New Metadata Sreens and Recordings Fan Art

UPDATE: Upon further testing, I do see the dots in the details section. So, I'm thinking that it's likely a skin change would work. But I can't seem to find a skin file which matches what is being displayed? Does anyone know where to find it?

Are you wanting to see them on the list items (rather than the details)?

Another item:

The Archive and Find All menu items don't appear to be displayed.

These probably aren't going to be added.

Yes. That way when I open a folder of episodes, I can quickly see if there are any episodes that I haven't already watched.

There is also a problem when there is only 1 episode in a folder: the details section isn't diplayed:
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

To get the details for the single episodes it appears to use the info from the <show name>.xml file in the media/shows folder rather than the database

Ok, you'll need these two files.

I don't seem to be able to reproduce this one. Was it from Recordings or Video Library?

Recordings.

I just doubled checked with a couple Schedules Direct recordings, and I'm getting the subtitle and show description etc, which you seem to be missing.

Can you zip and attach your npvr.db3?

Once I realized the xml was a new file required to be put in the Skins/Recordings Folder this works great.

For us poor people without Schedules direct :eek:

The info comes from theTVdb - For single shows it goes in the <show name>.xml file in the media/shows folder, for series episodes it goes in the nfo file in the recording directory. It doesn't get it from the npvr.db3.

Quite often on first airings the info hasn't made it to the TVdb at time of recording. So I have had to copy and paste from the npvr.db3 and produce the required xml or nfo files.

Now that would be a handy utility for someone with more skill than me to come up with - or if NPVR fell back to the db if no xml or nfo files were present...

My comment was really because BrettB was in the US, so likely to be using Schedules Direct.

When it comes to recordings, this info comes from your database. So, as long as you had some EPG info about the show you recorded (whether it's from DVB or XMLTV or SchedulesDirect), then it should show.

Here is a show I just recorded from from DVB-T, using the DVB EPG.
