slick skin metagrabber and moviewiz question

[tvshowman]

Hi JavaWiz,

I finally tried the latest version of your matagrabber after having many problems everything seems really good with this vertsion. Since we last talked a month ago you had made an update to metagrabber so I scannned a folder with 200 movies and I selected the "put data in file" option and scanned and discovered that most of the movies in the directory lost the jpgs and some of the tags were now wrong so I gave up for a few weeks. But I tried your latest version and I manually fixed all the movies and jpg's and changed the files to "read only" so I won't have to worry about mucking with them anymore since they are all now correct in that dir.

now brings me to my latest dilemma. I used to use the slick skin for the metadata reader but there is no delete file button and since I auto convert my files to a ffdshow codec I usally end up with doubles one mpg and one avi if I happened to watch part of a show while it is encoding it won't auto delete these afterwords since they were locked. So I went back to the blue skin which has the delete button in video library so I can find and remove these unwanted files. Now I also have my movies in moviewiz but many of the tags are wrong or incomplete since I never fixed any using moviewiz and I am trying to figure out how I can get moviewiz to use the saved metawizgrabber info we created using your new tool and use that in moviewiz instead of what I already have there? I def don't want moviewiz to make an internet search since I had to fix so many from before so I would love moviewiz to use the info we already grabbed from the grabber and the ones I have corrected.

I can delete the moviewiz database and start from scratch so that is no problem. I would like to try to import one of my directories.

any suggestions?

thanks!

I don't think there is an easy way to do this right now.

I will attempt to add some features, so you can leverage the WizMetadataGrabber output and import into MovieWiz, and potentially visa-versa as well.

Thanks! Much appreciated!

I did some thinking and realized I can start from scratch and use metawizgrabber to create the tags for the files in the ntfs stream and use its import feature to create an xml file to import into gbvpr and I recall reading somewhere that moviewiz can import files that are already in gbpvr's record directory and it will use the metadata if it exists in the movie file?

So in my test I used one directory that has about 240 movies and made sure the metadata is correct and made the xml file and imported that into gbpvr without a hitch and it looks great. I downloaded the latest moviewiz and it won't run...

So I removed all the movie files and gbpvr only has about 70 files that are real recordings and not moved and altered records.

same error so I post the info here

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I think if I can get moviewiz to load that it will simply read the metadata from the stream you created with all the correct details...

Ok, I'll take a look at this for next release. I have an update to WizMetadataGrabber, then this will be the next item to work on.

Sweet!

Thank you so much for so many great tools!

I use searchwiz everday as my tv guide for upcoming shows starting next hour hehe

Cheers!
