Not sure if I am doing something but have noticed that the last few movies I have entered, mainly series that the primary genere does not show up when in the Video view but if I go back to content all the items are checked. Entered the series Melissa & Joey and all of the segments where listed as Comedy so nothing odd there but still nothing in the video view.
I have been going back on my old videos and noticed that many of them with either segments or television don't show the primary genre in Video View Explorer grid. Especially if more then one item checked and all seem to be TV Shows. Still occuring with newest templates.
Did note as I go that if I go back into content and unclick and reclick the genre it then shows up like its supposed to. Wierd.

Re: Odd
In the Video View, right-click one of the videos with this problem, and choose Save to XML from the popup menu to save the data to a XML file. Then send this XML to support@fnprg.com.

Re: Odd
Hi Fredrik,
I've searched the forum in order to find a solution to a problem and this post is the closest I've found, but it offers no solution.
My problem is that the video view shows the Genre only if there's no more than one segment in the content. If there are more than one segment, the genre field is not shown.
For example: I tried to catalog a box of 5 DVDs containing the 17 episodes of the documentary music series "All You Need Is Love".
I tried various ways of entering the data (5 media and 1 or 4 segments/media; 1 media and 1 segment; 1 media and 17 segments - see attached screen captures). Of these 3 ways only the 1 media-1 segment showed the genre field. The others didn't althought each segment had "Documentary" and "Music" checked in their Genre tab.
How do I make the genre field appear in the video view for a video with multiple segments?

Re: Odd
By default, if you have a video with multiple segments, it will list the various titles below. You can then click the title to see the details, including the genre(s). You can also display the genres in the video section for multi-segment videos by adding this code in VideoBrowse_Right.xsl (after the Notes field):

|
|
|
Code:
<!-- Notes --> <TR CLASS="fieldrowprevpane"> <TD CLASS="fieldnameprevpane" NOWRAP=""> <xsl:value-of select="/data/fld/video/notes/@name"/> </TD> <TD CLASS="fieldvalueprevpane" WIDTH="100%"> <xsl:if test="notes!=''"> <xsl:call-template name="add-line-breaks"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="notes"/> </xsl:call-template> <BR/> </xsl:if> <A HREF="CMD:EDITMEMO:video,notes,{videoid/@unformatted}"><IMG SRC="EditMemo.gif" BORDER="0"/></A> </TD> </TR> <!-- Genres -->
<xsl:if test="count(contentsgenrelist/genre)>0 and $segmentcount>1">
<TR CLASS="fieldrowprevpane_v">
<TD CLASS="fieldnameprevpane_v" NOWRAP="">
<xsl:text>Genre</xsl:text>
</TD>
<TD CLASS="fieldvalueprevpane_v" WIDTH="100%">
<xsl:call-template name="format-genre">
<xsl:with-param name="genrelist" select="contentsgenrelist"/>
<xsl:with-param name="newwindow" select="'True'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="newline" select="'False'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</TD>
</TR>
</xsl:if> <!-- Borrower/Date Borrowed /Due Date --> |

Re: Odd
Yes! It works!!!
[quote="FredrikN"]By default, if you have a video with multiple segments, it will list the various titles below. You can then click the title to see the details, including the genre(s).[/quote]
Can you clarify this statement? I'm not sure I understand what it means: do you mean that if I edit the video record and click on a specific segment in the "Content" tab I get the segment's record where I can look at the "Genre" tab? This is not what I was after. I want to see the genre while browsing the items in the Video view.
Also, what do you mean by "it will list the various titles below"?
Thanks again.

Re: Odd
If you open the sample database and select a video with multiple segments, for example "The Simpsons - Season 20", you will see the individual episodes listed in the explorer pane. You can then click a title to explore the episode details (rating, director, genre, etc.).

Re: Odd
OK. My mistake!!!
I was using old templates. No wonder I couldn't understand what you're talking about...
After installing the new templates all is clear.
Kind regards,
Winnie
P.S. Will you consider modifing the video mode explorer template so that it will show the genre?
