Universal Mede8er Jukebox Aggregator (Beta)

[jer1956]

Add each disk one at a time to a single universal jukebox located on an SD card. The entries will always be there...even if the disks arnt.

Thank you for your reply. But maybe I have not made myself clear: It has nothing to to with the Mede8er X3. It concerns only the program of the topic running on a PC.

Who mentioned the X3?

You use an SD card and set that  as where the Universal Aggregator will create the Aggregated jukebox.  You then  add all  the sources one by one, and aggregating to  the SD card.    When  you have finished all the movie scrape will  be on it, even though only that last drive connected will be usable at that point as only its media is avaialble.

Hi, I've been using this excellent tool to manage my jukebox for quite a few months now without a problem. This week i started adding trailers to my jukebox and the program now crashes when i click get movies.

I've played around and found it's only a few movie locations causing the issue so wondered if anyone can advise on how to turn on debugging so that i can work out where the issue is. The error i'm getting is:

Edit:

It would appear that a number of my moviename.xml files had been modified to be zero size. A removal of these files and the aggregator runs smoothly again.

Problem solved.

Hi,
I started using MAJM because it is really silly to always rescan the directories after changing information via Mymovies.
The only problem I have is that I can't play the movies from Jukebox+ any longer if MAJM has created it.
I checked the XML-Files:
Entry in XML-File create by "Add to jukebox+" from Mede8er
      <filelink><![CDATA[smb://user:password@SERVER01/Videos/3D///Resident Evil/Afterlife]]></filelink>
Entry in the same file create by MAJM      
         <filelink>smb://SERVER01/Videos/3D///Resident Evil/Afterlife</filelink>
     
Entry in Mede8erJukebox.xml
    <filmshare_path>\\SERVER01\Videos\3D</filmshare_path>
    <mede8er_filmshare_path>smb://SERVER01:jens/Videos/3D</mede8er_filmshare_path>      

Where am I missing the point ?

Thanks
Jens   

Found the missing Point ;-)
- enabled guest acces on smb-share
- removed password for guest account
- recreated favorites
- created the config file
ran the prog again and !!  Works

Cheers

Heya RobinC,

Great tool, thanks so much for your hard work!

Do you mind if I make a feature request? 

Is it possible to update the tool to include links/check links for trailers that are stored in the same folder as the movies?

I've added a new movie as a test, confirming beforehand that normal browsing shows the trailer button...  then I added manually just that folder to favourites, menu to jukebox, and the browsed it, info page shows trailer button...

I have no idea if Mede8er adds extra braches in their XML inside the Jukebox to enable it there specifically...

It would make this tool perfect I think!
