You could also first install 2.0.11 then 2.1.1 that worked for me on 7260 x86

Yeah that was the trick i used for build 7201 and 7229 x64 but just cant get it to work on 7232 which is my favourite build thats the only reason why im bothering I've tried twice both clean installs but ive been using my ISO that i made from the vhd so im gonna try vasill's iso as i've read that there has been no issues with it at all.So hopefully 3rd times the trick.

 

[Cashis]

Yes get the new version 2.1.1 it fixed my icon in Media Center

where you refering to my post? and to build:7232 x64? just coz in ya stats it says ya using 7100.

On another note: How do I change the view in my diamond theme to have the cover flow an backdrop like Vanilla. Or is there only one view in diamond? Here are my screenshots that depict my issues

Just push up and the menu will pop up and you can change your view in the diamond theme.

Yes well I had the same problem as you even though I was using 7100 64bit and it fixed my problem so I expect it should fix yours even though your Win7 is later
As I first had the icon in v2.0.11 then lost it with v2.1 now back with v2.1.1

Got my issue sorted it is just that it was only ever sticking in the Extras section(even the latest media browser) so i used the registry hack to add it to the main menu and remove the Movies section as that is no longer needed.Thanks to all this completes WMC.

Really NOT feeling this new version of MB. The diamond theme locks up, and when it was working initially, there does not seem to be enough display options like there is in the vanilla theme. I am not knocking the app, just think I might revert to the prior version until this new one has more time on the "market". Maybe the bugs and kinks will get worked out soon. Actuially I might just keep it in Vanilla theme until a more current update is available that address the issues with the Diamond theme. Still a good app, just need some tweaking.

 

[DemonSeed]

Yea I'm a Vanilla Guy through and through. I like the Diamond but its not for me.

 

[zay]

Is anyone having the same issue I am having? (see screenshot) Basically when I am in the screen that is in the screenshot, I am unable to scroll thru all my movies.

 

[DemonSeed]

That only holds like the firs 10 or 15 most resent movies.

 

[zay]

Oh ok, I thought it scrolled thru all your movies. On another topic, have you used the starkcover.exe tool to change your folder images? If so, do all your covers get changed? I ran it numerous times, and it does not change all my images.

 

[DemonSeed]

Yes it changes all but if they are in more then one place you need to enter more than one location in the bat file. I just got a test ver today and it will do the thumbs images now too. It looks very cool.

Zay check this out. when you gave me the new camtasia it had a 2gb online free video service

ScreenCast This is my video on the Vanilla theme.
I think this will work good for what I need. Now just need to lighten the load on the rest of my dropbox so they will stop killing me.

DemonSeed - you have another link to that Add/Remove MyMovies.dna Batch Files zip file?

I have a new problem using CreatingShortcuts.exe I cant get one of my external HD folders to work in that program - i get a error like so:

Error : The system cannot find the path specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070003)
Creating Movie Links to E:\Film.
Clearing invalid Links from B:\Genre...
Processing Started at 6/28/2009 1:41:00 PM.
Total of 363 Movie Folders found at E:\Film


all other external HD folders work fine -

says the movies are there and then doesnt make shortcuts. I have the folder shared, i took ownership of the folder, dodnt know what that error means, except maybe something to do with the dna files.

Thanks for help, t41

@DS: I have added all my movie folders to the batch file, and it still misses some of the pics. I edit the script so it does multiple folders at one time so I don't have to keep changing the path to the movie folders. It does not miss a lot of them, but I will try to compare the missed ones to the ones that got changed, and try to see what is the difference. Off topic: what trailer downloader are you guys using that gets you the trailers for the movies currently in your library?

 

[DemonSeed]

DemonSeed - you have another link to that Add/Remove MyMovies.dna Batch Files zip file?

here you go.

@Zay the ones that are not getting changed, go to the folder and check the properties of the picture and make sure its not read only.
Stark will skip in it if so.

 

[zay]

What is the reason for removing the .dna files?

 

[DemonSeed]

He thinks they might be casing a conflict with another program.

 

[t41]

yeah - I was taking a guess, that error says it has to do with net framework 2, but the hotfix windows has listed won't work with windows7 - so it says.
I am using salami''s program and redoing it the slow way - lol
which wasn't that slow a few weeks ago.

forgot to mention - i was dealing with it on another thread - have updated to 7260 and when i placed new ehres.dll file - it started playing movies again - problem soved

let me know if you need help with the .net framework. There is a tool that you can use to remove all or a single .net framwork. I usually remove all of them, then reinstall them one at a time.

Why would you need to uninstall it if you then re-install it anyway? Windows 7 comes pre-installed with .net framework 3.5 anyway so there is no need to install anything.

 

[zay]

That might be true, but just because you have 3.5 does not mean that you have 1.1 or versions prior to 3.5. I used to think that if I have .net 3.5, I did not need 1.1 or 2.0 etc, but that is not the case. Some apps specifically need versions prior to 3.5. I am not sure what he is having issues with, but if it is a .net issue, then he nay need to remove them and then reinstall them. Like other apps or .dll files, .net can become corrupted, and need to be removed, and then reinstalled.
