Scanning ISO-Files
nostra:
Try getting a newer version of mediainfo.dll. Maybe you have the old one installed.
CAD:
Seems mediainfo.dll no longer supports does not iso, img etc containers:
Found this:
Note: Disc images are not supported using MediaInfo.dll so meta data will not be scanned for file types such as iso, img, bin, etc. using the version that's included in the Extras packages. v0.7.11 of the dll does scan disc images for meta data, but it is more than likely incorrect (a "false-positive", as described by the developer of the MediaInfo library). If you would like to use it anyway, download one of the following and extract MediaInfo.dll from the archive into the Bin folder of your Ember installation (overwriting the current dll):

Appears earlier versions (0.7.11) may support this.
Still investigating....
EDIT
Have checked mediainfo site - ISO is not supported it is on his TODO list though ;)
More info on mediainfo site:

If you really need to have media info, best way would be to extract iso's and store them in Foldername/videos_ts folders.
Scanner will pick them up and populate video info.
--- Quote ---Approx. 250 of these files respectively the data sets in PVD contain video and audio stream details. And I didn't insert this details manually.

Maybe you had them as video_ts folders and later converted them to .ISO?
I have run a quick test and extracted movie into .iso directory and rescanned:
PVD picks up the media info from video_ts files and also updates the path:
U:\movie\Nine Miles Down (2009)\Nine_Miles_Down.iso|U:\movie\Nine Miles Down
I guess if .ISO is not there then path will only contain one entry:

I will investigate with the hints and keep you informed about my results...
Thanks

Hi,
Here my results regarding the media scan inside an ISO container:
1) The last mediainfo version with ISO container support is version 0.7.11 (as CAD described already)
2) PVD (current version 0.9.21) doesn't support the media scan inside ISO container
- tested with the in the package installed mediainfo.dll (ver. 0.7.25) see point 1)
- also tested with earlier mediainfo.dll than 0.711
3) older versions of PVD (I tested with 0.9.8.20 and 0.9.71) scan and report the audio/video details inside the ISO container
So in the moment the once possibility to include the audio/video details of an ISO container in the database is:
- mount the iso file as virtual drive
- scan the VIDEO_TS folder
- manual remove the *.vob entries from the file path
