Re: Tool to preLoad “Get Info” metadata on your TV Live hub

Well, I installed this little nifty app (theRenamer_Setup.exe), Work really well and it allowed your tool to fetch a lot more metadata off the site.
What I do (it’s a pain in the %$@ but it works) is I allready have .jpg for all my movies so the renamer “renames” the .MP4 files , I use the tool to fetch the metadata then copy paste the name from toe original .jpg back onto the .MP4 and .xml.
The tool also fetches new .jpg so I keep the one I like the most. (most of the time my own as I used google image for search for all my dvd art and used photoshop to batch resize all the pics to 78k.
For the rest so far (the one I cannot get the tool to work, I made a Blank metadata (.xml) file and I copy paste the info from TMDb into it,
here is what I use . . .
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>entermovietitlehere
enterhearhere
enterdurationhere
entergenrehere
enterplothere
enterplothere
enterdirectorhere
enteractornamehere
enterroleplayedhere
repeat if necessary
It takes a while but it works great.
If you have better ideas, please feel free because it will take me most likely over a hundred hours to complete all my library . . .
But there is one thing certain, you (and your work) helped a heck of a lot, Thank You.

That’s exactly what I’ve been having to do…please update if you find a quicker/easier way to create .xml files for “hard to find” movies…thanks!
