Hey all!
I'm switching over from Movie Collector because ver 6 will only import data from Collectorz.com, and no others. I also don't like their cumbersome Boxsets and Episodes support either ...
so, ..... here I am!!
The first thing I need to do is import my (Movie Collector) Collection of almost 1200 movies. Would someone please provide the best way of doing this?
Thanks again, . hope to be posting more in the next days and weeks, ... and eventually to the point of being able to help others as well!
take care

I'm a Collectorz "export" as well:-) Their database is completely useless so they told me my collection is "too eccentric" and advised me to get another software, so I just purchased a copy of EMM:-) I'm importing from Collectorz 5.6 via XML and am having some problems with fields as well (Notes & some custom fields). Also if any of the fields under Episodes & Features in Collectorz are filled in, it only imports as a completely blank entry for the entire film in EMM (in other words none of the info is imported like title, stars, plot etc)
Thanks! |

Hi to everybody, i'm another "mover"
long story short, there are thousand of networked mediatanks around the world that need support for this fabulous devices.
In Italy isn't as popular as here but things are moving.
I remember I left my beautiful Italia 10 years ago.......
I'm happy to help alessio with my purchase and give some serious support.
Anyway we are pro user and I think we can give out help to bring XMM to the next level.
Keep in mind that with the new platform (ION Nvidia) capable of smooth playbback for 200$ there will be more and more users around.

I switched over from Movie Collector to Extreme Movie Manager and I'm glad I did. It is 100% better. |

Alessio,
Is is possible to get some information about this tool ?
I'm trying to create a template but I don't have all data I'm looking for.
There is not text file providing the available variable.
I found on the provided template some but... I look to much much more.
Since I have VB at office, I gonna check the sources but, would be much faster getting a text.
Thanks for this link. |

Hi Alessio,
Got my NTM few days ago and decided to choose your product instead of Collectorz for all the reason already showed in this thread.
Now I'm just waiting for the automated "My Lil Movie Jukebox" auto export or a manuel trick!!! (such a great tool!)
Then all will be perfect.
Can you provide an update on the project ?

Hi RobRoy,
Please write me an email to alessioviti -at- binaryworks.it and send your XML file, I will try to import these custom fields.

I too am transitioning from Collectorz.
I set up two custom fields in Collectorz which do not map across when I import the XML file. Is there a way to transfer these custom fields into EMM? |

Hello,
I like to switch frm MC to XMM and tried to import my MC DB by XML to XMM. It seems, that the user fields of MC are not imported. Can this be checked or added?
"<extras/><tags/><usertext1>MyText...</usertext1>
Thanks! |

I need to learn more about XMM before I can tell you what's needed.
thanks again
It is really simple to connect to the XMM database. I created an html export myself. Of course it's not that feature-rich like the "My Lil jukebox", but it's working. but I would be very happy, if "My Lil Jukebox" is supporting XMM...
Are there any plans or progress?
Best regards

Couple of updates.
IMDB put "Children's" as the GENRE for a few movies, the ' has to be removed.
IMDB also puts in SPOOF/PARODY and the / is not valid.
in the popcornmediaportal.ini for the hard drive/usb/share/nfs I had to put another \ at the end of the emmpath, ie \\server\share\ in order for the software to find my iso's.
I'm still unable to run the detailed pages, but I'm getting individual movie pages so, I'm not sure what that check box does.
FYI |

Has anyone got the Movie Portal to work? I'm of course having issues.
I ran it with the details page checked and the memory usage on my pc for the application went to 1.45gb and then the program stopped working (vista machine).
I then unchecked the details page and got a .net error in a query 'Genre='CHILDREN'S ORDER BY Year DESC'
syntax error(missing operator) in query expression.
So the program isn't working for me. I know the source code is included but, ImageReflect Reference isn't included or how to get it.
Anyone have any suggestions? |

hi there
I also moved away from Movie Collector because of the same reason (they only source their own database for informations). Now I imported my collection, but the following fields didn't come with the import:
- price
- purchase date
As well the purchase price field shows only one digit behind the comma, when typing in manually. I think this should be 2 digits, will this be updated somewhen?
Regards and thanks in advance,

New to the program, just purchased. I imported Movie Collector db (all movies on DVD) today and have a problem. I use the episode fields in Movie Collector for scenes with a description for each. 2600 of 3000 were imported as TV shows (I'm thinking because the epispde field was filled in). Hope there is something easy to fix this. Like I said I'm a newbie so be easy on me.
Thanks |
