Theater View caption expression help needed
« on: February 03, 2008, 10:27:30 am »

I've been looking my self blind on this expression. Maby some of you can see the problem.
Have split the expression into 5 lines, based on Media/Video type so you can get a better overview.

Audio, Series and Music Video caption works but the rest just get 1's and 0's. So the problem might be on line 3 or 4, or below.

Code: [Select]
If(IsEqual([Media Type], Audio),[Name] - [Artist] - /([Album]/)   //   Rating: [Rating],
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Series),If(IsEmpty([Name]),S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/),S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/) - [Name]),
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Music Videos),If(IsEmpty([Artists]),[Artist] - [Name],[Artists] - [Name]),
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Conserts),[Artist] - [Name],
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Standup),If(IsEmpty([Season]),[Name]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/),[Name] - S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/),[Name]))))

Appreciate any help I can get!

Line 5 has 2 if() functions, the first one asks, "if it's not audio, series,music vid or consert, is it standup?" and the second on says, if it's standup, do one thing or the other depending on the contents of [season]. the end of that season if() question has no closing bracket, and I'm also pretty sure there's a closing bracket short at the end too.
Try the one below and see if that works any better, changes highlighted in red:

If(IsEqual([Media Type], Audio),[Name] - [Artist] - /([Album]/)   //   Rating: [Rating],
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Series),If(IsEmpty([Name]),S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/),S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/) - [Name]),
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Music Videos),If(IsEmpty([Artists]),[Artist] - [Name],[Artists] - [Name]),
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Conserts),[Artist] - [Name],
If(IsEqual([Video Type], Standup),If(IsEmpty([Season]),[Name]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/),[Name] - S[Season]E[Episode]/ (NP:[Number Plays]/)),[Name])))))

-marko.
