 How do you work in GOM with multiple subtitles files?

 Hi Ivek23 and Rick, I already thanked you for this but hey thank you again!
 
 I have a slight problem. For some reason, Allrovi script does not gather the rating anymore. I have not changed anything to the preferences, the "additional rating" box is checked. I wonder if there was a change in the last version that caused this?

 

 I think he was just trying to cast his vote for this feature.
 It's a way to show Nostra that several people would like that feature.

 Hi all,

 I know it is possible in PVD to save a path to scan everytime PVD is started, but this is not a solution in my case because my movie folders are in different hard drives of a network computer. Also scanning them takes time and ressources so I really don't want to do this everytime PVD starts.

 I want however to scan them everytime I add movie files to that network computer. And the problem is that going through the "select directory or files" to select these hard drives far away in my network takes a long time. I have to select them one by one, and PVD scans them every time I tick the box next to them. The whole process of selecting them before the actual scan is about 6 minutes if I am fast.

 Hence my idea: Could there be a way in pvd to have these hard drives selected by default in a menu so that I only have to press a button to scan them whenever I need to do so?

 Thanks for listening.

 I can confirm that it never downloaded any image for me either.

 Hi all,
 I am posting this in feature suggestions because I suspect the answer to be "no", but please feel free to delete/move this message if it is possible. And explain to me how please! [Edit: Moved to Support]

 First example:
   _ My movies/Shorts/Series files are all in the same directory (i.e. spread accross several hard drives) and I would like to start grouping the series and shorts into two separate folders called "Series" and "Shorts". I would like to use PVD's help to do this, by applying a filter to "shorts" for example and then move all the corresponding files to a new folder called "Shorts". Of course in the process I would like PVD to automatically change the file paths...
 
Second example:
  _ My friend would like to put a few of my movies onto his USB hard drive. He plugs it in, Select a few movies in (the Grid maybe?) PVD and then copy (not move) the movies files into his Hard drive.

I know I can do the "open containing folder" but it is one video at a time, right?

Thanks!

 

 Oh OK I did not realise Win7 had a "programdata" folder, unlike XP that has "application data", so I could not find the mediaportal data file.
 
 I have just tested on a small sample, and it look like it just flawlessly worked.
 I have now to explore mediaportal because I am worried that I will be disappointed (like I was by xbmc) by the lack of powerful searching capabilities such as the ones found on PVD.

 I am not interested in every single actor and like you said the movie collection is too big to have all actors imported, so I do just that:
 

I understand this might be simply clicking on people in Movie view if and when you're interested in them. This will make the one selected visible, and switch you to People view where it would only take a few seconds (hopefully) to download their information. In other words, they could be added on an "as needed" basis

 Hi all,

 I searched the forum for that suggestion and could not find it. Please delete that message if it was already proposed.
 In my process of adding movies into pvd, I am sometimes in need of a feature that could allow me to right-click a video file and select say "Add as a PVD entry".
 This would then generate a movie entry in PVD where the file path would automatically be filled.
 I guess the title also could be generated from the file name (or not).
 I guess in the case of 2 CD's movies, two files could be selected before right-clicking...?

 Thanks for listening.
