3 simple questions

[illanz]

Hi there !

First of all, at least 5% of my movie files ar badly recognized by moviejukebox. how can I change the file details (picture and movie details) ? The database often recognizes a wrong movie...
I also have files that are not detected ( 720 files in my share and moviejukebox only recognizes 705 files or so...)

Second: I'm a GUI user and have files on my network harddrive :
file:///opt/sybhttpd/localhost.drives/NETWORK_SHARE/VIDEOSTORE/MovieZ/

But I have a second network hard drive + the hard drive inside of my PCH.
How can I add files in those 2 other drives in the same index.html ? I dont't thnik I'm able to edit the library file...

Third, I have the latest firmware and I would like to know if it's possible to have a shortcut to the index because I have to browse at least 10 screens prior reaching the index file...

THX A LOT ! ! !

Read the wiki about NFO files: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/NFO_Files

What files are being excluded? Are they temp files?
Are the extensions of the files in the recognised list? See the moviejukebox.properties mjb.extensions property, by default these are:

Code:

mjb.extensions=AVI DIVX MKV WMV M2TS TS RM QT ISO VOB MPG MOV MP4 M1V M2V M4V M2P TP TRP M2T MTS ASF RMP4 IMG

Yes it is.

.NFO>>>> Thxs, I'll try this...
Missing files >>>> All of them are AVIs. no temps...
editing the library.xml>>>>Definitely unable to make this happen !
Shortcut to index>>>>Where ? how ?

Are any of the AVIs part of a series or two part movies that have CD/DISC in the title? These will probably be combined into one movie page. If not, please post some examples of the filenames (please follow the forum posting guide with respect to scene groups).

Why are you not able to edit the library file? It's a fairly simple procedure and will give you the flexibility that you require for the multiple shares.

[illanz]

OK now I've edited the library.xml file with my several locations...
How do I run the scan ???
I've launched the command : MovieJukebox libraries.xml -o MyJukebox >>> what does this MyJukebox means ?

But It doesn't work
I have the following error :

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError : com/moviejukebox/MovieJukebox.

Could not find the main class : com.moviejukebox.moviejukebox

I'm using the latest version...

I'd be interested in hearing about this as well....

[Omertron]

Open a command window (DOS)
Change to the directory you installed YAMJ
MovieJukebox {name.of.library.file.xml} -o {directory of where you want jukebox to go}

You need to read the index.htm thread. There's no simple solution yet...

Just to make the moviejukebox command really simple (as when I started I didn't know how to change directory and needed to look it up)

have yamj in a folder called yamj on your C:\ drive

open cmd

type

Code:

cd c:\yamj

this will navigate to your yamj folder

then as omertron says (in my case I have my PCH on a mapped network drive, and the yamj index folder goes directly onto the PCH hard drive)

Code:

moviejukebox z:\video -o z:\

in your case though using the library.xml file as stated above, modifying the name of the library file if needed and the location if it is anywhere other than the current location.

Code:

moviejukebox library.xml -o z:\

also add folders to the final jukebox directory if you want to.

As for the navigation to the YAMJ index, I use the sleek skin. it has a button on the main NMT page for go to my movies that you can go into settings and direct to anywhere on the drive.

[Omertron]

Or you can check out my GUI Config here: http://omertron.com/pch/YAMJ_GUI_Config
Currently it only supports 1 share location, but it will do all the work of writing the files for you, you can then edit them to tweak if you need to.

[illanz]

OK I did it with you GUI Config util...

Thanks so much.... My dream is becoming true... I have my complete (2000+) Movie collection straight on my TV...... Wonderful....

I still experience a problem with the allocine plugin because it stops randomlessly... Anyway, I will use IMDB with many many many nfos......

Last question... My jukebox dir is stored a networked hard drive (kind of nas)... Do you think that I can reach a faster navigation in the movies index if I store the directory in my C: for example ?

Thanks again

[Omertron]

You might have a faster browsing of the index if it is stored on the local hard drive of the PCH.

Just copy the files and try it, there is no need to change anything.

[illanz]

I don t have a disk in my NMT. Just a nas ! Thanks anyway !
