Title: Set ID starting point
Post by: DenS on January 13, 2020, 02:13:29 pm

I use the ID as a reference to my discs. Utilizing different ID series (1000, 5000 etc) to designate locations.
Is there a way to set the starting ID number when adding discs?
Right now PVD insists the next ID is in my 1000 series. I'd like to be able to change this as needed.

Thanks
Den

Hello DenS.

I'm not sure it is feasible the way you would like to. Maybe you should try to use "Media Location" field in combination with "File Path" field instead? That's the way how I designate location to any video. What helps me here is Rename Master and the template I made for it in order to mass rename folders to get desired IDs. Mas import and Mass editor in PVD might help in addition. Please check the screenshot attached. Hopefully you'll get at least an idea how to achieve your goal.

Best regards
