I've only noticed this now but it seems that the genre/subgenre categories are all mixed up. I've tried to export my list to website and the result was this 
Is there a way to properly get Genre separeted from subgenres? |

OK
If we take your first post, first line of the export GENRE. You have movies that have the genre box ticked with
ACTION
ACTION & ADVENTURE
ACTION & ADVENTURE & COMEDY & FAMILY & SIFI
etc etc so if that's what you want, then leave them, but if you need to tidy them up then open the database, I'm using XMM8.0.6.6
Go to view tab at the top and in the SHOW/HIDE PANELS show treeview
Right click inside the treeview and choose options
Tick the show on GENRE/SUBGENRE and OK to close the options
Click the + next to GENRE in the treeview to open up all your genre's
click action and the grid view will show all your movies with the action genre in the grid view
click inside the grid to highlight the top movie
press CTRL+A on keyboard to highlight all the movies
Right click any movie in the grid and choose EDIT MULTIPLE
There should be no ticks in the GENRE or SUBGENRE boxes so if you tick for example - ACTION under GENRE and do no tick any other boxes, then OK it will edit all the movies in the grid and reduce the genre to ACTION only.
So as you can imagine, it's very quick and easy to edit multiple films in a collection
I tend to have only 1 GENRE ticked and maybe only 1 SUBGENRE but then thats my choice |

Even using the treeview filters seems ok.
I don't think you need to go through re-running scripts.
I don't get what you mean. Could you be more detailed please? |

That would not be viable for 5300 movies... Any way to do it right with IMDB(Fastest) Script? |

It seems like you have many movies with multiple genre boxes ticked. This is how it is imported through the script you have used.
I usually choose not to import the genre and just tick what I need when manually tidying up. Just run through your films and untick all the unnecessary genres and I think you'll find the exported web pages genre list will be considerably smaller and make more sense |
