leedavies 301 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Hmmm.... that's odd. Does it only affect TV show episodes? e.g. do all your other media items play OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 My money is on it is something that is mis-recognized and the system is getting a folder when it expects a series or something. Not sure how that relates to playback, though so I want to hear from the OP to find out if this is actually occurring at play time or maybe when they are navigating.

ebr 14903 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 psmc - does this actually happen right when you hit play? When you hit the play button on the remote or a play button on the screen? Lee, I can't figure out what, in the playback chain, would be causing this type of UI issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedavies 301 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Nor me, cos it's just invoking the play action for the media. It looks more like I've got a rule that's not getting the environment or variables state it's expecting for some reason, but I've not heard this from anyone else. Or some rule that's firing on a playback start detect that's stuffing something else as a side-effect. Lets see what answer comes back about timing of the error. I'm also interested to know if it's just a Detail view issue - does it happen in Thumb, Coverflow etc. Depending on that outcome, I might just sort a special debug build to track what's going wrong. My money is on it being something really stupidly simple. :-) Edited October 30, 2013 by leedavies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psmc 8 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Hi lads Sorry about the wait... This happens only to these new episodes or folders i have adjusted (as in added an episode to) and only in crystal ...movies worked fine i just added a new stand up comedy dvd (mp4) to the movies playlist worked no problem ...seems confined to series and only new series/episode in crystal ...the error pops up just as the pic up there appears as i click the series folder inside the main folder of the Series (Mash in this case) to bring me to the thumbs (episodes) ...One thing i did notice is, when the missing series were on there like the pic above there i had no problem clicking into them empty folders & just got the standard error when i clicked on the thumbs you do not have this ep.

psmc 8 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 I have tried moving the entire folder too and the same thing happens old series are fine new ones get the above error ..Thanks for looking into it btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leedavies 301 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Interesting. If you have a season you have recently adjusted highlighted (not entered into) and hit CTRL-R to manually refresh the contents within it, then wait until the disk activity stops and it's finished. Do you still get the error afterwards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedavies 301 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hang on a minute.... you are clicking on a season or an episode you DON'T have saved locally and are getting this error? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Okay, this makes a lot more sense. This doesn't have anything to do with playback as you are never getting that far. I'm going to adjust the title of this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psmc 8 Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) I have them all locally.. disc E is inside the pc (sata connected) the drive is just called "backup" (main storage really) all are set as per instruction on page settings (edit:added pic) Edited November 1, 2013 by psmc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedavies 301 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 From your screenshot, you are getting the error when you navigate INTO the season folder? And this is a season folder that DOES exist and for which you have ALL the episodes on-disk? Can you be clear on exactly what the steps to get this error are.

psmc 8 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 just as the most recent pic points out ...the error is confined to the new episodes (recently added) From your screenshot, you are getting the error when you navigate INTO the season folder? YES, error only pops up on clicking the season folder & prevents me from going any further using Crystal until i close MB and open it again. And this is a season folder that does exist and for which you have ALL the episodes on-disk? YES/ Standard HDD DISC inside..ALL EPISODES..NO as above pic shows i have a few episodes for each season as it's only just started again on tv ...they're being added daily ...this is only one series though...it applies to any folders in TV that have been modified in any way in crystal... (added posters,episodes,xml). I have tried the latest episodes added to confirm all is correct, using the Neo theme...removed reloaded & refreshed No issues at all... again the problem is confined to series, newly added or modified ...movies /boxsets etc all perform as they should, perfectly, using the Crystal theme ...just the tv eps :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedavies 301 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Do you have ROC? If not, download the trial and try the same in ROC. Does it work or behave the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psmc 8 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 I Tried that earlier but as i had the trial the day it came out first on MB2.62 i'd have to buy it or can you swap them over somehow ? Also today i have taken the folders apart folder by folder removed all contents to repopulate, tried it under different names put the videos through a new convertor just about everything i can think of and yet the same issue & again everything under an old plugin is fine...the only thing untested is as u say ROC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psmc 8 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 Ok @leedavis this is interesting ...I had ticked the box in the desktop app for creating a snapshot from the episodes from the start. Just now I unticked the box and refreshed the folder ...heres what happens 1 .The new series i have been adding (above), the folder contents no longer populate with metadata or posters 2. coverart fails to treat tv folder 3.I can now enter all affected folders. 4.the file can now be played !

ebr 14903 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Okay, so that points to some potential corrupt images being pulled out of these new video files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psmc 8 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 (edited) OK So i refreshed the folder without this option on and got the coverart back working and the folder art back also (This is without the above option on ) but when I went to click back into the season the error returned So that cant be it either i guess Edited November 2, 2013 by psmc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me your MB3 supporter key and I'll sort you a ROC licence so you can test whether ROC behaves properly and if it's just a Crystal issue. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
