Many thanks Conor. Your solution sounds excellent!

This maybe not perhaps a bug, but it is certainly not correct. I have a linked .mkv file in DVDPedia and when I click the play button in full-screen, I get the error message "application cannot be found." VLC is the correct application and I have had some problems with it, so it did not su...

I have in my DVD collection many films that are not American. However, in DVDPedia, they are always renamed to what IMDB calls them. Very often the two names are very different and difficult for me to remember since I know the original name better. I have an account on IMDB and can say in the prefer...

In DVDPedia, I use the "starring" tag to make a field in the database so that I can search for films with certain actors. When Bob Hoskins passed away this week, I checked which of his films I had. To my surprise (because I thought I had a rather large film collection), I didn't have 'The ...

Thanks Nora. It looks like it worked.

Thanks Conor. I'll read your message a few more times to understand it all, and then do what you describe. It sounds like it should work.

Thank you for the clarification. The search only picks up the critics average and not the user score. This information is not provided by IMDb. You would need to build a search plugin for Metacritic directly in order to gather all that information. I'm not quite sure I understand what you wrote. IM...

Thanks for your helpful reply. Unfortunately, since the field is not used, it does not show in the multi-edit window. I tried to give it a name in preferences, but it still does not show.

In DVDPedia, I used a custom field to enter data. Then, in one of the updates, Conor added the same field so that I no longer needed the custom field. I am now using the custom field again to get different data, but I have found that the old data is still there, even though the field name is differe...

The problem is actually, that the "valuation" field at IMDB uses votes by users (generally, not very useful to me) AND votes by "metacritics", when they are available. This means that I need to have votes by users (because many films have no votes from Metacritic) and also votes ...

Thanks for the help. I am however a bit confused. There are two fields when there is a Metacritic score: Metacritic and Metascore. Metascore shows a number like this: xx/100. However, I named the field Metacritic and I am not sure what it is downloading. I believe the Metacritic field displays the n...

Thanks for the help, Rigido.

I would appreciate it DVDPedia downloaded the film's Metascore (when present) in place of the user ratings. If no Metascore was available, then the user rating will have to do.

Using DVDPedia for the first time in several weeks this morning, I got some very strange responses from IMDB. The genre tags now include code. The ratings and plot summaries are not downloaded. Am I the only one with these problems or have other people seen this as well?

Thanks for the help, Conor. I did what you suggested, but first that showed that there is another problem. I found there are two DVDPedia folders in the Shared folder. One is at the root level and the other one is in Library. I cleaned the one at root level, but that did not fix the problem. I then ...
