NextPVR Forums

First I would like to say KUDOS to all that have contributed to this project. I have been going back and forth for years between MP Myth WMC GB never getting the system I want. Could not believe how fast I was able to configure NextPvr. Great job guys. which now leads to my first of a number of posts.

I didn't like how Next handled my movie library. Not all covers displayed. Have to click folders to get to files. Wasn't keen on the display. What suggestions does anyone have. Is there a plugin better suited. should I have the movies in a specific file structure/tree ( i admit my files are a mess). Can I somehow link IMDB. Just curious to see what others have done.

Thanks, Troy

I use Ember Media Manager:

NPVR supports it's output files for movies and TV series (if kept in the Videos area.) I've used it for years, I know there are others, but this works for me and it ain't broken for what I do.

All my movies are grouped in folders by quality - 1080p Movies - 720p Movies - xvid Movies etc in the Media Folders setup screen and on my server. Each movie file is accompanied by an xml file and jpg file of the same name and I always use list view.

I originally used the wiz metadata grabber standalone http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post399518 but now just make new xml's in notepad from the imdb info and posters from impawards - resized to 450 wide.
