Hey all,
first of all im verry thankfull for all your work on this great vid database.
For now 2 Years I upgraded from serveral old versions and with the time my database became kind of buged til now I ignored these little issues cause I thought it might be a genereal bug that will be fixed in future version.
But as nobody else beside me, seems to have this bug it must be my database file that is kind of corrupted.
A long time ago I already adressed my problem but no solution was found.
When ever I add new movies with the automatic import filters ofdb, zelluloid or amazon.de strange things happen. When the Import prosssess starts everything is fine and I see the import progress in the bottom line of pvd. But then strange things happen. Without anny notable logic the number of films that have to be imported rises. These aditonal imports are usually duplicates or empty movie names. As it does not happen with a new database I suppose that there is something corrupted in my database.
So I give it a nother try know. Here is what I plan to do.
1. Export all stored Movies (about 1000) to an Excel file
2. Create a new database
3. Import the data
4. Be Happy
Now my problems: How can I keep my screenshots and movie posters?
Thanks in advanced.

PS: Or is there a way to export the values of the firebird database to a backup table an reimport it in to a new database with the firebird tools?
