Show localized AKA movie title?

<< < (2/3) > >>

nostra:
Actually the design of the application assumes that you save the localized title as "Title" and original title goes to "Original Title" field. All other titles are meant to be in Aka field.

Ok, THAT i didn't notice lol

So, ignore ALL i said so far  ;D since the program already saves "Original Title" and (localized) "Title" per IMDB settings, all it is missing is an option where we could change the movie list between "Original Title" and "Title". Maybe in the form of a button in the toolbar?

I still have problems getting the localized title from IMDB, this is what i got so far: i have IMDB configured to Portuguese, i added login information to IMDB plugin (the one in bold by default), i copied/pasted the login/pass to IMDB login page just to check they were right, then i tried scanning a folder with an AVI (You don't mess with the Zohan). The "Title" created by PVD was the same has the original title, yet in IMDB is "Não te metas com o Zohan". So my question now is: do i have to type the (localized) title manually, or should the (localized) title be read from IMDB by PVD (which isn't happening)?

Did you configure the plugin to overwrite the title? (You need to fully (not grayed) check the checkbox next to the field name on the list below plugins)

THANKS! Because the checkboxes were all checked, i didn't notice they were grayed behind the check, so i just "ungrayed" those two checkboxes. Title list is still in English like i like it, but movies are now saved with Portuguese Title and Original Title.

Maybe a button to switch between Title and Original Title in the movies list could make its way to a future release?  ;D

You guys are great, thanks for all the help, that's what makes a great program even greater ;)

EDIT1: The movie list changes to Portuguese Titles after all, so for now i'll keep them in English. If (or when?) it becomes possible to list Original Titles instead of Titles, all i have to do is add the IMDB login info, then CTRL+A in the Titles list and press the execute plugin button :)

EDIT2: It doesn't change the List Titles after all, the Title in the list only changes if i edit the film after updating the Title to Portuguese with IMDB! Weird, but it works for now  :)

EDIT3 Argh i hate editing, but i hate double posting even more... well the Titles list changes after all, so i'm back to EDIT number 1... nobody is perfect!

The title used in the list is set at Preferences > Movies > Title formatting. If titles are changed by running a plugin, the changes likely won't show in the list until it has been refreshed.
