Time consuming bug setting up movies in the DB editor

Postby lesammann on Thu Sep 29, 2005 10:29 pm

In short:

Location...Setup menu > Databases > DB Editor > Spiders...Save As: <field> browse button; for saving artwork covers/stills.

The browse button does not function at all, I can edit the target location in the field for the stills but but when I hit the save cover button in DBeditor it creates and saves the stills folder to xlobby root and not to the defined location AND after selecting save cover the target rewrites itself as defined by me but its missing a /.


Example: after creating a "newitem" > Spiders tab > download movie details from IMDB the Save As: field reads default...d:\program files\xlobby2\offline\preditor\preditor front-cover.jpg...download stills...I edit the field to <media root>movies\movie1\stills and it changes back to default path.
A stills folder has been created at d:\program files\xlobby2 which is even different than the default path.

I then have to go edit the DB movie.xml to correct the pathing to the stills and cover...move the stills folder etc...Looking at hundreds of movies to do could take quite a while. Any thoughts, updates to correct problem, suggestions etc. would be great.

BTW XLOBBY' FLEXIBILITY IS AWESOME
