Hi Wolfzz - the latest version is v2.1.1.0 (called FIRESTORM), and is downloadable from here.

You need to add in the plugin_info.xml file to MediaBrowser and Vanilla 2.0 should become available.

See here on how to do that.

Hope that helps.

Thanks CBers I will give it a go by the way do I have to uninstall the older version of Media Browser or just install over the top.
Cheers

Hi Wolfzz - no, straight over the top will be fine.

Remember what your current settings are, as the new version does not seem to retain them for some reason !!

Hi guys, thanks to this board I have been able to run mediabrowser for all my movies and videos. However, is anyone using it for their recorded TV as well? I have seen people using it for tv boxsets and series, but how about regular recorded TV from media center? Can media browser be used to automatically get images and data from the wtv/dvr-ms files?

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm a retard. I didn't realize there already was a DVR-MS plugin.

Hi Guys How do you install james971's

EHS Initial Icons

Cheers

 

[DemonSeed]

use the config tool for all your vf's and to use them for plugin's icons, you you need to have the imagesbyname setup. C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser\Imagesbyname\General\Film Trailers\folder.png
and so on for each plugin name.

 

[Wolfzz]

Thanks Demonseed

Now I have this already C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser\Imagesbyname
and I just want to set up say Blu-Rays, Chick Flicks, DVD Movies etc do I just make folders up with those names and put the folder.png in them or do they all have to go in a folder called General, as my Imagesbyname folder has all the people's names.
Cheers

 

[DemonSeed]

The IBN has a new setup
imagesbyname\General <--- Podcasts, Film Trailers etc. icons go here
imagesbyname\Genre <- Says it all
imagesbyname\People <--- All Actor Images Now Go Here (must also redirect meta<browser/> to this)
imagesbyname\Studio <- Says it all
imagesbyname\Year <- Says it all

To add icons to your movies tab, or any other tab that you created with the config tool. You use the config tool to set those icons. Run the tool and click on your Movie tab on the left, then on the right you will see ADD Image. Press that button and set the icon. Then move to the next and so on.

I Think I have got it thanks for your help DemonSeed just still working on the People Folder

 

[CBers]

I have set up MB to have folder icons for my TV, Movies and Music folders, but I can't seem to find how to set them for the trailer plug-ins.

Is it possible ??

Also, a general question, but what backgrounds do people use on the initial MB menu ??

Just looking for some inspiration.

Has WEATHER been removed from FIRESTORM ??

TIA.

Yes just create a folder inside the imagesbyname\General, name it "Film Trailers" or what ever name you have given the plugin . And drop in the folder.png

I have a few setup here to choose from if you like. Dropbox - Photos - Secure backup, sync and sharing made easy.

Has WEATHER been removed from FIRESTORM ??

TIA.

Yes and No. It was removed from the Theme's but not from the core of MB. So if any new theme builders want to us it, they still can.

 

[Wolfzz]

Hey James971 if you are around on this forum I love your Gene Icons but is there any chance to can make the General One's like New Releases, HD Movies, DVD Movies, Blu-Ray Movies, TV Series, Chick Flicks, IMAX etc.
Cheers

Keep up the good work

 

[DemonSeed]

Wolfzz, I don't think he makes it over this way. But I will pass along your requests for you.

EDIT: Request's forwarded

Movie Boxset icons By Big ArrickSon & DemonSeed

I have a treat for you guys. I have been very busy making a new collection of Icons to be used for Movie Boxset Collections.

And Here it is.

First things first - if your interested in using Boxsets with Media Browser you need to read this thread by DemonSeed
How To: Set up a Movie Boxset Library using Shortcuts

Till we get the new hosting setup I have moved these over to my dropbox. This is is release (v176x2.5).

ClearCase Boxset Download

Diamond Boxset Download Coming Soon

Now we are still getting tons of requests and we need some help from the community, please PM DemonSeed if your interested in helping with the assembling side of this project, this is getting to be to much of a time consumer for me and Demon to keep up by ourselves. Especially since we now have a 3rd design style to get put together.

Also if you are a graphic artist, and you are willing to help out with custom covers/spines/discs please let us know, as of right now we have been searching the internet, taking images and cleaning up. If we cant find something we have been creating them ourselves which is also a very time consuming side of this project.

Here is the list of whats included.

Requests

If you are requesting a new set to be added, especially Director/Studios, please request the movies you would like to be used on the discs, and what you would like done for the cover. Also if you could provide links to an image that you found already on your own that would be extremely helpful. I'm pretty good at finding artwork to use, but if you want something specific please make sure your requests are as detailed as possible.

On a personal note, I want to say thank you to DemonSeed for helping me get this entire project off the ground. Without him this would have never happened, between the layers, .psd's, paint files, disc work, and spines. I was just the image grabber, helped cleaned up images and create customs and assembled. Not saying that part wasnt hard or important, but this was definately a two man project. DemonSeed deserves a lot of love for getting this up and running.

Thanks,
Big ArrickSon

Hi DS.

I have been trialling Media Center Master for the last week, to fill in the gaps that Meta<browser/> has, and found that MCM can download trailers for the movies in my collection.

That works fine, but Media Browser doesn't quite work once the trailers have been downloaded.

They are downloaded to the same folder as the movie file, so within MB, there are 2 video files, and I do not get the TRAILER icon in the details of the movie.

Do the trailers need to be names something other than trailer.mov, or do they need to be in a seperate sub-folder ??

TIA.

EDIT: Just found TrailerMove.exe here.

Latest version is v.06 here.
