  1. Apologies if this is covered somewhere, but I couldn't find it. I have a MBS with MBT setup at home, and this works just fine. I also travel for a couple of months at a time and like to have another MB setup on my Laptop, running the media files from a 3TB Portable HDD. On the assumption that neither MBC or MBT will work as 'off-network' standalone systems (in the same way that I have successfully been using MB2 on the laptop), my plan was to install MBS on the laptop, followed by MBT, linking MBS to the 3TB drive. When I install MBS on the laptop, I have tried 2 scenarios to get it working: with the laptop connected to my home network, which of course has another MBS/MBT setup running on it with the laptop disconnected from the network/internet Either way, when the initial browser opens and I get the 'Welcome to MB' wizard, clicking 'Next' does absolutely nothing. If I right-click the tray-icon and choose 'Configure Media Browser, I get a screen that is devoid of information, except for blank areas (under the Home tab) headed Server Information / Active Devices / Latest News. If I click on the Shutdown button under 'Server Information', it shuts down my home MB server (if the laptop is connected to the network), so it looks as if the laptop's MBS sees the home version of MBS and refuses to do anything in the way of configuration. But if I disconnect the laptop from the network, MBS won't install and/or configure anyway, so I am stuck. Is there a way to get this working on the laptop (hopefully I am missing something obvious), or is MBS just not designed to work on a standalone/off-network system at the moment (or perhaps never). I can of course carry on using MB2 on the laptop, but I assume MB2 will eventually not be available.

    Unidentified TV Episodes

    I am having an issue with 2 episodes of stargate-sg1 not being identified by MB. As you can see from the screenshot https://www.dropbox.com/s/ua5vx19jogaotrl/Screenshot%202014-04-22%2010.35.17.png the episode is in the correct folder and in the correct format, but in the background you can see MBS has a red cross against the title, and is missing the path to the file in the right hand side of the screen
  3. edit: They used to be called collections, now it's media folder...so yeah, should be that items are not showing in their media folder.. Server version: Version 3.0.5211.41935 I recently started running out of space on my tv drives, so I added another, shared it, and added the folders to the various media folders that would use it. I've done this numerous times over the years for different media folder with no issues. One media folder that is on the new drive (Anime) shows up fine, no issues. I added a folder called TV (K:\TV) that contains tv shows. I have this on multiple drives with no issues. I added the UNC path to my TV media folder. I moved a show to the folder a while ago but never really paid attention to it.. Last night I added a new show (Fargo) to the folder. It shows up in the TV view on the server/MBT, but since it's not in a media folder, it doesn't show up in MBC. As you can see, it shows up just fine. It got it's metadata (however, it left the sort name blank, I added that myself). As you can see on the left, usually when you click on a show and edit it, the left panel jumps to it's location in the media folder that it resides in. Since it doesn't show up properly in it's collection, this doesn't happen. There's no way to browse to the show on the left column, you have to go to the show (picture 1) and click edit. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45741371/server-63533476680.txt Here's the log where it's found and added (2014-04-19 20:45:45 is the first reference to the show). There are currently two shows in this tv folder. Both show up in the server, neither are showing in their respective media folder.
  4. I am guessing this is to do with, where you get tv episode data from, but thought I would post it in case it is a bug. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2wt4kjkybph2dyn/Screenshot%202014-04-11%2007.55.02.png As you can see from the image, I have 5 unaired episodes, followed by a missing episode. I have looked on tvdb, but there is not data for episode 23
  5. I think this is tagged correctly as a Server feature request, but it would require something on the clients too. We regularly go on long car journeys, and my kids and my wife like to watch films on their android tablets and windows laptops. Because our library is all very high quality, high bitrate stuff, and as there is no decent connection to stream them, I need to find out what they want before we leave, and then encode the file for them before we leave, and then copy it onto their individual devices. What would be really cool would be if, for example, my daughter wanted to watch Harry Potter on her Nexus 7, she could just navigate to it in the Media Browser app and have the option to download to her device. This would download a lower bitrate version of the film (maybe dictated by the transcoding settings on the client) suitable for her 16GB tablet, held locally on this machine. I'm not sure if this is as simple as I think it is, or if there are legal/copyright barriers but this functionality would be very useful to my family! BTW great work so far, loving Media Browser 3! *Edit* OK, not the best title! How do I change it?
  6. Hi @@ebr @@Luke any way of getting the green ticks (and other indicators) to be on the poster with the diamond treatment? Cheers Edit: I meant to say it looks a bit better with the 'Use original art aspect ratio' ticked in CoverArt but the posters look a bit narrow.
  7. There's two features I would love to see added to the server's remote control API. Of course it would require changes from all client developers as well, but I think it would be worth it. 1. Audio/subtitle stream selection. I know MBC can't capitalize on this, but every other client should be able to play specific streams rather than the default. Especially if transcoding. 2. Add the Id of the client that initiated the last received remote control command in the SessionInfo. The reason I'd like to see this, is for when the mobile clients exit and relaunch, it would be nice to poll the server for currently playing media and if the initiating client ID matches the mobile client ID, expose a now-playing widget in the client. Same concept as what Android is doing with Chromecast when you relaunch the client.
  8. Hi, I've been meaning to ask about this for a while, but haven't got around to it until now. Starting a few weeks ago, I haven't been able to clear notifications from the WebUI. Right now, the Notifications badge says I have 2 notifications, but when I click on it there is actually 5, and I have no option to mark them as read. I did have the option to earlier, but when I clicked on it nothing happened, and now that option is gone. Any help would be appreciated Thanks, Patrick
  9. As the title states in the new web player the status bar at the bottom always stays on. Running win 7 64 bit in chrome 33.0.1750.154 Let me know if there is anything I can check on my end.
  10. Hi all, I have been quiet here for a while but I have been trying to keep an eye on developments of the excellent work being under taken and upgrading when newer version are released. After installation the most recent version of the server my music library doesn't display correctly (ebr will be cringing now). It may just be a config issue, I note lots of new settings. I have briefly checked these but it does appear that this version of MB server is doing something differently? Below is an example of how the folders use to display prior to upgrade And the next image is how the same folder is now displaying after the upgrade Would anyone have idea's of things I can check? I have looked at the library with library explorer (imo I much preferred the look of the old library explorer) and can't see any obvious differences. TIA
  11. My HTPC goes to sleep until I use it, and when it wakes it often requries me to click the 'Couldn't connect to Server. Retry?' button. Would it be possible to add a setting to allow MBC to automatically retry connecting to the server (maybe for 15 seconds or something) before prompting the user?
  12. Hi I'm having a weird issue with getting images for my Collections created by the plugin Auto Box Sets (v. 0.0.1.5). My metadata "Preferred language" and "Country" is set to Danish and Denmark. For all my Movies this works fine, it gets the Danish versions of images if there is any, if not it gets the English / No Language / top voted from themoviedb.org. But for my Collections / BoxSets it's not getting the "English" or "No Language" from themoviedb.org if there aren't any in danish. I can change my "Preferred language" to "English" and then "Browse Images" on a Collection folder, then "English" Images will show up but still not the "No Language" ones. I have tried with my Collection of RED -> http://www.themoviedb.org/collection/163902-red-collection And it sure has some Backdrops and Primary Images but i just wont fetch them if the language of the images is not the same as the "Preferred language". And since most Backdrops are "No Language" i cant get those other then getting them manual and uploading them to each Collection. System: Server Version: 3.0.5174.21980
  13. The New method of creating Media Library folders does not allow using the same name. Method before the last server update This allowed multiple users to use cross shared folders and at the same time keep using the same name "Movies". Parental Rating has no relevance here. User-Admin Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Admin \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-A \\SERVER\Movies\User-B \\SERVER\Movies\User-C \\SERVER\Movies\User-D \\SERVER\Movies\User-E \\SERVER\Movies\User-F User-Guest Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest User-A Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-A \\SERVER\Movies\User-D User-B Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-B User-C Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-C \\SERVER\Movies\User-E User-D Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-D User-E Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-E User-F Media Folder Name: Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-B \\SERVER\Movies\User-E \\SERVER\Movies\User-F New Method current server version This method now requires new names for every similar media folder type attached to each user when folders are not being shared. There is no consistency. User-Admin Media Folder Name: Movies (only the jerk that runs the server gets to keep the name Movies) \\SERVER\Movies\User-Admin \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-A \\SERVER\Movies\User-B \\SERVER\Movies\User-C \\SERVER\Movies\User-D \\SERVER\Movies\User-E \\SERVER\Movies\User-F User-Guest Media Folder Name: Movies for Guests \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest User-A Media Folder Name: A's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-A \\SERVER\Movies\User-D User-B Media Folder Name: B's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-B User-C Media Folder Name: C's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-C \\SERVER\Movies\User-E User-D Media Folder Name: D's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-D User-E Media Folder Name: E's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-E User-F Media Folder Name: F's Movies \\SERVER\Movies\User-Guest \\SERVER\Movies\User-B \\SERVER\Movies\User-E \\SERVER\Movies\User-F Please forgive me, I have taken a bullet for the community and decided to install Plex which is a direct competitor. Here are my findings. Creating a media folder called "Movies" Creating a second media folder called "Movies" which is allowed Two media libraries/sections of the same name created Sharing similarly named folders with other users The competitor is allowing same names for media folders. They are as simple as any media software can get so I don't understand how this has been removed from the current version of Media Browser which is supposed to allow more flexibility than Plex but not be as complex as XBMC. Please, I implore the developers to allow this feature to return.
  14. I installed MBS and everything is working fine except automatic downloading of Studio thumbs. I can do it manually but with about 1000 Studios this not something I would like to do. Am I missing something? Cheers, Sander
  15. Auto-Organize is successfully renaming and moving my video files, but rather than putting the video in the correct season folder, it is instead putting it in the main TV Folder. Example: Revolution 2x14, should be put in Revolution Season 2 folder, but puts it in the Revolution folder (top level) instead. Probably a setting wrong somewhere my end, as no one else has reported it
  16. I'm suddenly seeing super slow performance from the web gui, switching between tv and movie for example will take between 2 and 4 mins when it is usually a couple of seconds for anything to show up. I looked through the log and i'm seeing a lot of warning and debugs like this: Warn - BaseItem: Unable to find linked item at xxxxxxxx I've pulled up several of the items it showing that error for in plex and they play fine, plex is also moving at normal speed. https://app.box.com/s/5gb8we3h9r0izui8zws8 is the log if anyone can take a look and has an idea? Thanks

    Recommended OS

    Afternoon all, My current NAS (Thecus n5200) is reaching the end of its life, mainly due to it not supporting HDDs of a large enough volume for my media collection. I had originally planned to replace it with a more modern NAS, but with the advent of MB3 I'm considering building a full-fledged Windows PC to act both as fileserver and as an MB3 server to various clients around the house. I think Windows Server would be overkill for my requirements which include just a handful of clients, with very light loads, e.g. Media Browser and the occasional bit of file sharing. As a result I was planning to just stick a version of Windows 7 (probably Professional to enable RDP) on but I just wanted to get some feedback as to whether this is likely to cause me any problems. Is this likely to work well for fileserving and MB3 server/

    FR: Server - User Messages.

    Here are some Ideas that I thought I would throw out there. The ability for an admin to post messages to users. For example, as soon as a user logs on they will see a message saying something like " The Server will be down from 12AM to 8:AM for maintenance" or inform them of new features or new media added. It could be a message to multiple users or to a single user saying to not forget to do their homework, just whatever the admin wants to do. Also and ability to disable a user account after a certain time. When they log on it will pop up saying that it will log them out after two hours or at nine o'clock. and they will not be able to log back on until 3:30pm the next day. And finally it would be neat if we had a summary page for users like a history of what they've watched and when they watched it, how much time they spend logged in and watching media. etc. etc. I dunno, what do you guys think?
  19. Whenever I log into the server, I have this big empty black box because I don't use MB3 for music. Now, MB3 has support for music playback and all, and I'm trust very much that its fine but I'm not concerned with that. I have my own solutions I use. But whenever I log in to pick something to watch, I have to see this big empty black box, and that shouldn't be. I think something as simple as not showing music if none has been added to the library would be enough.

    Recommended Setup for Live TV?

    Like a lot of others on here, I have some questions regarding setting Live TV. I currently have Windows Home Server 2011 running on a SUPERMICRO 1U 2x L5420 Xeon QC 2.5GHz with 8GB RAM and a 500GB HDD. I run MB3 Server and MCM on it server, and that's basically it. I also have a Synology NAS with 12 TB of storage in it. This is where all my media goes. Then I have 4 Zotac Z-Boxes connected to TVs that we watch all of our TV shows and Movies on via MB Classic. I want to set up Live TV but would like some advice about the best way to do it. Should I get another box, like a Zbox for example, to install Win 7, WMC, and ServerWMC on? Or should I create a Virtual Machine to run under WHS 2011? Before I discovered Media Browser a couple of years ago, I was using Beyond TV. I do actually have two older XP machines that have been decommissioned and are sitting in the basement that have Hauppage tuners in them. I don't know if those cards would be of any use at all. I forget which models they are, but I don't think either of them would fit in the server if I tried to go that way. So I guess I will need to go with either a USB tuner or a network tuner. I haven't done much research into which tuner to buy, so advice on that would be helpful as well. Thanks so much!
  21. When I copy a new movie to the library/folders watched by MS3, is rightly pick up the added content. However it does not seem to be able to recognize it and match it with metadata. The new content is one movie file in one directory, moved to the movie folder. The folder is named as "Iron Man 2 (2010)(1080)". When I then manually goes to the library in the meta data browser and change the name to "Iron Man" and hit update metadata, it works. However, I then still have to manually update the primary image in the metadata browser, as this process does not do that, but retains a screenshot as primary image. Am I doing something wrong since it does not pick up the metadata automatically? BTW, I know I have been after you guys the past days with questions and all. After working with MB3S the last couple of evenings, it is only minor things I have run into. It a good piece of software. Good job, guys and thank you very much for your effort and for putting this out there for free, and for helping out and all!

    Update server with Git...?

    I've downloaded the Git Server downloads and unpacked then went to updater.exe... I dont see the server vs go up... How to keep up to date with all the awesome Git updates?
  23. Hi, the Auto-Organize is a fantastic addition to MB3 and work really well! was just wondering can there be an option whether the file gets moved or copied across. Thanks Lee
  24. Simple question. Are there any known issues that would prevent a successful install or update of Media Browser 3 Server via Remote Desktop? I recently had to rollback to version 3.0.5115.35703 via System Restore because for some reason, after updating to the LiveTV release and configuring ffdshow filters, my copy protected TV shows stopped playing in WMC (another topic for another day). But now I'm ready to upgrade to back to 3.0.5135.31685, but I do not want to wait until I get home. I have some downtime during lunch and I want to try this baby out again! I also want to Install and configure ServerWMC LiveTV Plugin while I'm at it. Does anyone forsee any issues performing this over a Remote Desktop connection? Here's my specs: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit AMD Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition 8GB RAM nVidia 9500 GT 512MB Ceton InfiniTV 4 CableCard Tuner (4 tuners) Thanks!
  25. just had to reboot and serverWMC didn't launch properly. any chance we can get an internal launcher for restarts etc. if there's a problem and we're not at home?? As it stands I couldn't see any other way than from within windows..
