South Park has 14 seasons and SNL has like 35 or so.... maybe that is the issue.

I couldn't duplicate that error with either of those series.

The tool is able to handle up to 99 seasons, with 99 shows per season... 

Can you reproduce that issue?   If so, what are the EXACT STEPS and SETTINGS you used?

Just wondering if we can create our own xml files for say the season? For example say dexter, when we click on dexter it shows what year/actors etc up the top and down the bottom lists what seasons we have on the hub.

No, the tool doesn't look to see what files are present.

Is it possible to do this part without the tool? Or simply not possible? Cheers

I think your question has to do with THEMES, not this particular tool, right?    If so, I would recommend you post your question in the THEME forum.

What a great tool! This is exactly what I need. I only have a few questions:

When I want to process Desperate Housewifes (73800), I'll get the following error:

And, what do I need to to to clear the 'cache' on the WDTV live, sometimes the old .mxl info is showed. I cleared the media library and the info in the '/WDTVLiveHub/.wd_tv/thumb' directory, but for example the new backdrop images in the .xml are not shown.

And a final thought, would it be nice that the program also created a 'folder.jpg' file?

Again, thanks for this great tool!!

Having an issue with the banners being displayed as backgrounds, although I think it is the hub that is playing up and not the tool at all.

On some of my TV shows it is displaying the incorrect banners. Eg Big Bang Theory is showing the Supernatural banners.

I do think this may be a problem with the hub and the way it caches some information. Anyone else having issues like this?

The tool is somehow remembering the last set of banners.  If you close it down and open again it only loads the banners in for the new episodes you searched

Forgot to say great tool this will save me hours of work, thank you Tony

Just tried to recreate the issue and it worked fine this time! Not sure what the issue was.

I think this is a great idea too - having the option to download the DVD Season art as 'folder.jpg'

This is an awesome tool!  Thanks!
