Create a file called metadata.properties in the BMD directory.
|
#402
|
|||
|
|||
Probably a stupid question
What is the BMD directory? I don't have a directory labeled this...
|
#403
|
|||
|
|||
if you're using the plugin it should be in the sage tv folder (c:\program files\sage tv\sage tv)
|
#404
|
|||
|
|||
Whatever directory the Batch metadata importer executable is located in if you are using the standalone version.
|
#405
|
|||
|
|||
Thx, I will give it a try
|
#406
|
|||
|
|||
One more question...
Is this what I am putting in the metadata.properties file:
provider=themoviedb.org-2,imdb.xml,imdb,tvdb.xml ??? |
#407
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running a plugin, then create/edit the metadata.properties in the root of the sagetv folder (ie, the folder that also contains, JARs, STVs, etc).
In the metadata.properties, add the following line Code:
/metadata/defaultProviderId=themoviedb.org-2,imdb.xml,imdb,tvdb.xml You can get a full list of the provider ids and properties from the wiki page. As I mentioned before, I'l ltry to ship the next release, "fully loaded", so that it will by default try all providers, unless you specify a custom list. EDIT: You'll also want to restart sage for the properties to get picked up.

DVD Profiler Support
Given that BMT has Local DVD Profiler support, I was going to remove the DVD Profiler Remote url support in the next build, provided no one has any real objections.

basically my first implementation for dvd profiler support was "screen scaping" a configured remote http:// url. Later, I added "Local" support where local mean that process the xml file directly (either on the same machine or another machine via a mapped driver or UNC).
So UNC will still work, since I consider that to be "local".

html-like tags coming from DVDProfiler
Is there a way to hide, or use, the html-like tags coming from DVDProfiler?
I get this tag in the SageMC movie's description: <i></i> When I look in DVDProfiler, sure enough, that part is italicized. (Or is there a way in DVDProfiler to not allow HTML-like tags in the description?) Thanks! |

Chris, I'll remove html tags from dvd profiler data as it's processed by the metadata tools. I'll try to get this into the next release, which should be comming out soon.

DVD Profiler Local help
Quote:
Looks like I jumped the gun though. I can't even get DVD Profiler Local to find a movie... (In DVD Profiler: I exported the data to the XML file, and yes, Barnyard is in there.) Here's the output when I run the bat file: (I also tried entering in a command line and got the same message.) Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\Chris Hallowell>cd \BatchMetadata C:\BatchMetadata>java -jar MetadataTool.jar --provider=dvdprofiler_local "E:\Encoded DVDs\Barnyard.mkv" Batch MetaData Tools (1.23) Search Results: Barnyard [q=quit, n=next (default), ##=use result ##, TITLE=Search TITLE] > Quote:

Chris... here's a couple of things to try for testing...
add --reindex --auto=false --prompt=true to the command line... this will force a reindex of the dvd profiler xml and make you select an item from the list, instead of automatically selecting an item. Then could you send me your log file and your dvd profiler xml? you can PM the xml file if you want... If I have the xml, then I can test on my side as well.

Sean,
I added the below options and retried Barnyard and it gave me the choice of 1 movie, Barnyard, and everything worked fine. Options added: --reindex --auto=false --prompt=true Attached is my zipped DVD Profiler XML file and log file for your review. |
#418

I have a feeling that the --reindex is probably the fix there... the dvd profiler xml is never reindexed unless --reindex is passed... this will be changed in the 2.0 release. In the 2.0 release it will auto detect that the xml has changed, and rebuild the indexes as needed.

I am looking for a way to automatically download fanart (backgrounds and banners) for recorded TV shows so that they can be used with Tiki's Fanart STVi for the default STV. There are three tools that I can use but none of them seem to be perfect:
- There is the BMT tool by babgvant. This is what I am using now but it does not support downloading banners. It also needs to be run manually. - There is evilpenguin's mediascraper tool but that does not support recorded TV (I think) and does not name the banner and background files they way Tiki's STVi requires. - Then there is this tool which does not seem to support banners. All of these tools have long forum threads so I may have missed something obvious. Is there a way to use any of these tools to get banners and backgrounds suitable for Tiki's import? I am not really interested in the .my or .properties metadata. (Tiki's import requires that banners are stored in one central folder, backgrounds are stored in another central folder, and the art files themselves are named the same as the show with a .jpg extension.) Ideally I would also like the tool to automatically get banners for all of the shows in the Program Guide (so the banners could be displayed while browsing the guide) but that is probably another discussion. Thanks, Tom
