![]() ![]() ![]() I have found that I like the Taglines from TMDB a lot better than I do from IMDB so I can change my default metadata source and unselect everything but Taglines, run my files through and get 'em updated. This way is really awesome because you can make batch changes, too. Sorry to have troubled you, and thanks for your help.Glad you got it. When I was trying to use MediaMonkey (MM), MM's 'Director' was being mapped into Mezzmo's 'Artist', and MM's 'Series' was going into 'Album'. So this works, and maps fields into Mezzano correctly. I was previously thinking "I want data from every possible source". The only thing that I did differently, which might explain it, was that I disabled all other sources on the Metadata Retrieval Settings panel - so things like 'Get text metadata from file path' etc were unticked. I just did it really slowly, documenting every step of the way, and it worked! I would have to set up my Playlists again, but the metadata shows up every time. If I were to delete my entire Mezzmo database today, I could simply start over by adding the folders and then "Maintain Library". If you don't deselect everything else then stuff can get pulled in from different places. Under Tools>Options>Retrieving Metadata>Metadata Retrieval settings I have everything deselected except "Get Artwork from External Files" and "Get Test Metadata and Artwork from XBMC (.nfo/.tbn) files. and if they aren't selected when you scan the files then that info doesn't get populated. nfo files by opening them in MemoPad (or Notepad) and making sure the information is getting in there? TinyMediaManager has selectable fields for things like Plot, Rating, Tagline, etc. If it is off by an extra space or has a suffix or something generic like "movie.nfo" then it won't work. ![]() nfo file in the same folder as the original video file and is it named exactly the same as the original video file? A lot of the media managers will append the title with something like -nfo.nfo. nfo file updates in Mezzmo?Hmmm, it should be that simple. ![]() nfo file updates in Mezzmo?Ĭould you tell me what I'm doing wrong, or point me to a Dummies Guide to actioning. nfo file don't appear.Ĭould you tell me what I'm doing wrong, or point me to a Dummies Guide to actioning. I then delete my 'test' folder from Mezzmo and add it again. I have the radio button "Update all attributes. I have Mezzmo set to "Get text metadata and artwork fromXBMC (.nfo/tbn) files". These are generated in the same folder as the movie, which are all mp4's. nfo files that I can get out of tinymediamanager, I could then modify these as required. My best hope seems to be if I can get Mezzmo to process the. The whole of this sector seems to assume that only nerds do this kind of thing - so there don't appear to be any instructions included with any software. It's impossible to differentiate between wrong actions and bugs. None works in a simple, consistent way without bugs. I've also discovered Ember Media Manager. I've tried tips from another thread, which advises using tinyMediaManager and/or MediaMonkey. It's sad that most of my requirements would be achieved by correctly populating the Artist(s), Genre, and Year fields without keying these into a large number of movies - but I can't achieve it. (I can do it, myself, because I know the folder structures). I want to have it properly organised so that my wife can find her way around my movies. I was very pleased when I tried Mezzmo - it was the easiest software to drive my media from my PC to my TV.īut now I've got greedy. ![]()
