I use IMDB+ extensively and nowadays it is just about perfect for my setup. I recently switched to "update all fields" on refresh, and really like it as it keeps my DB fields in sync with IMDB changes as they happen. All my edits happen in custom xml override file (and there are not that many), so these edits are not affected by refresh. However, there is a usecase that I can't support using existing plugin - different versions of the same movie. An example would be 2D and 3D versions of the same movie - say Ice.Age.mkv and Ice.Age.3D.mkv, and previously I manually mapped them to Ice Age 2D and Ice Age 3D. Both naturally correspond to the same tt-id, so I can't use xml override as it is - and so these edits are lost.
It would be great if in addition to tt-id i would be possible (optionally) to differentiate on filename / path (maybe even with regexps for flexibility - might be an overkill, simple substring will suffice):
<rename id="tt1080016" file="Ice.Age.mkv" title="Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs 2D" />
<rename id="tt1080016" file=".*3D.*" title="Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs 3D" />
This might be applicable for other cases - for instance Theatrical vs Director's Cut. Most people will just keep Director's Cut, but sometimes the two are quite different (see e.g. The Butterfly Effect)
in advance!
