Support / [SOLVED] Adding deleted movies
« on: October 03, 2010, 01:01:54 pm »
why when i delete a movie it doesn't actually get deleted from database?

i delete movie and when i add it again it asks if i want to add the movie that i added before or if i want to add a new one.
if i select the new one it finds nothing(says no movie found).
i noted that when i select the new option ,then  in lower status bar of pvd (that shows the internet queries) that the search from imdb is done without the search quote (with an empty quote for search )
and if i select the added before movie it gets it from the imdb page of that movie (without searching for it).it load the old movie complete with customized poster that was supposed to be deleted.

but if i search for a completely different and not added before movie (that doesn't show me that dialog to select the old movie or add a new) record the queries at bottom of pvd contains the title i requested for search.
it seems that  imdb plugin is broken in this area.(i cant test other plugin to see if thats true for them too)


the weird thing is that when i want to add "Emanuelle in America" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074473/ and i search for 'Emanuelle in America' it asks with a dialog if i want the new option or the already added and deleted entry .if i select the new option it finds nothing .if i select the deleted entry it load the deleted entry complete with poster added from amazon even though i have not selected the poster option .
now the weird pat is that if i search for 'Emanuelle America' (without the 'in ') to fool pvd to think i want o add a different movie it doesn't find the 'Emanuelle in America' in its list of found movies.
plz help.

Support / [SOLVED] Script manual
« on: October 01, 2010, 01:48:36 pm »
can i learn adding or modifying scripts easily?
do i get this right?: scripts are dependable on plugins? so without a plugin i cant write a script?plugin provides a way to get info from web and makes them into fields and script are customized feilds?

does version 1 of pvd changes scripting and the way they work? so that i can learn now or wit for version 1?
learning script needs programming skills?any specific computer Language?

Support / [SOLVED] big picture for movies and people?
« on: September 27, 2010, 09:33:41 pm »
is there anyway to get the big picture of actors from imdb for their profiles?
what i mean is i get a picture for say this actress  but its with low resolution in pvd because it gets it from that said page ,but if i click on the picture in Firefox it takes me to its original resolution and its much better and i am actually able to see the person face :).
is there anyway to configure imdb plugin to get that original high resolution pic?
is it because pvd doesnt get pictures bigger than a limit?

and sometimes it doesn't get the picture of actor at all like this person http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001721/ that play in tv series 'big love' and in the info page of the actress i click get info from imdb but it download no image.
i check the imdb plugin for people info and there download image is unchecked but for the life of me i cant get it to be check and next time i visit config page its unchecked again . plz separate imdb config for movie and for people so this gets fixed.and when its unchecked(which is always) i still get picture of some people but not all of actors.

in firefox i have greasmonkey and with just a script i hover the mouse over the picture and it show the big picture so its not any heavy programming and i may even be able to do it my self (if there was a good scripting manuals with examples for pvd and if imdb plugin was not a dll but a text file,btw why dll?)

thanks for a great app again :)

Support / [SOLVED] Any way to disable plugins?
« on: September 23, 2010, 02:01:11 pm »
hello
i found this good program and i hope to use it to replace extreme movie manager9 a good app but commercial closed source and not easy to use)

i have this problems

1. how can i disable some plugins .not delete them just disable them,cause i use less that half of them.
like , i use only english plugins and there are a lot of russian pluings( which i suspect is this program creator language)that i don't use at all. if there is no way to disable them is there any way to delete them?

2.i configure imdb plugin for movie info to get aka search result and it stay s that way but when i do the same to imdb plug-in for polple info both imdb plugins setting get reseted to default.(maybe a conflict of names for these plugin settings?)

3. what is the deal with selecting boxes modes. i mean they have 3 mode :empty ,filled with green color, a tick. what is the difference?( maybe update or rewrite but which one  is which)

4. when i use one plugin to get info for a movie (say imdb plugin) and then use another one to get more info for the same movie it rewrites the info( i think because i see more info like a longer description of movie but not not a trace of imdb description).should create and use batch mode plugins to get all of info from both   sources? or can i use the update/rewrite mode of selection boxes for doing this( this is after i get to know how in answer to my last 3rd question.)

5. what is the "merge filmography option in plugins page of preferences?is it for my 4th question?

a somewhat detailed answer would be very appreciated.
