MoveWiz updated to v1.0.11.0

Unfortunately my test/development machine is setup as a separate GBPVR machine & not a client, is there any way I can access the DB on the server without having to stand on a ladder?

Mine is in the loft and it gets a bit cold up there in the winter...

If you install gbpvr and the moviewiz plugin on another PC on the same network as your gbpvr server, you setup this other PC to be a gbpvr client. That lets you run moviewizmanager on the client PC and maintain your video library which exists on your server. The need for UNC names is to get around the problem of two PCs accessing network folders under different drive letters...

Background: My GBPVR/MVP server sits on top of a cupboard in the hallway, while it has a keyboard, mouse & monitor attached I have to climb up a ladder to use it. This is normally not a problem for most things as they only take a short time to do, but I really can't see me standing there getting all my movie data into MovieWiz. :eek:

I found this in a search I did
"Added Client mode. If running on client, you can in the config set the program to read the DB located on the server. Note, you MUST store ALL your movies (and local thumbnails) with UNC names."

You could:

• Configure your 2nd machine as a client. Pretty easy to do see http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?p=98782
  
• OR Write a batch job to copy the MovieWiz db from your server to your client and either set as a task or a scheduled job. The problem with this is that you'd have to have similar drive mapping to the movies and images.
  
• OR same as above, but when you load your server db, load everything in the format \\server\share\location... so that the copied db will work on the client without having to worry about drive mapping.

Does that error occur on the client machine or the server?

Recreate the error and post the logs and I'll take a look.

Thats on the client when I'm trying to import new movies

Recreate the error and post the logs and I'll take a look.

Which logs? client or server or both?

[Jaggy]

Right just looked & there are no MovieWiz logs on the server so have attached the client ones.

Just a quick update:
I got them all imported into the db after a fashion & random crashes as mentioned above sometimes it would import 8 or 9 before crashing other times it would import just 1, damned if I know :confused: Anyway almost everything else worked fine except for the create thumbnails doesn't seem to do anything (forget that I just tried again & it worked fine this time :confused::confused

Ok, I think that is a bug in the current version of the program (will be fixed in next version). Does it also occur on your server machine when you try and add those movies?

Can you give me some examples, and I will check it out.

OK, try Peep Show|1 : episode 1 for example. Doing that I just get something called tee-won short ?

It's possibly because this show doesn't have episode names, they're all just called episode x ?

Ok, I see I need a little work on the TV Episodes. I will make it work similar to the IMDB lookup, where if it does not find an Exact match, it will pop a list where you can select the most appropriate title.

Look for this in the next version...
