from within the folder - edit video info - fanart/metadata) is the one that gives me grief... - I just found the MASKS in the WebUI, and the Sage Recording TV Title Mask showed only the "${Title}" - so I set it to the same as "TV Title Mask" which is ${Title} - S${SeasonNumber}E${EpisodeNumber} - ${EpisodeTitle} Again - I come back to the question above... I am certain that I don't have the "import as sage recordings" set... it seems that I actually found that once and DESELECTED it. However, I'd be more than happy if you could point me in that direction to confirm - I can't find that now... Thanks!!

Hey Sean... just found it (didn't even notice the "search" box.. LOL)
It is NOT checked... I just tried now that I'm home from work, to use the manual SageMC option (edit video info, fanart/metadata) and it did the same thing with a BRAND NEW show. Could be a bug, maybe in that part of the add-in?

Automatic TV Movie Fanart Downloader for BMI (customized for 'your' TV lineups)
Sean and All:
I finally got a working prototype which automatically downloads all TV movie fanart for the TV lineups available in the sageTV Guide. I could do it for TV shows just as easy. This way, any movie/show people can see in their sageTV TV Guide should already have fanart. This should complete the missing gap in BMI. Even when you get automatic TV movie fanart to work in BMI 4, this still could be a valuable tool since your updated TV movie fanart could already be sitting there ready for you when browsing your TV Guide as soon as your TV lineup gets updated. I've only tested this under Windows/Jetty Webserver/ BMI 3.x. Currently, I need to make the prototype 100% automatic and 100% reliable (although, it seems to work pretty good). This should be a valuable tool for people who record TV Movies a lot who want to just "set it and forget it"... fanart just gets downloaded for everything in their Guide either Movies or TV or both ahead of time. -Michael Quote:

I notice it says that BMT is multi platform, windows/linux/mac, but I have tried to install on a mac to no avail. does anyone have any instructions on how to do this? I would be most appreciative! Thanks

@mkanet I'm not certain I'll use your addition, but could you post it so we have the option if we want?

Sure, that was my intention. However, the more interest I get, the more motivated I'll have to add options such as limiting the updates to specific generas for movies or TV, automatic scheduling, etc.
In it's current shoe-string and gum state, I'm surprised it works as well as it does. There are a couple of parts which I still need to automate. I'm also working on a completely different sageMC addon (which will be my first contribution). I hope to release it sometime this week; and, the TV Movie Fanart downloader following that.

the instructions should be the same... but what are your issues/errors?

I have 3.1 and 1.42 of Phoenix installed. The utility seems to be working fine but on a full reindex/scan/etc. no property files are getting created for my recorded TV files. I have been reading this thread for days now looking for a solution. I have noticed that most of my recording titles are really messed up no inside SageTV. Medium (2005) for all of this year's episodes. Exact same description for each one. But each is pointing to a different MPG file.

Try installing the newer, 1.44 phoenix.

Looks like sagex was not the current version either. I have updated that as well. I will let you know how it goes. |

I got more property files but not nearly as many as I should. It seems to be just the more recent files. I know I have read that there is a tool to touch the files so they are recognized as new but I did not think that needed to be done anymore. I thought BMT did that for you. They are working for DVDs in a separate WHS share.

Also, how are you doing the scan? command line? web ui? automatic scan via plugin? sometimes, I find using the commandline to be most effective for troubleshooting, because you can fully specify the file on the commandline and then review it's generated property file / log. commandline would be like... Code:
C:\SageTV\> java -jar MetadataTools.jar --metadataOnly "Full Path To File.avi"
