Hi Jack,

The [Duration] field is a read-only field that stores the actual duration of the video file you have. The value is set when the file is imported; different users might have different versions with different duration for the same movie.

ZRatings' Runtime is the official/theatrical runtime for the movie from IMDb/TMDb, which might not be the same as the one you have (for instance, you might have an Extended version of the film).

ZRatings should not overwrite [Duration] (you should not map Runtime to that field), but apparently MC allows it if you set it like that. You should create a new string field called [Runtime] and map ZRatings' Runtime to that field. You can then display [Duration] or [Runtime] according to your needs. I usually display [Duration] on my tooltip, which is the actual duration of the version I have; the official Runtime is less useful. Alternatively, you can just disable the Runtime field in ZRatings, if you don't want it.

To fix the Durations that ZRatings already overwrote... try doing Library Tools -> "Update Library (from tags)".

Ok ZYBEX. Thank you very much for your explanations and good continuation

Greatday Zybex,

Hoping you're doing fine sir,

Sorry if the following question has been asked before:

I'm trying to figure out how to also display the images of those Director, Writer and Producer fields.
The respective JRiver fields are populated and the images of these are within the Actors folder, amongst the actors.
But not showing up, I've got the expressions set to display the [Director].png

I'm guessing it has to do with the added "[Director]" text which isn't present within the field, but has been created within the name of the image at the time imported by ZRatings.
How should i make this work, as just adding [Director] to the expression will not work due the nature of the square brackets.

Thanks for your help again :-)

Hi Mans,
The square brackets are a special character for MC, so they just need to be escaped for MC to interpret them literally. The is done with the fwd-slash, so writing "/[" produces a literal "[".
For instance, if the [Director] field has "Steven Spielberg" and the filename is called "Steven Spielberg [Director].png", you need to refer to it as "[Director] /[Director/].png".

Img tag for file in Tooltip: folder (.png extension must be excluded):

--- Code: ---<img src="tooltip:[Director] /[Director/]">
--- End code ---

Img tag for file in another folder:

--- Code: ---<img src="c:\path\to\thumbnails\[Director] /[Director/].png">
--- End code ---

Happy holidays :)

Mans:
Great and works like a charm !
