Good one updated fine & the new date sort order I can see getting a hammering from the wife

I have just finished doing the updated skin ready for upload to the wiki & was checking/looking at it on the MVP to make sure all was in the right places etc. & wondered what "Yellow" "Category" did so popped onto the wiki to find out, you learn something new every day & I can see me using that one Anyway a real nothing one but just though I better bring it to your attention on the wiki you have

Overview Page

On the overview page regardless of what field is in focus:

* pressing Yellow(remote) Ctrl-Y(keyboard) pages forward/backward thru the category list
* pressing Red(remote) Ctrl-R(keyboard) imports new recordings into the MovieWiz db (if enabled in config)
* pressing Green(remote) Ctrl-G(keyboard) Opens password dialog (if passwords enabled in config)

Just thought you may want to add the new "blue" button to the list.

Wiki updated to include description for blue button. Thanks!

Hi JW,

I like the new sorting feature. It works well.

In the plugin, something has changed. The keys that change the category no longer work the same way. Left and right used to change the category. Was this selectable? I can't find an option for this in MovieWiz Manager.

You're right. I was playing around with the key mapping file and forgot to change it back.

Take a look at the key mapping file. gbpvr/KeyMappings/MovieWiz.xml. There are sections in that file that will control how keys are mapped for the 'horizontal list' (ie category list). You can comment out one section and enable the other to set the mapping back to the original way.

Hello,
It looks like the episode lookup feature doesn't work anymore in the newest version.
When I use
Family Guy | Death Has a Shadow
I get a list of movies that have nothing to do with this episode of Family Guy. When I use
Family Guy - Death Has a Shadow
I get a general info about the show Family Guy, but not the episode information. I also don't get an image.
I tried this with other shows - same effect. What to do?
Also, generating Thumbnails works only the first time. When I do this a second time, it cannot overwrite the previously generated jpeg files because they are still in use.

Regards,
Gert

You are right. Looks like TheTvDb.com changed their API. I'll work on this as time allows and update the WizWebHelper.DLL to correct. It may take a while as my free time is pretty slim at the moment.

I also don't get an image.

I'll take a look at the thumbnail logic as well, maybe something has broken there also.

Also, generating Thumbnails works only the first time. When I do this a second time, it cannot overwrite the previously generated jpeg files because they are still in use.

Not sure why the other files would still be in use. I'll try to recreate on my machine.

Hi JavaWiz,
The Change Location feature works good for .mpg files, but it doesn't work if the movie is a DVD structure. It would be nice if you could make it work for DVD structures too.

I'll take a look @ it.

UPDATE: Found bug, will be fixed in next version.
