Version 1.0.0.0
This is the first release of MovieSheetGen+, in this release I've included support for Movie Sheets, Thumbs and Series Sheets including Season and Episode Sheets.
TEMPLATES:
I've included a few of my favorite Movie Sheet templates in the installation, but most of the templates that are available should work. If you find any template incompatibilities, please let me know.
FEATURES:
1. Simplicity - MovieSheetGen+ is aimed at people who want a simple Movie Sheet Creator, it's never going to be as powerfull as Thumbgen for example, but that's not it's purpose.
2. Supports Thumbgen Templates - There is no point in creating a new template standard, I've included a few template enhancements that can be used if wanted but they are there to fill the gaps caused by not supporting xslt files, at this point there are no immediate plans to support xslt, but i may consider it in the future.
3. Batch Processing - Choose a template, select Movie or Series Hit a button and walk away. the batch process is designed to be unattended, there is the occasional mismatch, but in general the search works pretty well. there are a number of batch options.
Searching
MovieSheetGen+ will search MovieDB.org, IMDB and TheTVDB.org for you movie details, you can influence the search in a few ways.
1. By default MovieSheetGen+ will use either the selected file or folder name to search for the movie/series details.
2. If you enter a name in the Title box MovieSheetGen+ will use the name you entered an ignore the file/folder name.
3. If searching for a Movie you can enter either the IMDBID or the MovieDB ID, MovieSheetGen+ will then completely ignore the name and use the id to search for the information.
4. If searching for a Series you can enter the IMDB ID, MoviesheetGen will then ignore the file or folder name and search TheTVDB using the IMDBID, Additionally if you are creating a Season Sheet and MovieSheetGen+ does not correctly identify the season number, you can enter the season number in the season box.
When searching for movie info, information from themoviedb.org and imdb are combined to populate the sheet.
Options
1. Show only unprocessed folders: filters the folder list to only display folders without movie sheets.
2. Save Movie file poster: creates the filename.jpg file to display movie poster thumbs for files.
3. Create Thumbs: Creates Thumb Sheets using Thumb Sheet templates for Series.
4. Use Screencaps if no backdrops: this option will take screen caps of the identified media file if there are no available backdrops on moviedb or imdb, currently the support is limited.
5. Use Hash Search: this option uses a file hash to search for movie info, this search method does not rely on the file name being correct or clean.
6. Save sheets to Central Repository: this option creates movie sheets and met data in the folder you selected in the Central Repository setting.
7. Create wd_tv.jpg (Gen 1 Support): enable this option to create a wd_tv.jpg file to support WDTV Gen 1 Devices.
8. Pad Sheet for Overscan: this option will pad the generated sheet to cater for your TV's overscan (text or images showing off the edge of the screen) set the vertical and horizontal pixel values to adjust the ammount of padding
9. Subtitle Language: this option is used to determine which subtitle language to download from opensubtitles.
10.Central Repository: the path to the folder where the movie sheets are created when this option is enabled.
11. Shadow Folder Structure: when this option is enabled a "shadow copy" of your media storage fodler structure gets created in the central repository location, all thumbs and sheets are created in this folder and can then be copied to your media store after sheet generation has been completed, this is very usefull if you media storage is read only.
Batch Options
1. Refresh movie info: refreshes the movie details only, will use already downloaded images if available.
2. Refresh images: re-downloads movie posters, backdrops and fanart.
3. Wide banners as fanart 2: there is a "standard" of using the %FANART2% tag to display wide banners in series sheets, this option caters for it.
4. Process Season Folders (Series): When batch processing a folder containing series this option will automatically drill down to the season folders and process them too.
5. Process Episodes (Series): When batch processing a folder containing seasons this option will automatically drill down to the episode files and process them too.

| |______Andromeda 201.The.Widening.Gyre.avi

Movie Folder Structure:
Movie folders as well as files are supported, ideally your filenames should be clean i.e. without all the release info, format details etc.but MovieSheetGen+ will clean the filename before attempting to search.
BUTTONS:
Download - Searches themoviedb.org and imdb or thetvdb.org for details matching the selected folder or file, search works as follows.
1. - If a Movie Info section contains a MovieDB ID then it searches themoviedb.org using the ID, if it's not found then IMDB is searched using the folder name
2. - If no MovieDB ID has been entered but there is an IMDB Id then it will search themoviedb.org using the imdb id, if no match is found it will search imdb using the imdb id, if there is still no match it will search using the folder name
3 - If there is no imdb id and no moviedb id it will then check for a name in the title box, if one exists it will search using the title and not the folder name.
Batch Process - Processes all files or folders in the currently selected folder. if no folder/file has been selected it will process all folders/files in the current folder, If a folder/file has been selected it will process all files/folders starting from the selected one.
Auto folder Processes the selected folder/file - similar to batch but only processes the selected folder/file, call it lazy mode, i.e. you want to create a movie sheet but don't want to choose the poster/backdrop/fanart.
Generate Sheet Uses the downloaded info & selected poster, backdrop and fanart to create a movie sheet.
Get Subtitles Searches opensubtitles.org for subtitles and downloads a subtitle file if available.
Template Features
Since MovieSheetGen+ does not currently support xsl templates I've added two must have template changes to cater for features I needed.
[1.] xsl is often used to split lists into multiple columns, I've allowed for this by processing two new values in the element tags, ListStart and ListCount for ex. <TextElement Name="Episodes 2" ListStart="15" ListCount="10" ~ tells the generator to start with item 15 in the list and to stop 10 items later.
[2.] xsl is also used to create the large hours/minutes diplay used in some templates, these elements seem to have the same names in the templates that use them, so I process them in the sheet generator
Here are a few screenshots.
