| | Posted: | | | | Hi All,
I like to see an option to Add cast / crew import from IMDB.
Especially when you want to add a DVD manually which is not in the database. Also a lot of DVD profiles show only a few actors.
Furthermore I would like the possibilty to see the changes when you download an updated profile. Say a preview of the updated profile so I know if I want to add the new profile.
Best,
Hawkeye |

| | Posted: | | | | IMDB download will never be done. This is a licencing issue, you cannot copy the IMDB database without paying a licence fee.
When you check for updated profiles, you receive a list of all profiles which are newer in the online database. You can do a preview of the new profile, or the new images, by double clicking on the profile in either the profile column, or the images column.

| | Posted: | | | | The legal ramifications of importing data from IMDB and IMDB's lack of accuracy has been discussed over and over on this forum. I suggest you search this out. A plugin is available at goodguy's web site that high-lites profile comparison differences. click hereAlso you can search this out | | | We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own.

| | Posted: | | | | In short, its' not going to happen, Hawkeye. I am going to TRY and be polite, but thos is DVDProfiler NOT IMDb, TCMDb or any other such database. You have the ability to track up to 10,000 titles at IMDb if you wish for free. But we do things the Invelos way not the Amazon way. Skip | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

| | Posted: | | | | @ Hawkeye:
Regarding your second question: if you're looking for an individual preview of an updated profile:
1. Select the profile in your Collection List (should normally be on the bottom left of your screen)
2. Choose "Online" in the top bar
3. Choose "Refresh DVD from Invelos"
4. Choose ""Preview Changes".
You will then be presented a screen in which you can choose which elements of the update you wish to accept.
Is this what you wanted to know? |
