TCMediaInfo 1.0.2 not working

Post by *mikedepetris »

Can anybody help me? I found I need to install it having TC launched as Admin, anyway the zip package does not contain a .WLX nor it is installed, how should I configure it to work as a lister plugin?

The plugin archive, e.g. wdx_wlx_tcmediainfo_1.0.1.zip.

TCMediaInfo is a multi-plugin, meaning the TCMediaInfo.wdx (or TCMediaInfo.wdx64) can also be used as a Lister plugin. Just select the WDX file when you want to install it as a Lister plugin. Yes, this fact/feature is not immediately obvious and could probably be explained in a little more detail in the included help, but that's just the way it is currently.

should I rename it to *.wlx? The options panel does not let me select the *.wdx, or should I put the line directly in the wincmd.ini?

EDIT: Ok, I did it, I simply added the line in the wincmd.ini:
10="c:\Program Files\totalcmd\plugins\wdx\TCMediaInfo\TCMediaInfo.wdx"

it seems it added by itself:
10_detect="MULTIMEDIA | FORCE"

it works as a lister pluging too now.

FYI: When adding a new plugin, in the Open dialog you can type *.* as filename to disable the file type filter (*.wlx in this case). After that you can select any file as a plugin file (*.wdx in this case) to add as any plugin type; so long as the plugin itself supports it of course.

In other words: One can edit the wincmd.ini but it's not necessary to do so.

TCMediaInfo v1.0.3 was just released, offering the same bug introduced with v1.0.2: The display of the ampersand character (&) in filenames is broken. TCMediaInfo v1.0.1 works just fine with those, though.
