Automatically put pictures to movies, music ...

[bkh 6]

Some pictures will get automatically to movies, music etc. e.g. poster and logo to movies, folder to music ...

 

maybe it woud be possible to put back to movies and music, thumbs to movies, box to movies and music, background to both

 

 

Would be great

Hi bkh,

 

Do you mean that some of your libraries are saving metadata (images) in folders but some libraries are not?

Can you please go over an example? Thanks.

[bkh 6]

Yes, all of my libraries saving pics into folders, for

 

music - folder, back, box, disc, disc1 ..., ,

movies - poster, thumbs, fanart, back, box, clearart, ...

 

artists, thumbs,

 

and so on

Great

 

could you explain a little more about what you are experiencing and how it is different from what you expect to experience?

Here is the screenshot of the result from Bravo Hits 14. Only the folder.ext will be imported to the database. The other ones won't.

 

a (very) simple algorithm

 

Music Images

if found folder.ext or {name}-poster.ext in directory put to database

 

same for the others as described in the wiki

Image Type Supported file names Primary folder.ext   poster.ext   cover.ext   default.ext Art clearart.ext Backdrop backdrop.ext, backdropX.ext   fanart.ext, fanart-X.ext   background.ext, background-X.ext   art.ext, art-X.ext   extrafanart (subfolder)/fanartX.ext Banner banner.ext Disc disc.ext + disc1, disc2, ... discn   cdart.ext Logo logo.ext Thumb thumb.ext   landscape.ext Box box.ext

 

Video images

nearly the same

 

Image Type Supported file names Primary {name}.ext   {name}-poster.ext   {name}-cover.ext   {name}-default.ext   {name}-movie.ext   folder.ext   poster.ext   cover.ext   default.ext   movie.ext Art {name}-clearart.ext   clearart.ext Backdrop backdrop.ext, backdropX.ext   fanart.ext, fanart-X.ext   background.ext, background-X.ext   art.ext, art-X.ext   extrafanart (subfolder)/fanartX.ext Banner {name}-banner.ext   banner.ext Disc {name}-disc.ext   {name}-cdart.ext   disc.ext   cdart.ext Logo {name}-logo.ext   logo.ext Thumb {name}-thumb.ext   {name}-landscape.ext   thumb.ext   landscape.ext Box {name}-box.ext   box.ext

Do to the naming of the images in  that folder only Folder/Cover.ext are recognized as Primary image and folder will have priority over cover.

 

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Music-naming#music-images

 

I still don't understand the question here though.  Are you asking for additional image naming schemes?

[bkh 6]

Nope,

 

except box.ext it is the same scheme as described in wiki.

 

But, only poster/folder/logo (thumbs sometimes) is automatically put into database of album/movie etc. The other pics will be ignored and has to been added by 'Edit Images'.

For about 15000 albums it will be a hard work.

Multiple disc naming is not supported only disc.ext.

 

I don't see anywhere "inlay.ext, backin.ext) images are supported, at least in that naming scheme.

 

Box (rear) is back.ext

 

 

But it would appear undocumented back.ext, box.ext, menu.ext does work.

[bkh 6]

Sure, you are right. It will be supported, but only manually not automatically.

 

In the most directories there is minimum on file back.ext and none of it will put automatically into the database.

 

My wish is to put theme automatically, not the support as itself.
