MyMovies for SageTV

[Awake]

So I installed the new MyMovies plugin, and it ALMOST works correctly.

Everything seems to work, but I can't get the 'Play' function to work.

All the movies display correctly, in various layouts, and I can highlight a specific movie, but I can't get it to play.

I have tried keyboard and remote control, but the highlighted movie just sits there, nothing happens. I don't get an error message or anything. It just doesn't start playing.

Either I am missing something obvious and silly, or there is some configuration piece that I am missing.

Movies play normally through the 'regular' SageTV interface.

Any ideas?

Your paths are not the same in sage and mymovies. I believe it is case sensitive also. Check out the wiki.

import directories must match what import directories you are using in !SageTV.
ie: you can't use \\\server\videos\moviename in !SageTV and C:\videos\moviename in MyMovies. The collection manager path and the !SageTV import paths must match.

Correct and rebuild your database after you correct either to fix the issue.

Maybe this message needs to be popped up in a big window when someone installs the plugin. This seems to be the #1 issue with people getting this running.

It also sounds like you have enough information to get the path from MM and the import path from Sage so that if they press play and the paths do not match you can popup an error window telling them whats wrong.

Yeah there will be a detailed popup in the next build just had to add some coding and didn't get it into the last build.

That should save on a lot of cut and pasting of the same answer :P
