MediaBrowser

[frbas]

Wow guys, that was fast thanks. I will resize the images. There are some pretty large ones there. Do I have to resize both the folder and the backdrop images. Is there any way to make it so they metabrowser only downloads smaller images?

I am not able to find settingsun's random images just network and some other random ones but not studio images. Where are they?


One more problem. Battlestar Galactica (the new one) has all the current images and meta downloaded. When looking at all my TV show everything is good, but when I drill down to the season view (I only have season 1 currently) I have a backdrop and season image from the old series. I verified the images that are in the folder are of the new series. Where is MediaBrowser getting that from and how do I fix it?

Thanks guys, your great.

You're welcome mate.

If you are planning on using the movie library in Media Center then you might want to look at http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11232-media-center-setup-movie-library.htmlhttp://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/

I've just updated it with a wicked little app that batch resizes image files

Yea I wasent sure if they were there or not.

On the Battlestar Galactica thing I had the same prob so what you need to do is add (2003) to the title of folder and file names
i.e. "Q:\T.V. Shows\Battlestar Galactica (2003)\Battlestar Galactica (2003) Season 1\Battlestar Galactica (2003) 01x10 - The Hand of God.avi"

Sweet deal, worked perfectly. Now just to try Orbital Shark's resizer and see if that fixes MC Movies.

In reguards to the studio icons, are you looking for setttingsun's icons or should I keep looking my self?

Thanks.

t41 this is just a ruff idea. But something like this, or just single covers at random?

you know now that I think about it I'm almost sure that the studio icons are in my imagesbyname download if you haven't downloaded it yet do so and then browse through I really think their there.

Glad that worked for your tv show

you need anymore help let me know.

I was just going to tell you that your link on page 4 is broken and then I saw this post. Thanks, page 4 link to your IBN is still broken.

Thanks, I believe I have everything now.

EDIT: That gave me a lot of them but not all. How are these images created or are they floating around the internet? I think I will help make some of them if possible and share. Or I'll just wait until you fix your link and see what you have

I started to get a few requests at the AVS Forum so I thought I'd post them here aswell if anyone wants them.

• Movie Boxset Icon Gallery

• Download DemonSeed's Movie Boxset Icons

Could you make a box set for the Band of Brothers Series of episodes?

Yes I will but I can only find 2 different covers for it so if you know of 3 send them to me

Yes that looks TITS, sorry i been working on my books all day and haven't looked online at all.

BTW - Oribital or DS that resizing you are talking about, how's that gonna look when i eventually get my 60" wide screen up on the wall. Should I leave the large pics, and wait for a fix? Please advise how think best to proceed. Most all my files are large, but program maybe a tad slow - but not hanging up. Only thing mine does is not open movies into an expanded view. they stay about 1/4 the size of MB, not worried yet as I am loading individually until I get it perfect, and my big screen is on the wall.

Looks good, thanks t41


DemonSeed Come to think of it - single pics at random would look better , the more different movies in the pic the better - I leave up to your artistic discretion

I have 2 questions:

1. Not all movies have backgrounds? Can I do this manually?
2. I have downloaded actor pictures from this this thread but how can I put this in Mediabrowser?

Hi smuller,

Create a folder in c:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser called ImagesByName you can then download actor images into this folder

   Note

You need to create a directory for each actor

You can download MetaBrowser Here and once installed, in the setup you can state where your ImagesByName folder is. Once you have the data for each movie, you can click 'Download Actor Images'


MetaBrowser will also find backdrop & poster images too

 

[smuller]

Cool thhanks, will try it later

As far as the images by name folder DemonSeed has a link to his zip file with over 3000 actors and images in it already - no need to start from scratch. I would suggest reading over the 1st page quite slowly to take it al in as there is a lot of useful informaqtion on that page - as well as check this out - Media Browser BBS • View topic - TIP'S & HOW TO'S: MediaBrowser for Dummies

Down on that page is another link to the ever growing images folder. - cheers
Gonna add to it just copy your pictures into that folder structured like the rest of the actors folders are.

t41 what do ya think of this one?

Settingsun made some more at his thread. He gave me the timplate so I did this one plating around

Is there an issue with MediaBrowser and the Xbox 360? The media center is connected and running properly but it won't load MediaBorwser. Every time I try and run it, I get a error of "The file 'C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser\Styles_DoNoEdit.mcml' already exists." How do I get this issue resolved?

Will TVersity also still function properly either on the 360 or my DirecTV DRV?

try going to ProgramData/Media Browser and move the Styles_DoNoEdit.mcml into a empty folder then relaunch and see what it does

as for TVersity I dont know what it is so I cant help on that one
