| There seems to be a problem in Cover manager. When I select a cover and then try and shift/move it to the left it seems to replace the cover that was in that place. Hard to explain, but I had 4 covers, I tried to move the 3rd one in the list to the first position and ended up with 5 copies all of the same cover and lost the others that were originally in the list.... |

the cover manager is the buggiest part of xmm. it fails in random situations:
1. import data & cover from imdb, when finished the data is there, the cover is gone.
2. while importing data&cover, in the main screen appears the first cover in the cover folder (in my case 1-ichi).
3. many (or all of the?) new imported covers are saved twice: in the proper way (id-name) and correlative to the cover shown in point 2 (i-ichi_##).
4. sometimes when importing a cover directly, xmm refuses to show the imported picture; cover count is 0. but if you look the cover folder, all the covers are there, but they aren't shown. FIX: delete manually all cover of the movie, then try again.
5. sometimes the "delete all" button doesn't delete anything.
that's all i can remember right now.
bye.
ps. i'd really like a database converting tool 4.x <-> 5.x

Hi Racto,
I am trying to fix this part of XMM, but I receive the errors in a random way, so I cannot find exactly the problem.
Thank you!

Hi everybody,
I don't know whether the problem is a bug or me. But i couldn't find any solution so i am writing here.
I have 976 film data and try to add 20. Before this i create a new database and transfer all data from old one(example.mdb) to the new. Everything is good. I read data from CD and get data from internet with IMDB script. When i finish importing data i see that the new ones have no picture except the first one. The first one have all the pictures inside and the cover names becomes "%Movie%-%title%. I delete all the pictures and try to insert picture manually. Whatever i do, all pictures are inserted into the first movie of the new twenty films.
What can i do or what am i doing wrong? If you can help me i will be so glad. Thanks.

Hi Hgurami,
I don't know exactly waht to say, your problem is really strange.
Please make a test for me : create a new database, add some movies and import informations from internet. I need to know if you have this problem also with a new database or not.
Thank you
Alessio

Hi Alessio,
As you say i create a new database and i add 3 movies
Sahara,
Lucky Number Slevin and
Rumor Has It...
After that i import data from internet using IMDB script. As i said before all data came but cover data is inserted to the first movie "Sahara"
I tried to put screen preview, i hope you can see it the other two movies have no cover.

I forgot to say. The covers are saved to database cover directory as
%MOVİEID%-%TİTLE%
%MOVİEID%-%TİTLE%_1
%MOVİEID%-%TİTLE%_2
%MOVİEID%-%TİTLE%_3

Hi !
Try the following ,it worked by me!
Cut the Covers from the database and put them into Your Documents, then rename them ( I just deleted the number in front of the cover).After that open Cover manager and ad the new covers to your movie .It is not a wery fast way to put Your covers to the movie but it is a solution until Alesio find out what the problem is !
Sorry for My bad English  ! quote:

Hi hgurami
I have just imported 30 movies by selecting them all and my XMM 5.2.8.0 added all information (including covers) just great.Maybe it will be faster for You to import all your movies (if your hawe not a werry large collection) again from the Internet ? I think with this way You will be much faster! Try it first with more than 3 movies (10 or more).
Hope this was helpful ! |

Hello Alessio,
Any chance we could get the cover manager problem fixed. I have totally screwed up my cover collections because of all the problems with it. You keep fixing the little problems, how about fixing this major problem :) PLEASE!!! This problem has been going on long enough!! |

Hi,
I have make several tests this morning on this problem but I cannot find any bug.
I have try to move pictures, delete all, bring it in first position, and this for much movies.
I have try also to import pictures for a new movie and immediatly open the cover manager to move it, again all seem to work correctly.
Have you notice a particular situation when bugs comes out?
Thank you!
Alessio |

| I notice it after I import the movie. I usually use the IMDB script to get the movie info and then run the DVDEMPIRE script to get the covers. Then I go into cover manager and it just gets crazy from there. If I try to move any covers left/right it just seems to overlay the covers and I end up with 3 or 4 copies of the same cover. |

Hi,
Please open the configuration window and let me know the value of "mask value".

%MovieID%-%Title%
