Serviio

From reading this page: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=metadata

I had the impression that you could have several extractors enabled and give them each a relative priority so that if metadata for an item was not found using extractor #1, serviio would try again using extractor #2. This would be great if it were true (and maybe it is). Right now I hand craft .nfo files for each of my videos. What I'd prefer is to point serviio at an on-line metadata source and only provide an .nfo file as a second order priority for those cases where meta data was not available from the on-line source.

The serviio console only allows me to select one extractor at a time as far as I can tell.

Is it possible to enable multiple extractor types concurrently and to give them priorities as described? If so, how?

Thanks in anticipation

Not yet. It uses prioritized extractors (embedded -> local cover art -> descriptive metadata), but only 1 descriptive metadata source is supported currently. There is an open ticket to do what you want.

OK, thanks for clarifying. I look forward to the new feature arriving if you find the time to develop it.

Really enjoying my serviio media server btw.... excellent work. I'm a Java developer myself so have an idea how much effort and dedication goes into something like this. Thanks!
