hi there,

i tagged about 50% of my movies now via IMDB and it works very well. The only problem i figured out is, that with german movies, it wont work that well or you have to edit atleast the title since the titles sometimes differ from the english language.
since imdb has also a german translation (imdb.de) it would be nice if you could parse the german imdb instead of the english one.

is there anything planned on this? if not, i would try to get my hands on this since imdb supports english, german, italian, spanish, portugese and french.

hi there,

i finally got my new hybrid, installed it and configured some stuff. while playing around, testing everything, i made a list of questions - hopefully you can answer them ;)

1) MKV Files: xine is playing the mkv files, but it stops working if a file is bigger than 9gb. so i have to rename it to m2ts that mplayer handles it. is that a known bug in xine? personally i would want xine to stream those videos, since mplayer cant pause the movie
2) updating lmce: what update mechanisms are available? i found out that in the webadmin there is a link called "force update" (More --> Advanced Options --> Force Upgrade Now) - can this be pressed without destroying the whole system? "force" sounds so hard, i am afraid to destroy it ;) There is another link i found: sqlcvs update. Whats that for?
3) RAM: i have 2x2GB ram installed, but since its a 32bit kubuntu it just recognizes 2,3GB - am i able to change that somehow?
4) iTunes: is the lmce audio library possible to play music that was bought via iTunes?
5) Audio playing: is there anything like a visualization, as we know it from windows media player, for the audio? i personally like that stuff and its better than having pictures/flickr in the background ;)
6) 100% cpu: while playing 1080p movies (between 6 to 25GB per file), one core gets stressed by mplayer / xine to 100%. is this normal? can i somehow lay some calculations on the GPU?
7) i dont know how to explain that exactly - i hope you will understand ... when playing videos on my philips aurea (40'', full hd) it looks like parts of the screen are later updated than others. the best example is a flying camera over some mountains (braveheart intro e.g.) - the lower part is running smooth, the top quarter is updated later so you see the delay (looks like lagging). if you dont understand it i can try recording the screen and post the video here.


thanks for answering my questions :)

Users / Is this setup possible with lmce?
« on: January 02, 2010, 12:28:37 pm »
hi,

since i moved to a new apartment i thought about renewing my home cinema system and i would want to know if this setup would work with lmce:

- full hd video via hdmi
- blu ray drive
- 1.5tb hd (ntfs) via usb2.0

So is lmce capable of playing full hd movies from a blu ray drive via hdmi to my full hd tv set? is it possible to play movies from an usb 2.0 external hd with ntfs filesystem?

thanks in advance

Users / Windows shared directories
« on: August 28, 2008, 09:22:25 am »
hi there,

on my workstation i have 3 network shares without password:
- music
- images
- movies

you can imagine in what folder is what type of files ;)
after turning off the firewall and adding my workstation manually (because of external ip adress, not internal network), mce found my shares, i added them correctly.
when i have a closer look on them (Advanced->Configuration->Devices->[Windows Share-Movies]) i see that "Online" is ticked on. (This is important as i read on some threads in this forum).
MCE ran over night and now i see in the "images" share many many .TNJ files (thumbnails of my jpegs). That means that mce can access my files. But when i now click in my windows orbiter on "Pictures", "Movies" or "Audio" i dont see anything!
Even calling "Media Files Sync" on /home/public/data or /mnt/upnp adds my media to lmce.

Calling media sync on public/data results in the following:

Hope you can help me :(
