Make justification configurable

Right/left justification for the display of each field is a fixed parameter of the field. Please make this a configurable parameter.

Show a count of matches when searching

When you use the search bar *Pedia should show a count of matches.

Re: Pedia cover recommended quality ? (scan)

Bear in mind that what a Pedia saves to disk is not what you drag to the picture window. It re-encodes the image, which loses quality. This cannot be turned off. If you want to preserve the original image you have to copy it directly to the Covers folder, replacing the image the Pedia saved.

Re: Refresh iTunes Tracks isn't working anymore

Thank you. I'll take a look as they should get refreshed when you press OK, as well as with the menu command. Were you able to reproduce the problem? I've noticed that not only are new albums not getting refreshed, CDpedia is missing (in the sense that the iTunes data is missing) entire albums that...

Right justification of displayed columns

In my view of a Smart Collection I have "Series #". While the data in this field is always numeric, it is left-justified when displayed by BookPedia. I would like to make this column (or indeed any column I choose) right-justified so the numbers line up nicely.

Allow "ignore articles" to apply to more fields

In DVDpedia for example, ignore articles applies to "Title" but not "Studio", so "The Criterion Collection" gets sorted under "T" rather than the desired "C".

Re: Mass text substitution on fields

The function "datetime" does not work, as SQL date is based of January 1st 1970, and the Mac date is based from January 1st 2001. So your 30 years behind, you could add 30 years worth of seconds (978328800). That doesn't give you the number range you're showing (563...). It's not clear ho...

Re: Mass text substitution on fields

I did "ZDATEEDITED = datetime('now')". Oddly, syncing PocketPedia a second time repeated itself rather than deciding there was nothing to do. Are you storing timestamps as local time rather than UTC? Or is there something wonky with PocketPedia?

Thanks. I tried that and it worked, but PocketPedia won't sync the records whose fields were altered.

Mass text substitution on fields

For example, edit the url field of all selected items and replace
http://www.amazon.com
with
https://www.amazon.com

Preferably, with optional regex support for more sophisticated substitutions.

Re: 5.6.1 does not sync with IOS app

The problem here is more likely an iOS bug, though I suppose it could be a Pocketpedia bug. What's appears to be happening is if your iOS device disconnects from a WiFi network because you left its range and automatically reconnects later (such as, for example, if you left for work in the morning an...

DVDpedia 5.6.1 popup typo

If you try to delete multiple items in your library you'll get a popup saying you're about to delete "7 books" (or whatever the number is). Books? "Movies" or "discs" would be more appropriate. The other Pedias probably have the same issue.
