Hi,

You can use ThumbsViewer.Color= in [MainWindow] to change background color of thumbnail view.

TFrameViewer

Post by J »

hi,

I like to use an iframe for an upcoming HTML-view template, which is currently not supported. As far as I understood, the ThtmlViewer is used to show the HTML templates in AMC. Would it be possible to integrate the TFrameViewer instead to support (i)frame view?

The idea behind is to change a picture in HTML-view by an click on an object/link.
I'm trying to do a thing like that:

Code: Select all

<iframe src="$$ITEM_EXTRA_PICFILENAME" id="imgbox"></iframe>

$$ITEM_EXTRA_BEGIN(Stills,,1,3)
<a href="$$ITEM_EXTRA_PICFILENAME" target="imgbox">$$ITEM_EXTRA_RECNR</a>
$$ITEM_EXTRA_END
for example

Code: Select all

<iframe src="./pic1.jpg" id="imgbox"></iframe>

<a href="./pic1.jpg" target="imgbox">1</a>
<a href="./pic2.jpg" target="imgbox">2</a>
<a href="./pic3.jpg" target="imgbox">3</a>
works nice in the browser, but nothing in AMC.

thanks
J.

EDIT:

OK, after some more testing the using of iframe is also not sufficient because I'm not able to resize the content within the iframe.
I tried several different ways to implement such a funtionality, but most of them need Javascript or CSS3 and even :hover does not work anyway.

So because I found no way to include a "click/moveover-to-change" functionality I will include it anyway, but it's only working when you export an HTML an use the template in the browser.

Sorry, I ran out of ideas.

Is there a way to update the program so it shows mediainfo for .m2ts files when importing movies?

Hi Teebee,

I don't understand your problem.
MediaInfo.dll can already read info from .m2ts files.
Maybe you don't have extension .m2ts in "Extensions" field in import window that why you don't see your .m2ts files after import.
Just add extensions of files you want to import in "Extensions" field in import window or in preferences.
If MediaInfo.dll can read the file, it will do it.

Now i get most info, but movielength remains 0. Is that an issue with mediainfo.dll or moviecatalog.exe ?

Hi

According to my quick test, systematic error when trying to use the scripts:
socket error #10022, invalid argument
Tried both a clean installation in a dedicated folder and also to update version 4.2.0.

Hi,

Do you have the same problem with AMC 4.2.0, because I don't remember to have changed anything on scripts engine in AMC 4.2.1.

I rolled back to 4.2.0 (reinstalled) and all is going fine.

But 4.2.1 systematically and immediately prompts this error, even with a from scratch clean install, whatever the script, from an existing or an empty library... (win 7 - 64bits) :/

Also unpacked the RAR version: ditto.

This is strange, I have not seen this error and I don't remember to have changed anything on scripts engine in AMC 4.2.1...
What script do you use for example ?
Are you sure the version of the script is the same between AMC 4.2.0 and AMC 4.2.1 ?
Do you use a proxy ? And if so, do you have modified preferences to add proxy configuration ?

No way to make the 4.2.1 binary to run a script...

Even after copying the scripts from 4.2.0, shutting down AV & FW, installing and running from an admin account, etc.

No proxy configured, no script starting (allocine, dvdfr, update script, ...).

I will try to install on a W7 32bits soon and let you know if i observe the same behaviours.

Am i the only one facing this issue? :hum:

No problems on my side. I did the test with AMC 4.2.1 (Portable version) and i've not encountered any scripts problems whatsoever under Windows 7 64 bits (Premium Family Edition) or Linux (Mint 17 Mate) + Wine (1.6.2).

By the way, thank you soulsnake for this version.

You mean that it only works when you run it as admin? That's strange, AMC shouldn't need admin rights

No, actually i ran it once as admin, since that it's running OK without any additive action.

But for the thumbnail-images view I am not sure it is possible (it was made by soulsnake, and I haven't checked in the code).
Thank you for this!

@Soulsnake: what is the syntax for changing the color of the font of the listing movies in [MainWindow]?

Hello,

When displaying the tab "All views" (ie. list + standard fields + custom fields), is there a way to force the custom fields docking view width?

I tried modifying "prefs.xml", and it seems this width can be set indirectly thanks to "MovieInfosBothWidth", but i cannot set a value over 811.

Any other way to force this width?? :??:

Thx.

Hi,

@sstavross

If you want the syntax for the color, you can look this website :
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudi ... ors_in_VCL

If you want the syntax to change the background and/or the text color of the movie list and/or thumbs viewer:

Code: Select all

[MainWindow]
; Movie list background color
Listview1.BkColor=$FF00FF
; Movie list header text color
Listview1.Font.Color=$0000FF
; Movie list item text color
Listview1.TextColor=$00FF00

; Thumbs viewer background color
ThumbsViewer.Color=$FF00FF
; Thumbs viewer item text color
ThumbsViewer.Font.Color=$00FF00
@Octopod
When displaying the tab "All views" (ie. list + standard fields + custom fields), is there a way to force the custom fields docking view width?
You can easily change the width of movie fields panel and custom fields panel in "All views" by using the bar between this two panels.
This width will be saved in prefs.xml to keep this width when it is possible.
But custom fields panel and movie fields panel have a minimum width that you can not override, even if you change this value in prefs.xml file yourself.
