I’ve tried this a couple of times and I can’t seem to get it to work.
I have a WD TV player connected to a hard drive of mvies via Network Shares. I am just using the generic gallery view and not a specific theme. I haven’t worked up the guts to try that yet. LOL My movies are sorted into folders by “family” for lack of a better word (Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Disney, etc.) Within those folders I’ve created xml files using WDTVHubGen for the movies and those work flawlessly.
However, when I try this trick - for example I rename the folder Harry Potter.avi and put one of the xml files renamed Harry Potter.xml outside with the folder, I get nothing. All I see is the generic gallery view with N/A for all of the fields.
I’ve tried renaming the folders so that they are a single word (Harry_Potter) but that hasn’t helped either. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I tried doing these two things, but don’t see this working. I’ve added folder to the media library from my western digital cloud drive. I’m new to this process, can you help me understand what am I missing? I renamed the folder and placed an .xml file with the same file name. Anything else to be done?
Thanks for the detailed explanation Joey, appreciate that. I have bought this 2 weeks back so I believe the firmware is the latest. I don’t have any existing .xml file, how do I get one?
You are simply amazing, it’s working as a charm. Used WDTVHubGen to create the .xml files and I placed the same file outside. It’s just awesome. Thanks a ton Joey!
