QED. Although running it from the desktop is a rather extreme demonstration.  ;)

I don't know why you had a problem over-writing the old script with the new one. If you had used Explorer in detail view, however, you could have easily seen which was which (perhaps Windows changed the extension, so it wouldn't have to overwrite the existing file). Then it would have been a simple matter to delete the old file, and rename the new one. The point of my earlier rant was, in a misguided attempt to make things "easier," Vista obscures straightforward information you need to know and understand in order to maintain your system properly.

Basically that was the issue. No matter how many times I downloaded it or where I saved it the script would always show up as a .txt file and not overwriting the old one since they where different ext. Maybe it was a vista thing but I am just relieved that its working now.

Thanks for the help.

HeadHancho:
This new script was downloaded and used to overwrite the previous one... it does remove the error message but sadly it has a very low success rate (50:50 at best) of identifying the film from the titles I have.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Often, I'm getting a list of possible titles but nothing close to what I am looking for.

rick.ca:
Yes, that why nostra said "The problems with search results will be fixed in the program itself a bit later." I don't know why, but it's obviously not something that can be addressed in the script itself.

And now back to my questions... ;)

Now that I'm running out of new things to add, I'm eyeing the Similar Works section (under Plot Synopsis). Is it possible to grab that list and add the movies to PVD's Connections (as a separate section, I suppose)—or is that beyond the scope of a script?
