Media Center Master's Wiki Editing Guide
BestViewedFirefox.png    BestViewed.Google.Chrome.jpg  Ie-logo.png
  • Internet Explorer users need to change the "Document Mode" setting from Quirks Mode to a Standards Mode to view the full contents of this page.
  • IE8 and IE9 - Tools>(F12) Developers Tools>Document Mode, wait for the change in left viewing pane, close Developer's window.

The current version of Media Center Master is 2.05. There are major changes to the program as to how it is represented in the wiki. The changes are on going and makes it difficult to up date the wiki.

As of December 11, 2012, for premium licensed users, only, Media Center Master has it's own, private, NZB Indexing Site. There is no additional account registration required to use the indexing service with Media Center Master. A complete Quick Set-up: Premium Version, Usenet Downloads guide is available in the wiki.

The biggest change in Version 2.04 took place were the "log," and "media summary" viewing area use to be. After adding media and clicking on a title from the media list, several tabs (i.e., Log, Summary, Metadata, and Files) will appear in the right side pane. More tabs are scheduled to be added in the future, such as: Media Info, Trailers/Subtitles, and a Episode Metadata Editor.

There have also been several changes made in the "Settings and Preferences" tabs. Some new tabs, and new settings have been added. The "Renaming" tab was changed to "Organization," and several of the old settings have been move from one tab to another. None of the settings have been removed from the program.

Version 1.32 is used for the examples in the wiki, unless otherwise noted. Although it may take a bit more work to find some settings, the wiki is still a valuable tool for a new user to get Media Center Master up and running. All of the settings used in the guides for a test run are still available, and should be used as described in the guides.

This is a work in progress, please be patient.

Acknowledgement

The intended purpose of this section is for it to be used as a complete manual for a first time installation of Media Center Master. Starting with the "Installation Notes" and finishing with a successful first run.


Additional Information
  • Screen shot examples are taken from a Windows XP Operating System.
  • Clicking on an image will bring up a view of the image in it's original size.
  • Where major differences between operating systems occur; examples from a Windows 7 Operating System are included.

All of the installation guides are written for a new user of Media Center Master using a Premium License Version. Users wishing the use these guides with a Free Version may also use them, as limited by the license restrictions. These guides are written as a fundamental building block in the beginning sections, by condensing and simplifying the actual processing actions of Media Center Master's operations . As a user gets deeper into the installation guides, more of the technical processes are revealed, and the user becomes better prepared for other sections of this reference guide.

Although the guides are specifically written for a new user, they are designed to be "user friendly" for all users. This is done with the use of screen shots and information boxes. A large majority of the steps outlined in the guides include a screen shot to give the user a visual of the outlined steps. The steps in each guide are outlined in a numbered format, if more than one step is required. Located above (a) step/s may be an outlined box, or several boxes, containing additional information relating to the step/s, but the information in the box is not required to complete the step/s. These boxes are classed for four (4) different levels of additional information. The levels range as listed:

  1. Warning Box
    May be used to inform the user of possible deletion/loss of video files, meta-date, images...
  2. Acknowledgement Box
    May be used to inform the user of a possible miss usage of the steps (e.g., the steps shown in the guides are designed for a specific outcome, should a user not follow the guides one by one, in order, the users outcome will be different from what is shown in the guides.
  3. Specific Information Box
    May be used to inform the user additional steps in another guide are also required to complete the how and why explanations given in an "Additional Information" box.
  4. Additional Information Box
    May be used to inform the user what part of the automation process is affected and/or how the step/s affect the automation process...,

The information provided for each box description is not complete, but given for examples to understand their intent. Using information boxes, as containers for additional information, provides a method where an advance user can skim through the guides, quickly, by just reading the steps, avoiding the additional information listed in the boxes.
