leedavies 301 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks for the info.... will sort that feature in both themes. This is the first time I've heard about this cool feature of MB3. So it shows you all the episodes in a season, even though you may only have some of them in your library right now? Is there anything beyond just showing the missing episodes? e.g. legal streaming or downloading via Hulu etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36884 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 No internet streaming but you can query for upcoming episodes in case you want to do a view for that. Look at what's in the web client for example. I'm sure your users would gobble that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboehler 94 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi Lee, Now that Media Browser 3 can display Missing and Un-aired Episodes, we need some way to distinguish these from the episodes that actually exist in the collection. Is there any chance that you can implement something in Crystal and Roc to do this? As it is now, the missing episodes and some un-aired episodes (the ones that have poster images) look like regular episodes. That is, until you try to actually play one and you get a message stating that it does not exist in your collection. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14861 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Lee - of course this feature will require a MBC-specific version of the theme but one thing you could do that will be compatible between versions is bind your on-screen play buttons to Item.IsPlayable. That way, at least the play button won't show up for these as a stop-gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROC uses this data in all views now (although Thumb and Detail are not yet live - v soon). Crystal will be catching up very shortly too... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can see the prefixes for approved, completed etc, but selecting one of them seems to do a postback, but the discussion is unchanged and I can't seem to make the approved/completed etc status icons appear for a discussion.

heula 189 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 How does this work? How can I see those un-aired episodes? I only see my episodes that are in my network. On all views. Checked show un-aired items in the config. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboehler 94 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Here is an example of a show that has some missing and future episodes both: Normally there are posters for the missing episodes and for some of the future episodes. But in this case, there are none to be found on the net... Edited November 11, 2013 by mboehler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have enabled show missing and un-aired items in the config but I only see my "NEW" items and no missing or future items. Do I need the MB3 metadata enabled perhaps? I use metabrowser 2 for some reasons instead of metadata from MB3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heula 189 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Yes you need to enable automatic updates from the metadata page in the server. Okay then I will need a server request since I'm not using that because it messes with my Dutch MPAA ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will probably have to do this for each collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboehler 94 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Locking the rating is not inherited. You have to do it for each individual item. it will be easier later with bulk editing. Gotcha.

Luke 36884 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 No you don't need to enable automatic updates. That never came from me. But you do need internet providers enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
