starbuck Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Have been having this problem for awhile now. Gameex does not download box art or description of movies. I have install on several computers and still nothing. This version is stripped down to only a few emulators, movies, music and karaoke. Thanks for a great frontend.

Draco1962 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Can we look at your log.txt file too? Also need to know if you are selecting the get metadata option when in the multimedia sections of GameEx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 Hey Draco, I'm checking the box in the setup wizard that is in Multimedia that says download descriptions. Is that the correct box. Ini file attached GameEx.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Hi, I actually checked this for you a few weeks ago and everything appears to be working. Could you post you log please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hi Tom, At home now, and not working here either. Has to be a setting.Yes you did check it and everything shows working but not showing descriptions or boxart. Will send log in the morning when I get to work. Updated codecs etc. and still not showing. Videos work fine. In emulators everything shows up fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Tom, Here is the log file Thank you log.txt GameExOnlineLog.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I don't see anything wrong. It does need very nicely named files to work so it might just be that. I did change the service a while back. Can you access all my web sites okay from the machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Just tried to access some of your sites from the system, I sent the log from. Seem to be able to access everything just fine.What files do you suggest I need to rename. Same names I've used since I've started using. GameEx.

Tom Speirs Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I would do a simple test just to troubleshoot. Its also worth trying the movie module and getting metadata. See what happens with that. It might help me help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tthurman Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 This news release for 14.02 mentions the requirements to get it running. Here's a thread that goes into further detail about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Had done the get metafile before and nothing changed. For the last several hours I've been playing with it and have found the problem. I list my movies as "All American Bikini Car Wash (2015)" If I remove the (2015) the box and description loads. But no where in the description does it show the year of the movie. Is there something that can done so the year made shows up. In the old system it showed the year made. Also I have two pages. One is videos and one is movies. I'm using Adultry theme.They both appear to read from the same path. Videos screen show just titles. Movies show titles,collections, actors etc. If I open one of the folders in Movies it shows movies I used to have in GameEx but no longer do. I went in and cleared out the entries in movies in GameEx but they still show up. Thank you all for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Ill look at the year issue. In relatively newer versions there is a specific folder for "Movies" versus "Videos". Sounds like your issue issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 You can delete the movies[latest].db3 then install if you want to start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Thanks Tom, In the Movies folder, one of the selection is year made. So the database has it. It just doesn't show in the description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Just to let you know this should be resolved now. If not please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I also bruted up the search to the MovieDB just so folks know. It finds everything I can throw at it now but it may be a little overzealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
