Running 8.5 on OSX 10.5.8, just recently I can’t seem to get all my movies to scrape properly. I just get 100s of titles saying “Movies” and a rating of 1.90! I haven’t had any problems before with naming conventions etc. Any clues?

I thought it was absolutely hilarious that my search for a program to organize TV Shows led me to your Plex application, wherein your video depicts you organizing none other than Arrested Development, Lost, and Oz – three of the four shows I’m organizing!

Coincidence aside, Plex is fantastic. It’s far superior to Front Row or any alternative floating around; the theme music feature alone is ingenious.

One issue I’ve noticed: When trying to replace a season cover via “Set Season Thumb,” the app hangs indefinitely until I force quit. This happens every time I try to edit the thumb for “Fringe” which for some odd reason is displaying “Parks and Recreation” as its season thumbnail.

There were some issues using Plex and Snow Leopard (Apple Remote related amongst others). Are these issues fixed yet? Can I safely upgrade to Snow Leopard at the moment?

I’ve been trying to run front row/understudy and have been frustrated until I stumbled on this Plex. How awesome this program is! Why doesn’t Apple hire you guys and switch our front row to Plex????! Great job really, it works and looks damn good.

@Jiraya: AFAIK, this is a graphics driver bug with X3100 on Snow Leopard. If you search in the forums you’ll find more.

Hi,
I’m running OSX 10.6.2 on a macbook with intel graphics and the menu color in the application looks just awful, but no problems with watching videos.
Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
