Do the shortcuts suppose to have icons? There’s none on mine.
I then tried to set the icon annually, as it appears possible according to the manual(pg 47), But I can’t get to it.

I’m running OML in windows 7 7100 but I could not manage to open Media Library Settins in the media center. What am I doing wrong? By the way I think OML is much nicer than the Browse Media.

Cool,

Im glad your covering non-media browser alternatives.

I hope , as Media Browser moves towards a paid model the community shifts its focus to supporting them the same way we championed and supported Media Browser…

That we’re about to be charged for …..

The trouble is with the OML registration file and Windows 7. I've added a couple of registry files to the custom menu strip pack that will let you add it to the Media Browser strip.

OML doesn’t appear on my Media Center start menu. I’m assuming this is because I’ve used the registry hacks on this site that are for Media Browser. It also does not appear in the Extras Library so I’m not sure how to start it. Would I have to reset the start menu to its default configuration and reinstall OML to fix this?

OK, I got that to work well enough, the only problem I had was getting it to recognize my movie names. I used Yammm to rename my movie files and include the year as you can see in the shots above. The problem is this causes no results to come back from themoviedb.org (I haven't tried the other services yet).

Yeah – it is a little hard to tell that you have multiple selected, and the new look changes that, but you can highlight your first one, and then hold Shift down and select your last one and they will all be selected.

TheGringo – Like Michael said – if you can post your logs on our forums we can help to debug what might be happening with the application. I am using .3b on Windows 7 RC (Build 7100). I am not aware of too many users using it on windows 7, but we definitely want to make Windows 7 a supported format.

The only prerequisites listed by the OML documentation is the .Net Framework 3.5. You can find debug logs for the program in C:\ProgramData\OpenMediaLibrary\Logs, perhaps that can shed some light on the problem.A thread on the details of Media Browser moving to a paid plugin can be found on the Media Browser forums here.
