i have a mess with my covers and need some help.

problem 1:

for every movie i have allready downloaded and stored a cover on my hdd.
example:
movie1/movie1.avi
movie1/movie1.jpg

this does not work anymore if i have the following situation:
example:
movie1/movie1-cd1.avi
movie1/movie1-cd2.avi
movie1/movie1.jpg

wouldn't it make sense if emm would just look for *.jpg in the folder instead of the exact name match? (or have a checkbox for this)
(as it does for *.nfo!)


problem 2:

even if the cover is found during importing emm is still downloading a second one and stores everything double in database /*cover/ folder.
i'm using imdb (fastest) with cover download being disabled!
it's possible to delete second covers but it's still eating my bandwith :-)


problem 3:

as explained above i have allready downloaded all the covers. when importing emm is copying them to the database /*cover/ folder.
can i disable this and have emm read the cover from the movie folder?
(with the above problem my covers are saved 3 times and with the tumbnail 4 times. thats a waste of space)
tumbnails could still be stored at /*thumbs/ i guess.

If you mean the Advanced Option. This Option has no effect what so ever. The Original Author of the Script simply copied all Options from the Complete Script, but these aren't implemented. He/She simply has forgotten to remove useless Options...

I will have a look at the Script and will remove all Advanced Options that don't have any effect/aren't implemented in the script itself.

Edit:

Posted new IMDB.COM Scripts:

Thank you very much Prinz. Works well now :-)

One further thought on leaving the covers in the original folder. they should not get renamed with "Title Cleaning" or else the name structure gets messed up.
Basically i'm thinking about movie covers being handled just like the Movie files.
