Have you see the $$$$ price? And it doesn't seem to be sold by the US distributor (Amazon). I agree it is a very interesting product, but yikes. If we think that the Zappiti xml files are the path forward (and right now I think they are), I can try and mobilize the MM Browser users to get involved o...

I just got a reply from Zappiti regarding the ticket I opened: Bonjour, Merci de nous avoir fait remonter toutes ces informations. Nous sommes en collaboration avec les développeurs de MyMovies afin de remédier à ces problèmes. Tant que MyMovies n'exporte pas les fichiers correctement, Zappiti ne ti...

I just submitted a support ticket to CyberLink to see if there is a command line parameter to start DVD playback at a specific Title/Chapter #. Paul Thanks Paul, I appreciate your response regarding this issue, unlike other forums which I'll leave nameless. I can use MPC-BE for DVD playback. I am f...

Hey Jamie, PowerDVD does NOT support DVD Episodes. This is purely a limitation of PowerDVD. DVD Episodes are identified by a Title # or Chapter #. With players like MPC and VLC, you can pass the Title/Chapter # for beginning playback. PowerDVD does not have this capability, at least not that I can f...

I just sent a support email to Zappiti to ask what the correct behavior is for writing these Zappiti.xml files. I doubt they will be helpful, but fingers crossed.

Okay, I posed the question in the mymovies forum. Hopefully it's not too obvious what I am up to :) I just did a google search to see what is known about the zappiti.xml files, and I only got 1 result. For a second I thought it was going to bring up your post. http://www.mymovies.dk/forum.aspx?g=po...

Hi Paul, I deleted all the metadata files from this folder and did a title update. All the metadata here got recreated but the zappiti files had an older March 22nd date. I wonder where that date comes from? A Zappiti.xml file got created in the folder above this folder, but it was created with tod...

I have noticed that when you do the update metadata function for all the meta data that it doesn't update the tv series episode data. I always have to do a clean function before to even get the mymovies.xml and all the other data to update. So I have given up on this method. I use the save metadata...

We're both hackers that way, and I appreciate the effort. And you've certainly come up with some novel and unexpected solutions. My favorite personal hack was a simple 20,000 mixed drink recipe database and desktop program I found twenty-something years ago. You could look up a drink by name, and it...

I see you mostly got it figured out. I programmed MM Browser to be media centric. What that means is that the Sync scan primarily searches for playable media, and when it finds something playable it then finds the meta-data and artwork to go with it. Even if the meta-data and/or artwork is missing, ...
