Support / Backup indicator in v.0.9.9.21 ?
« on: March 27, 2013, 12:12:56 am »
Hi All,

While backing-up my PVD, I notice that every time it responds differently (with WinXP Pro).
1) Either the confirmation (to overwrite) Window remains greyed, or
2) The confirmation window disapears after clicking the OK button and nothing seems to happen (for some minutes). Then suddenly the screen is sort of refreshed and I can understand that the backup is complete.

Is this normal?

Could we have some indicator of the backup progress (i.e. a bar indicator)?

Thanks for any help.

Support / IMDB (Movies) vs IMDB (People) plugin
« on: March 12, 2013, 10:11:51 pm »
Hello all,

Just came across a peculiar problem (v.0.9.9.21 with latest above plugins, on Win XP): If you turn off "Images" on the first plugin (i.e. to update episodes which have no image, avoiding the "404 Error"), the second plugin (people) disables also the "Images", so when you download a person's information, you don't get his picture!! You have to go back, change the configuration and reload.

That means that before any action, I have to check first at Imdb's site -IF there are any Episodes' images- and change every time my plugins' "Configuration", which is a huge delay....

Also if "Images" is disabled, there is no poster download from Imdb for the Movie/Serie.

Is this a bug or "normal procedure" ? Can somebody do something on improving this procedure ?

Any advice is welcomed.
Thanks,
gear

Support / Double Entries in Films
« on: March 03, 2013, 06:56:20 pm »
Lately, my PVD 0.9.9.21 with the IMDB plugin 0.9.8.12 which I am still using (with he <span> bug) started to act strangely:

I press the button for "new movie master", enter the film name and date and press the "Go" button. After searching it comes up with a window and give me a selection of titles. Usually it is the first one. I tick the box next to the film and press the OK button. Then usually, I get "No movie found" message and press the OK button on it. The program continues searching and a new window opens to chose the cover of the DVD. The little square box next to the Names of the Film, cannot be ticked anymore (?) so I click on the name and press the OK button. "No movie found" is usual (using Amazon.com).

Then suddenly I get in the PVD, two films (see my first enclosed picture) with the same name and the same DVD or Bluray cover !!!
The only difference between the two entries is the URL. One has http://www.imdb.com/title, etc. and the second entry has http://imdb.com/title etc.

Anybody knows what has changed or is happening ???
Many Thanks,
Gear

Support / New plugin imdb.dll v.0.9.8.9 ??
« on: February 01, 2013, 08:12:14 pm »
I just noticed and updated to the new plugin, but don't see any difference in getting the "full" movie information.

Could anybody explain to me in plain English, what the difference from the v.0.9.8.8. is ?

Many thanks,

Support / Imdb Movie script + IMDB problem
« on: December 08, 2012, 07:49:19 pm »
I am using PVD 0.9.9.21 with Win XP Pro SP3, modified lately with the new script of Ivek23, as the IMDB 0.9.8.5 stoped importing (mentioned elsewhere in the forum).

The script works fine for newer movies but faced a problem with an old one. Tried to get in the PVD "Notorious" (1946 film), and I am getting stuck at searching (see attachement 1). The PVD freezes and have to close it down.

After re-opening it, Notorious is there without any info. I fill in the date and try to get the info through the button of the menu. PVD freezes again, with the info (in attachement 2). Force to close it down again and re-open it.

All I get is attachement 3.

Any body can help?

PS. If I enter only "Notorious" it loads the latest film directly, without showing any choice...

Many thanks in advance.

Support / Any trick for entering repeating details?
« on: December 03, 2012, 04:52:41 pm »
I am trying to find some trick about entering the same repeating details in a TV series episodes, such as DVDrip, Language, Subtitles. Instead of entering those details for every episode separately, is there a way to have those details prefixed (as they are all the same for all episodes) after entering the first one?

Any advice would be welcomed.
