Support / Re: Scanning ISO-Files
« on: October 29, 2010, 12:36:19 am »
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.
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:

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?
