Personal Video Database

Now, that is one, for sure.

In Advanced search, to get the ones that are checked in check box, the string is "=-1". But what is the opposite? Neither is blank, or 0, 1 or NULL?

Instead of a need to press "OK" every single time it happened (and we don't know that easy for which movie it happened), wouldn't be appropriate if PVD could generate log file after mass updating/importing data from the internet (or any other mass/single updating/importing), for which movies data weren't updated/imported for a specific reason (no movies found, socket errors, etc), but to allow PVD continuous updating/importing. Log file with the specific error, as an option in Preferences, would be popped up after importing.

During updating/importing, dialogue boxes about errors would have time limited user response options to be chosen: "Continue" as the default action after 30 secs for example and "Cancel" to cancel the download.

Right now, we have to write down every single failed import during this process, which is not convenient.

Is it possible by design to add some kind of "Like this post", "This post annoys me" buttons to posts, like for example in the picture attahed?

There are four issues described here:

I) Importing movies from IMDb doesn't work properly under certain conditions
II) Searching/reading IMDb by IMDb plugin doesn't work properly
III) Importing movie titles from IMDb doesn work properly under certain conditions
IV) Showing Titles and Original Titles in case they're the same isn't allowed.


Procedure to reproduce the problem:

IMDB plugin - logged in (same results while logged out)
IMDb plugin - all fields are set up to overwrite existing field values, including "Title" and "Original Title" fields.
IMDb site - logged in, page set up in localized language (not english) - (same results while logged out from the site)

I) 1. Importing movie (no file scan), see picture 1 attached, search phrase: Zero Dark Thirty

   2. Select movie, see picture 2 attached:

   2a. box no checked - one PVD movie entry

   2b. full box (greyed) - one PVD movie entry

   2c. checked box - two PVD movie entries??? (see picture 3 attached).

What the heck?


II) Now, let's get back to picture 2 attached - "Select movie" dialogue box. Look carefuly the name of first movie offered: it is 00:30 - Tajna operacija / 00:30 - Zero Dark Thirty" (2012)

Now: 00:30 - Tajna operacija is my contry's local name of the movie

But: 00:30 - Zero Dark Thirty" isn't the name of this movie in any country, and it should be English as original title, right? Why "00:30 - " was added to the "Zero Dark Thirty"? What's with the closing quotes anyway? Keep in mind picture one attached - I entered Zero Dark Thirty search phrase only.

III) No matter what procedure I use, my country's local name of the movie isn't imported?! Re-reading IMDb information doesn't produce desirable result.

IV) How to enable showing both Titles and Original Titles regardless they're the same or not?

I'm not programmer, so I don't understand the issue, but I found something that looks like it link in general to this issue: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/PropertiesConfiguration#imdb.preferredCountry and later http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/PropertiesConfiguration#imdb.aka.scrape.title

Mass imdb update: 263 entries with the imdb top 250 rank, in order to update which 13 entries aren't in the list anymore.

viddb.exe CPU consume: 49%, RAM:178MB VM:158MB

PVD not responding for a long time. Socket errors occur, so I have to keep an eye on my laptop not to get stucked.

Peerblock running, if significant.

Any suggestions, please?
