Support / Re: Zelluloid plugin not getting description
« on: October 11, 2010, 09:33:06 am »
Hi!

I already asked that some months ago and Rick had the solution. Unfortunately the correction of the script is not done in the delivered scripts so be aware to make the changes after each update of PVD:
in zelluloid.psf there is a line looking like:
 mX[ 47 ] := '<DIV CLASS=bigtext>';
this line should look like:
 mX[ 47 ] := '<DIV CLASS="bigtext">';

hth, regards,
Obelix

hey! thanks a lot. Doing another Collateral Damage test (this should be used as a new phrase :-D ) everything works fine.

btw: I have one question: can I affect the order of the scripts? what would be cool is, first do a cover search on Amazon, of nothing found use the cover from [whatever i.e. zelluloid].

here comes the zelluloid result for Collateral Damage.
I started PVD in debug mode, added a new movie master and had the buttons set to zelluloid, amazon and something for me not readable (and not selected) for the cover.
the result is no description (see screenshot) and I also attached the log.
I missed to make a screenshot from the New Movie Master dialog, but you can imagine how it looks from the description.

I will try Collateral Damage to read from Zelluloid.

E: is a hdd containing backups from my DVDs for watching on a media station (popcorn hour) over the network. So the directory names come from ripping the DVDs. But as I understood giving them the correct movie name gives PVD a good chance to get all information from the net automatically.

I just made a test.
Collateral Damage works perfectly when adding manually by Movies -> New Movie Master
and also works perfectly with a subdir called "Collateral Damage" and a fake AVI within having the same name.

So this seems to be a problem of my directory names, which come from reading the DVD.

only thing stays open is the Zelluloid/OFDB thing not getting content by zelluloid and sometimes getting advertisement messages instead of movies from ofdb...

@nostra
ok,
1. the step by step description:
- opening PVD
- select Tools -> Scan folders...
- answer all questions - select the right movie when a dialog pops up

2. - 5. see post above

6. Windows 7 Version 6.1 Build 7600

if I forgot anything, tell me the what information to add

@rick
did you add the movie by Movies -> New Movie Master or did you make a search within a folder?
I think the results differ from method to method, but I will try that explicit...

since reading some posts I understood the difference between checked and filled. So it could/should be ok, if the settings are filled.

The file names are directly from the DVDs, so I did not make them myself, and so I did not make any attempt to correct anything.

I did not change any settings according to fields or visibility... So in editmode are fields are empty (In my "real" database, not in the test I made this morning) I fill the movie content by copy and paste from the zelluloid web site.

what I recognized is, that OFDB mostly fills in the content, except the error showed up like in "foundfirsterror.jpg". But zelluloid never fills in any content, but other information, if available.

thanks for your reply and your help!

OK, just updated to 0.9.9.19

for zelluloid (and ofdb) plugin all checkboxes are checked. that means, also movie content should be loaded.
On en existing movie ("Engel sucht Liebe") I selected <Import><[DE] Zelluloid> and ..... ta ta ta - nothing ;)
So I tried to add this movie manually again. But Neither ofdb nor zelluloid plugin gets content. BUT going to the zelluloid web site I see (and copy/paste) the movie content.
strange...

Hi!

maybe I do something wrong, but I cannot see what:
I make a directory scan and hope PVD will add all movies. For the most movies I get 2 entries, for some 3, seldom I get just 1. Ok, so I will delete the additional entries. None of the entries has a movie content description (neither zelluloid, nor OFDB works), so I have to add the content manually from the internet. Sometimes the poster comes (but only if available on amazon, not if available on zelluloid).
To get the content sometimes "automatically" I have to make an import from OFDB (nothing comes) then zelluloid (nothing comes) then again OFDB and when I'm lucky, I get the content.

what the hell is going on? this is not what I expected to do to add all my movies... And it cannot be the way others add their thousands of movies ;)

PDV Ver. 0.9.9.18 (Portable)
OFDB 0.4.1.0
Zelluloid 0.1.0.5


thanks for the help!

...I have to. I cannot disable the plugin. One plugin per category has to be set/enabled... I could only select another (but not zelluloid.de)

Can someone help me configure right whatever I have wrong?

I have PVD 0.9.9.18 with Zelluloid plugin 0.1.0.5

When ever I want to add a movie PVD tries to get the poster from amazon (though it could get the poster from zelluloid.de) and I never get movie content from zelluloid.de. To get content I have to use import->OFDB.com, which often has not the information (especially for german productions)
I really like PVD (otherwise I wouldn't have written the mobile client) but some things are not intuitive to me (i.e. why I do only get english posters from Amazon. I have about 5% german posters and the rest is english/french/whatever)

thanks in advance!

To get the movie details you have to select the movie (by clicking the movie) and then slide from right to left to go to details (and slide from left to right to leave the details)

the long time for loading leads from XML. I will make some tests to recode the XML to a flat file. Maybe the loading time is shorter then...

Here we go with version 2.0 of mobilePVD.
It now uses a virtual mode from the SliderList, so I do not have to prepare all the items after loading, but on demand. That enables mobilePVD to read many more movies, but has some restrictions also.

By now it would be great, if the version could be tested. If it is running stable out at your devices as it does on mine, we can add more features...

It also supports now AppToDate, which means if you run AppToDate on your device you will be offered to update the software if updates are available in future.
