[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 1047838, member: 27204"] I agree providing localized persons info via grabbers would not only meet your needs but probably many more users, and is easier to maintain/update between releases. BUT maybe we can consider a way that allows those grabbers to be used via AMCU also, so you could update your entire database using them? I know that is more complicated than it sounds, since MF does not have persons db/schema, whereas images just have to be added to the persons images folder, but I added [URL='http://code.google.com/p/my-films/issues/detail?id=371']Issue 371: Add support for localized Persons info (grabbers)[/URL] to Tracker anyways. :P Is there any reason we cannot add more localized grabbers now? AFAIK they will display when you select Updates > Get Internet Info from Persons View context menu. I realize that is not 'full integration' (hence the issue ;)) since I don't think they would apply when updating automatically in Details View, or Updating Info for all related persons. But, while I was updating all the grabbers recently, I noticed many provide localized persons data, though we don't currently grab that. In theory I could probably create several localized persons grabbers, but is that the best solution? Won't we just end up with a ton more grabbers that require endless updating? And based on the lack of reports about how many were broken, I wonder if most users are grabbing data via their movie catalog/manager? You mean if/when 'real life' decides to give you a break for a change? ;) I certainly hope you get a break for the holiday season, and don't plan to spend it all working on MyFilms! [/QUOTE]
