My Music 3 Beta (DB Version)

[nkh]

Hmm, I must have missed a setting somewhere, 'cos I get this error when I run the db loader (I don't have a dir called "C:\xmltv\", so something must be pointing in the wrong direction):



These are some settings from my config.xml:

Code:

<MusicLibraryDirectory>Musik~C:\Musik|</MusicLibraryDirectory>

and

Code:

<MyMusicPlugin>
      <ImageFileExtensions>mp3|ape|ogg|wma</ImageFileExtensions>
      <DatabaseConnectionString>Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source="C:\Programmer\devnz\gbpvr\MyDatabase.mdb"</DatabaseConnectionString>
      <CDDirectory>C:\</CDDirectory>
      <PlaylistDirectory>C:\Musik\</PlaylistDirectory>
      <WritingApplication>
      </WritingApplication>
      <VirtualRoot>Full albums~DIR~C:\Musik\fullalbums\|</VirtualRoot>
      <DebuggingLevel>0</DebuggingLevel>
      <MenuItems>
        <MenuItem name="View" index="0" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Sort by" index="1" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Slideshow" index="2" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="RSlideshow" index="3" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Random" index="4" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Playlists" index="5" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Settings" index="6" visible="true" />
        <MenuItem name="Main Menu" index="7" visible="true" />
      </MenuItems>
    </MyMusicPlugin>

The things I have changed are the path to MyDatabase.mdb ('cos I'm using a Danish windows version) and setting a virtual root to the music on my computer. I have only changed settings using the config app.

the C:\xmltv drive is just where the source files are on my development machine, so ignore that.

ill look at the source code again for the dbloader i may have hardcoded a few things (in my lazyness). im just about to watch "Casino" (a 3 hour flick) so ill do it after that

oh one thing you might try is just running gbpvr with my music enabled first, then running the dbimporter. i think that maybe my music has to first update the database (this is a long shot).

Reven, just to let you know that I have the same problem as nkh

i finally looked at the code, the problem is that some of your music files tags are incomplete, theres no artist name given for at least one file, thus theres a null exception. i posted a fix to ignore safe guard against the error for the dbloader but not sure how the plugin itself will handle it (probably just an artist with no name will be listed ie "").

Okay, that may well be....

Where do I get the updated dbloader? I just downloaded the file in the first post in thread and it had the old dbloader in it?

Also, could you make the dbloader write a text file with the files that has incomplete tags?
