Why lenght of 100 min comes before lenght of 99 min ?
It seems that when Movie manager read codec it should put "099" and not "99" ?
Is there an automatic way to correct all the field ?
Thanks |

You only can paste "99" by "099" manually by "Replace in ..." function.
Automatic add a leading zero: that's unfortunately not possible as Length is a text field. Some sides provide the length as 1:32 or something similar. |
In order to achieve what is possible, you have to try the impossible over and over again.

It's not a good way, because there are a lot of different lenght to correct "60", "61" ...."70"......."80" and so on.
It should be sufficient a function that add a "0" to lenght field with a value less than 100. |

| Maybe someone else knows a solution. Otherwise I could make an external tool to reformat the length to a special format. |

I try edit multiple but it does'nt works (you put 099 intead of 99, but when you save the field remain 99)
It works only if you open single edit and manual chage 99 with 099.
It's not possible to use replace in all fields because it could change other 99 (file size, resoluzione, title and so on) |

Yes, I have seen that "replace in length" doesn't exist.
At the weekend I will try to nake a simple prog that converts the first number in field Length to 000-format.
Would be nice if someone could post the regex for these conversions as I'm not really confidenced with that...
I just have downloaded the RegExp for Delphi from: http://regexpstudio.com/TRegExpr/TRegExpr.html |

| Sorry if this sounds stupid, but you also need to take in account single digit durations, for shorts films, animations etc. Is should also be able to replace selected files, otherwise we'll end up with numbers like 0099 or 0123. |

Well, I have begun this morning with that tool.
For now you can expand all lengths to triple-digit. In addition you can edit single data entries, paste text in all entries and
delete ":seconds" expressions.
I hope that I can share it for testing after lunch. |

| It works like a breeze, thank you. Any chance of automating the procedure inside XMM, so that all new entries are corrected accordingly? |

| Entries corrected manually inside XMM (with zeroes added by hand) sort in a different order. It seems we have to patch the file with your app every now and then... |

Great job, it's perfect.
It should be integrated in XMM
Thank you |

Glad that it fits your wishes :)
And yes, Ale should integrate the function (not the tool) into XMM. Best with an option to expand the length to 3 or 4 digits. |

Great, Ale :)
But think of entries like "092:01 Min. (088:41 Min. o.A.)". Not all sites return only the minute values as you can see there are some with/without ending credits and a few that show min and secs. |

| Another problem I experience with the length is that with alot of my movies not only the length of the movie is downloaded from imdb but also the countru like "usa: 90" Is there a solution so only the numbers will be added in the length? |
