[QUOTE="OrionHall, post: 195995, member: 56502"] Hi All, Just a quick update. I've been spending some time improving the app and it's finally getting there. One of the big annoyances for me was the app seeming to hang when scanning some slightly-problematic files. Same goes if it's simply scanning a lot of files. I wanted to be able to cancel the import if needed, and display a progress bar so you can see it's still working. Apparently this required multithreading, so I've re-written the import to run on a separate thread. Unfortunately that completely broke the command line option :wtf: Having read up on threading a bit more I can see why; I just haven't found an easy fix yet (short of duplicating all the import code without the threading, but that seems like terrible programming practice!) On the bright side I've improved quite a few areas now and hope to get a new release out soon. For users who store DVD copies (i.e. the actual .vob files) the app can now handle these, and assumes the folder containing the DVD image is named after the film. Possibly not suitable for everyone but I'm open to suggestions here. Anyway, suggesions welcome, and watch this space for the whizzy new version! Cheers, OrionHall. [/QUOTE]
