Metadata

With version 2 it is not possible to schedule movies Videos where the metadata is not available and such movies Videos are shown in red. Reading out the metadata is done in the background and is only started in case metadata is visible in the Library. Changing the width of the Name column so that no metadata column is shown in the Library avoids that the background service is started resulting in unusable moviesVideos. Changing the width the order of the columns so that at least one metadata column is shown, or scrolling vertically in the Library solves the problem. We recommend to change the width of the Name column so that at least a few pixels of any other column is shown.

Make sure all movies Videos are available, in case reference movies Videos should be used. Trying to play out broken or unsupported movies Videos can harm the final output and even crash the engine.
