Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

Something I keep forgetting to mention is that mapped drives are not supported by My Movies. While your NAS is on the network, you are accessing it via mapped drive letters. I know it seems logical to do this, and yes it seems to work okay with My Movies, and definitely is mostly fine for CCC/CME to...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

Wait it had a slow start on full export(not test), only 2 movies in a long period, but then just started exporting rather quickly with NAS in standby and no link lights on NAS or switch LEDs. Could be it started once NAS went to standby. Maybe it never got it from CME in the first place when the NA...

Re: Bug - no sync for nested collection updates with disc title changes only

This is a probably a My Movies bug, not a CCC bug. My Movies provides a list, via their API, of the last changed date/time of each title. CCC queries this list, and will grab any that are newer than the last time it was checked - this is the basic functionality of the changes only CCC export. There ...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

...so my best bet is to disconnect the NAS and do the CCC export and forget the MM and API etc... and get the 33 min export. I lose nothing except a long wait. Unless MM starts some kind of faulty behavior due to NAS being offline, hopefully the quick 33 minutes offline status won't raise flags. Th...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

I've read through your write-up, and I have the impression that you are a bit confused on how data moves around. So let's try to level set. For CME: NAS <-> MM <-> MM API <-> CME --> NAS <-> CMC CME pings the My Movies API for data, most of which comes from the MM DB, but MM will scan your NAS folde...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

When I stopped the SQL Server I got this ... It's saying to executereader in the Y: folder I'm pretty sure that's a reference to the developer's PC's drives. I believe Binnerup has (had?) a team of developers, and they're likely working off of a shared network drive, mapped as Y:, so that path is t...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

Why does MM have to login so many times to the NAS? Last look it would log in twice for one title. This is what I mentioned earlier about the Dune data. It's scanning the media folder to determine if it is (going from memory) online or offline, media type, etc., and it passes this data in the XML f...

Re: v7 upgrade problem with Sync

Excellent! Great detective work and troubleshooting, I'm impressed. The possibility of an incorrect date/time crossed my mind, but you beat me to the punch. I'll file this away in my mind to perhaps help other users in the future, thanks! The occasional hang is most likely a server or drive being sp...

Re: Can't see video playing movie with Chemeleon

I don't know that either Cinema or PC mode are better than the other. It's really a preference - I prefer Cinema. But I suggested this as it could help explain why your manual launch results differ from CMC launched results. I think the blanking is related to hardware acceleration kicking in on the ...

Re: Can't see video playing movie with Chemeleon

When did you upgrade to CMC v7? I was released at the end of October. Display drivers might be related, they could have been updated. Did you recently update PowerDVD? Change a PowerDVD setting? One of your TV settings may have been changed. Perhaps it is scanning the inputs. I've got an Optoma proj...
