I see your point. Could it be that your video file has a special character in its name and you named it on a Windows computer? The windows character set is different to UTF-8 of Linux. Try renaming the file name (no accents, no ä,ö, ü).

for poster and banner change try
button
1 - 2 --3 etc-...
Hi Lululla, the version previously rc9 had on the button 2 the function to change the title instead of changing the poster, etc. Changing the title is a highly desired function as it allows to modify the title easily if you have e.g. German title with ü ö ä, etc. Can you reserve one number key button to change the title?
For changing the title you press text on your remote, click enter and you modify all meta data of your video, including the title..
And this is exactly the new way that is really annoying! The previous version had this function right on key "2" and you could modify the title in the virtual keyboard. very quick and fast. It would be highly desired if we could assign same function to a key. How often do you edit the database? How often do you need to change the title to delete parts or special characters?
Or at least, can you show me where I could reassign "direct title edit" on key "2", so I will just modify my local plugin. Thanks!
There is of course an alternative if you have access from your laptop to your box. You can browse to your box and go to the folder , using ftp
ftp://IP of your box//usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/MovieBrowser/db. There is a file called database. You can open it with a text editor, modify and save the file. Typing on a laptop keyboard is much faster than on a remote.

MovieBrowser help is outdated. Descriptions of key functions need to be updated.
Here is the screenshot

Downloaded latest version, started it and tried to edit the metadata on one video. When getting out of the edit mode, openvix crashed.
The crash log is attached.

Hi Lululla,
I clicked on it and I saw a blue bar, saying: This member limits who may view their full profile. So I don't see a link or a zipped file.nekrub2

Lululla, can you please post a link to the MovieBrowser on github? We should be careful and not test with different versions.
Thanks a lot

I got the update from twol some days ago and tested it. When a timer event switches the TV station during watching a video it is no more crashing but shows picture-in-picture.So far so good. The issue with editing the meta data database is another story, a design problem that existed before you converted the plugin to python3.

I know that the Movie Browser is not the MP3 Browser. However, both were created by the same author and having looked into the file called "database" I recognize exactly the same record structure: field1_content:::field2_content:::field3_content:::
Do you want me to tell that this is best practice?

Could create a crash. Was editing one video title and year. When trying to play afterwards openvix crashed.
The crash log is attached.
Furthermore I noticed that when entering the year in the editor the following fields were also populated with the year
Director 2022Country 2022
Genres 2022
Actors 2022
Runtime 2022
I think the movie database is the same type as the one of the MP3Browser (text file with ::: separated). This means no field headers, if some fields are empty there is a risk of mismatch.
