[QUOTE="Guzzi, post: 817294, member: 55213"] [b]AW: Re: AW: Re: My Films 5.1 released (19.09.2011) - V5.1.0.1468 (MP 1.2.0)[/b] I had a look in the rest of the setup - and it is always named "DB item" - so I renamed it to that now for consistency. If we change ti to field (ok for me too), we'd have to change it everywhere else too. ALso checked tooltip and it makes purpose imho understandable But I can always add/change that, if there is better suggestions of course. Done - wiki now recommends "Source" field. Yes, it's hard to keep track with all the different uses cases different users do use - and even harder to make that understandable and put it into a nice setup with an interface that is not too much confusing ;-) Fixed typo and added note to tooltip that the parameter is optional and only required, if no full pathes are available in source info. Already tried to make that obvious by not giving that field the yellow color for mandatory fields ;-) - however, for a user, that would not use the source field at all, this fields again would be mandatory to be set. You're right, the tooltip was confusing - updated. Item renamed to "Offline Media Identification Item" - as it's mostly not files (it can though), but media like DVDs BRs, etc. I think "offline" is the keywork, that makes it much clearer... I have no personal preference for that - so please more feedback from users, if it should default to "none". It might take some more time - if you feel you want to play with a developer version (and verify the changes done to your suggestions ;-)) - drop me a PM and I send you a link to current developer version. You can also launch an import from inside MyFilms GUI via global updates - this will perform an AMCupdater import run in the background. All that is of course a question of personal taste and many ppl have different approaches. When using AMCupdater, it imho depends, if you're importing lots of movies or only a few. For only a few, interactive mode is just fine, as you can nicely verify and be sure, the correct one is selected. For importing lots of movies, I would recommend once running a noninteractive import, but let AMCupdater not ask for unsure matches, but also NOT import those movies. After this you can just do another import, that will only have movies that couldn't be matched before, in interactive mode (ask, if no match) - and do selection as you like. In latest AMCupdater version I added cover thumbs to the result list and AKA titles in the title field flyover. correct. Alway good to get feedback - as many things are not obvious for yourself, if you're "too deep inside" ;-) [/QUOTE]
