Is ther a plugin or option to export the cover art from a collection (preferably with the title as the file name) to a directory?
I have about 1200 movies in my collection and want to export the cover art so I can resize and convert them to png files. I use a Philips TSU9600 remote to control my rig and am using the cover art as buttons to trigger automatic setup and playback.
I did this all manually several years ago with my old remote, but I have to redo the whole collection to bring the size and resolution up to the present capabilities (130x155 pixels at 96dpi versus 70x100 pixels at 72 dpi ).
Thanks

And if you want a handy place to grab the full path, "view source" on any HTML section, and you will see something like:

var DP_ProgramPathThumbnails = "C:\\Users\\MediaDogg\\Documents\\DVD Profiler\\Databases\\CollTest\\Images\\Thumbnails\\";

(The full size images are in the \images folder also)

I remember somebody wrote a conversion script that they used with my plugin DVDProfileLoop, but if you are handy with VB Script or similar, you can cobble something up yourself pretty quickly when you know where to find stuff. Maybe share it when you're done? 

Tada! Covermover.xsl
- get a XSLT-Processor (e.g. Saxon-HE) and install/unzip it to a directory of your liking
- save the Covermover.xsl to the same directory and open the file in a text editor to change the two directory entries according to your setup
- in DVD Profiler goto File - Export Profile Database and put this file the same directory
- open a command-line and change into the Saxon-Directory
- start the processing with:
java -jar saxon9he.jar -novw collection.xml covermover.xsl > covermover.bat

Now just execute the Batchfile and of you go.

cya, Mithi

PS I only used <Title> for naming the covers, if you have two discs by the same name this will cause trouble, but it would be easy to insert additional fields, like <DistTrait>, <ProductionYear> or even <Released>

Mithi, does this works with colons and other invalid filename characters?

as Windows frowns upon them, too.

But thx for the fix.

Hi Mithi,

appreciate your help as i'm getting a cmd error

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Another error is showing

Error occurred while parsing document.

Code:    0xc00ce508
URL:      file:///C:/msx/collection.xml
Line:      733858
Column:  42

any clue idea why this error is occurring ?

Normally the encoding of the exported collection.xml is Windows-1252, not UTF-8
