The icons are good, but pretty big and I am not sure they will suit everyone, so most probably I'll make them customizable.
--- Quote ---2 options will make me happy
- Client-Server support
- Automatic screenshot making

Both are planned for 0.9.9.
It is very difficult to say when will 0.9.9 be ready, but I hope to release the first beta soon. Customizable information cards are not so easy to implement as I though and the Grid view will take some time, but I am working on it every day...

I think such an option would just invite more confusion. Users need to appreciate there's never any advantage to messing with the integrity of the database by changing filmography information. As for clearing other information—what else is there? If I don't want a biography, I can turn on edit mode and delete it. The only purpose for the clear function that I can think of is for removing erroneous data so it can be updated correctly.

Hmm, that's a good point as well. Ok, stuff like this comes at the end of the 0.9.9 programming, so I'll have some time to think about what is the best way for most users and hear some more opinions.

First 1000x Thanks for this nice App :)
I would like to vote for all choices, if I could
but ...realy hard to decide...4 most important f.... are in my case..
Grid view, Customizable views, Client-Server support, Customizable file scanner
and
Read only version of PVD,..... if I could..
upps repeating my self ;D
what else I would like to be part of features is:
1. multible files for each movie-entrie, ( like *01.avi, *02.avi ).
( maybe this will be included in Customizable file scanner )
2. support for technical-team -> director of photography, camera, sound editor.... -> from IMDb
3. displaing of actor/actress <-> characters in movie-preview
( and memders of technical-team <-> profession )
( maybe it's possible in Customizable views )
4. filtering of movies by awards
5. the ability to add users for a Read only version of PVD to let them vote and comment movies
and displaing of users-votes & -comments
6. the ability to add diffrent kind of images to display them on diffrent positions in movie/person-preview
aka (cover, poster, screenshot, photo, ...)
7. for cosmeticaly purposes only
it would be nice to be able to access the movie-editor in (all)|(default)|(technical)|(image) -> menu-choices
this might give a better handling, maybe without too much scrolling
these are some of my ideas

Welcome to the forum, and thanks for your comments. I don't know exactly what we'll see in 0.9.9, but I'm sure you'll be pleased.
1. This is one of the shortcomings of the current scanner. I'm sure we'll see improvements in the new version. In the meantime, you can still add multiple files manually by separating the full pathnames of each with a "|".
2. I think two factors are going to affect requests of this sort. First, Customizable views and more flexible custom fields will improve our ability to add whatever we want. Second, the Scripting feature gives us the means to get the data for whatever fields we have added. The catch, of course, is that we'll have to do it ourselves. :'(
3. What do you mean by "movie-preview"? The current Actors section shows actors and their roles if Preferences-Movies-Information card Show credits as...roles is set.
4. I was going to say you can Search or Advanced Search to filter, but they don't seem to work properly for awards. We should look at that during beta testing, and see if it can be fixed or improved.
5. Don't hold your breath. ;)
6. It will be interesting to see how Customizable views will be implemented in this regard.
7. Or perhaps Edit this field on a context menu—for quick changes to one or two fields.

Thanks. I might have known a bright guy like nostra would find a way to make me pay for all my "suggestions." ;)
