Hi everybody,
sorry for opening a new thread, but my problems didn't fit exactly to the other threads.

Y2M works perfectly while running on my PC, but after copying the whole data onto my USB device i'm having 3 problems:

- for a lot of movies there are no covers, infos & fanarts shown on the mede8er
- for some movies i only see the half cover (other half is grey), and after clicking on it the Mede8er just shows a black screen
- in the software everything looks ok, but if i look on the usb device there are some covers & fanarts in a totally wrong folder (the pictures for movie A are in the folder of movie B)

I'm using the Beta 7 after upgrading vom Beta 6 where i had the exactly same problems.

I've read that the first 2 problems are known, but didn't find anything about the third problem.
Does anyone know a solutions for these problems?

thx in advance,
- wood Smiley

I suggest to name your folders different....
And also carefully read the file name convention for YamJ.
See the manual:
http://www.mede8er.com/mede8er_support.html

Regarding movie folder name, name them like this:
movie (year), so e.g. Avatar (2010)

Use the same names as found on IMDB.

If you want to put extra text use brackets so that will be ignored by YAMJ:
[movie] name (year).avi

Example:
Avatar [1080p] (2010)

i think you don't understand my problem.....

an exemple is better ...

my movie name:

TOTO.megaupload.2010.zzz.AVI

if i follow file name convention for YamJ, i have:

TOTO.megaupload.2010.zzz

wich contain the AVI and the 2 JPG : folder.jpg and about.jpg. That's all needed, not?

YamJ uses http://www.imdb.com to find content about the media.
If it is not found there, you will not have a cover and movie sheet.
