[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 573733, member: 18896"] I was trying to make an easy single explanation then having to explain all the differences. Running the 'before' enabled as you said will work in my example, and it indeed would have worked without. But if a beginner then tries to go a little bit more advanced and needs to solve the actual parsing to work correctly, then they might forget to enable the 'before' option. The example was picked to explain what happens easier, I could have gone with a complex example, but then beginners might not have understood the process. I would have had to make a different screenshot for tip #2 then. Aside from a potential difference in processing speed, I can't actually imagine a scenario in which you specifically have to run it 'after' the parsing expressions are finished. If it was just me, they could remove that checkbox option all together and always run it before. I'm sure there is an exception, but I wouldn't be able to tell you one, do you know of any? The whole reason for my explanation was to avoid having to do any manual corrections at all. I've actually missed a few shows, because they automatically popped on the GUI confirmation dialog for my wife, and since default action is to 'skip/ignore', guess which one she picked :bitch: PS: I just woke up, so don't take my reply as defensive over how I did things. But it is my experience that it is best to not explain too many options, or the beginner is still left confused. [/QUOTE]
