Hello all,
I’m new here and somehwat in awe of the amount of knowledge on display.
For background, I’m a new owner of the smp and am very imoressed with it (I’ve previously owned Iomega Screenplay and LG smaet TV upgrader with plex as my media players). That experience aside, I’m very new to scraping and xml and am hoping that someone can answer a few questions for me regarding the SMP (forgive me if they have been asked already).
Q1. For TV shows, is there a way that I can have xml info at the Series and Season folder levels? My TV shows are organised as follows:
24
Season 1
24.S01E01.mkv
24.S01E02.mkv
etc
Season 2
24.S02E01.mkv
24.S02E02.mkv
etc
So in the example above, when I browse to TV shows, I’d like to see a general summary of the Show 24 when I’m at the root of my TV Shows folder, and similarly when I drill down a level, I’d like to see a summary of each season.
Q2. For Movies - sometimes my movies show with French or Spanish artwork - is there a way to force the metadata look up to return the English version
Q3. Can anyone provide a guide on themes? Which ones have been proven to work and step by step on how to install them
Q4. If my movie or TV show can’t be found in the only database can I manually prepare the xml and meththumb files?
Sorry for all of the questions, but I’m enjoying this player so much, I want to have everything set up perfectly.
