Movies beta

Thanks again for this great plugin.

I have again two improvement suggestions and it would be nice, if you could implement it.

First, here in Germany our NumberDecimalSeparator is the ",", but in my generated nfo-Files the rating-Node is formatted as follows: <rating>7.1</rating>

The result of this constellation is the following:

The 7.1 is interpreted as 71 (neither "," nor ".") and so I get a sensational rate of 71/10 (which means 35.5 stars ;-)). Is it possible to correct this?

Second, is it possible to call a bat-Script (something like probably Movies.bat in the Scripts-Directory) when entering your plugin and an other (PostMovies.bat) when leaving it? With this implementation it would be possible for me to automatically switch the sound-output to digital-out when wanting to watch videos and switch back to hdmi out when leaving your plugin. This would be really nice.

Many thanks

That would be "Movies.bat" since Video is Sub's native plugin.

Yes you are right, sorry. I've changed it in my original post.

After Installing Movies and using Media Companion to provide the Bling I was having problems finding decent backgrounds for the Categories till I found this:

Very nice Video wall backgrounds - and if you have Adobe Bridge & Photoshop there are instructions and templates to make your own.

And in the traditions of TV Cooking shows - here is one I made earlier - for my Chinese Movies

Once you have your 32 pictures in the correct pdf format (in Bridge) - and have worked out how "Actions" work in photoshop - it takes about 20 seconds to make the entire thing - then 20 minutes to set the exact hue you want - so much choice!

Google Translate - for "Chinese Movies" in the shot - I have been informed that it is correct by the One who knows :eek:

With the movies plugin installed, along with Media Companion, unless you want lots of different on-line content plugins, I can see no point in using XBMC for a single HTPC.

Thanks vik

Thanks vik

I couldn't agree more, this is the one thing I'v been missing about NPVR, but thanks to Vik we now have this magnificent plugin (which I'm sure will grow even better). Now I just wish I could get the MusicBox4 to work :o

Start a new thread with any problems you are having with MusicBox4 and I'm sure we can get them sorted out...
