Options/Moviesheet/Autopopulate all images from metadata

I see now; but it's Autoselect. This is why I wasn't found it

PS: I will think about the "Update from metadata" ->use latest episode list (and number) but won't be implemented soon (as I am out of "office")

For me soon it's September because "I'm out of office" in Avgust and now i'm preparing my "out"

Oh, right , Autoselect Too many terms in TG... I mix them up in my mind

First of a big thumbs up to the app, loving Thumbgen - great piece of kit. I am really new to this but I managed to get most of my moviesheets working first time of asking. I am however having a problem. Before I upgraded to BRAD's firmware, I had thumbnails for all my movies. Now since upgrading and creating moviesheets some of the thumbnails are not showing along the bottom. The moviesheet is working fine but no thumbnail at the bottom - any ideas? I have tried creating the moviesheet again, this time including thumbnails but to no avail. Also, some of my films (MKV and VOB's) are not being recognised by Thumgen. I select them but when I got to generate the sheet it simply doesn't find them. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work everyone

First problem is related to b-rad's firmware.

For the second problem I need the name of the moviefiles that are not recognized (and also what collectors are used); better send me log.txt (thumbgen [at] googlemail.com) after you try to process those movies

Hi Thumbgen,

played with the filtering not to show files having a moviesheet already.
But as I'm organizing per folder, coud you create a filter to only show the folders withouth moviesheets ?
e.G.
mainfolder
-folder1
--movie1_sheet
-folder2
--nomoviesheet
-subflder1
--fodler1
---moviesheet
--folder2
---nomoviesheet

should only show:
-folder2
-subflder1
--folder2

?
tx!

Sure. But I guess I need 2 filters: one for the main sheet and one for the extra sheet. From TG's point of view they are independent of the current folder/movie location (u can store the moviesheets on a different drive). I will add a TODO item in my list.

Now a quick question about generating the sheets. I am currently using the default thumbgen template. There are 3 black rectangles near the upper right of the screen. On a few DVD rips, these were autopopulated with "DVD" "480P".. But on all of my BR rips, these are left blank. Is there a way to generate that info to have the info in those boxes? Thanks

never mind, I was playing around and answered my own question

Hi im glad to see somebody figured out how to get thumbGen working i have some questions that may sound silly but bare with me a little please.

>>>here<<< at the homepage there are two osd mod versions * version app.bin and * version installable the latter of wich i figured is flashed directly to my WDHDTV 1ST GEN and i have flashed it.

2. by flashing that particular osd f/w [if thats what its called im new to this] do i have to have any particular bin files on my 2gb flash drive.
3. I already know how to use the actual program thumbgen awesome btw but i cant see the movie sheets at all is this because i need a wired or wireless usb adaptor to ssh into the drive and configure something
4. i don't have any of the latter the wireless adapters i do have i don't believe they are compatible
5. I'm at a complete lost as to what is next i havent slept belive it or not have been sort of obsessed with getting this to work, can somebody help me out step by step with some details so i dont get lost along the way tvixie has proven to be a migrane theres no getting over. I'm hoping to succeed with thumbgen with your help
