2. If adding movies is finished from my network drives, and I want to update the just added movies, it reverts automatic to "import actors" Now there are some 30.000 (..) actors in the database, it takes even with our SSD drives 3-5 minutes to load. Not too much of a problem, but is incorrect. We close down XMM and restart it, than it works correct and it will update movies once selected.
3. If we add movies then it does not check if any movies were deleted from the source< (disk) or destination (database)or vice versa. Suggest instead of adding movies, we should use a kind of "synchronize source/destination" script. After all, if somebody dies or is born the taxman will sinc his files too. He does not add only..
4. The database gets larger and larger. The database pack command will help sometimes but only recovers lost diskspace due to deleted files. Instead a database could be zipped or rarred and unzipped or unrarred with a kind of XXM compression/decompression type of deal sitting in memory.
Point 3 was earlier suggested, but some guroes (not Alesio)indicated that that was not necessary (...), and there was an option in XMM to search for missing files would do. Of course they were wrong, and the existing options can work fine if the database contains a couple of files. If there are large databases, things are different.
5. Some type of script could be made to get missing IMDB covers from Google images. The search string is "movie-moviename-year". Google images is ALWAYS Bingo For missing covers!
Thatīs all for today.

Posted - 15 Jan 2012 : 21:19:59 To 1: Seems as if the website has changed the layout. Which script did you use? To 2 and 3: I don't use that function(s) to 4: That's right after raring a 100 mb database the file is less than 30 mb. BUT: someone who has such a great amount of movies on harddisks should have enough space for an uncompressed database - in my opinion. To 5: There is already existing a script for google images.
