MP2-Edit
I like to introduce you a tool to edit the MediaPortal2 media library (ML). As there is no "official" way to
correct mistakes in the MP2 ML I've started developing this tool. Aside this, MP2-Edit is offering help during migration from MP1 over to to MP2. There is a heavy work going on this not even tiny project, so mistakes, bugs and other glitches are to be expected.
Some notes before to start. As there is no "official" way recently available to access the MP2 database, MP2-Edit is using the SQLite database with "illegal" direct access. No other DB plugins than the default SQLite plugin is working with MP2-Edit. All fanart is stored in a cache on local file system of the MP2 server, so MP2-Edit needs to run on the same machine than the MP2 server itself. And as it needs to access system folders it needs to run with Admin rights. All this is planed to be changed later, but right now it's necessary.I like to introduce you a tool to edit the MediaPortal2 media library (ML).

Like all my programs, MP2-Edit is written in AutoIt V3. As AutoIt is not guaranteed to work under Windows 10 the same is for MP2-Edit. Most users did not encounter any issues, but it is possible that you run into trouble, if you are using Windows 10 as your OS when using MP2-Edit.
Removed automatic start and stop of MP2 service to prevent MP2-Edit from crashing when MP2 service isn't responding fast enough.
