[QUOTE="gabbe, post: 10192, member: 10337"] I like the idea with a file for every movie. Look at GAM, it use separates files, and is much faster than MP. Saves both the info file and the picture. In the info-file You should find: 1/ filename (s) for movie (> 1 file -> easy stacking) 2/ picture name 3/ disk number (if movie file don't exists -> offline movie) 4/ normal imdb info advantages: 1/ Can have info for movies that don't exists in imdb (I have many of them) 2/ Info is easy editable for normal users 3/ Easy to change picture 4/ No need to remake everything in "every" MP-update 5/ Can copy info/picture together with movie on DVD/CD 6/ Easy to have "off-line" movies. Just delete movie and left picture and info. disadvantage: ? , can't see any Don't say that everything is editable in MP's database now. It maybe is but I have tried with sqlite. And that was NOT easy. It was more like impossible. I did manage to change the picturename but after next update all was gone :-( regards gabbe [/QUOTE]
