Is this working for anyone. I'm getting a bad URL message.

It works fine. It's most likely an incompatibility with the file name you are trying to use. Let me know what the file name is for when you get Bad Url.

Wow. This plugin is amazing.

Thanks!

Glad it's working out for everyone. Also, give applause to the author of BTVShowInfo for providing such a great interface to work with.

I made the assumption it would accept the BTV naming convention. Seems I might have uncovered a problem with the manual mode it goes into when it can't decipher the file name.

Ok, I'll use your naming convention and test out the manual mode to see where the problem is.

That's some fine work there

I had customized my BTVShowInfoCols.xml file, so it didn't work at first. I restored the backup of the original file that I'd made and now I'm in tagging heaven.

Many thanks!

Can you try this version of the plugin? What it does is checks if the show is a BTV recording and will ask you for all the show info, including season number and episode number. If not, it goes through the regular process. If it works, I'll make the revision final. And I can't with 100% confidence parse the file name and figure out the show season and episode details so I needed to leave that up to the user. But again, BTV recorded shows will have details from the EPG already, so I'm not quite sure this revision is ever really going to be useful.

Just noticed this. Will check it very soon. Thanks!

Couldn't it match up the original air date from the from the BTV recording with the info from database? I think it would be useful bedcause some stuff like new South Park's have no description or title. Other things, like SciFi's shows don't have descriptions all the time either. I would definitely use that if you added that in.

I've thought about it, but never really committed to it. I'll take a peak at it.

Done. See first post for update. It will recognize a BTV recorded show and pull the series name and original air date and use that to search the database and pull season, series and episode info. Let me know if there are any problems since I did very limited testing on this.

I am wanting to manipulate this application purely with keyboard. I don't want to use the mouse.

[tmar89]

Again, I can't help out that because the author of BTVShowInfo is not around and I don't have access to the code.
