Mass Importing

Post by Incubus »

Do u think that it would be a possbility to make it so u can add an entry, then grab a host of files, say 20-50 and drop in, and have the prog auto add entry for each one, instead of add, drag and drop one, add , drag and drop another???

it would be a real help when adding individual eps of series into the database, but it might cause probs with being able to drap and drop a 2part movie in ...

maybe 2 settings, 1 normal, and one for mass adding,

It is one of the planned features for a future version, mass-adding files.
Series support should be added, but it is quite less easy unfortunately, since it requires heavier changes in the program to handle series + their episodes.

well, i agree, series support would be hard to do that way, i did make a workaround to show it series by series though

all i do is add all eps in ex Transformers Beast Wars - 1x02 - Beast Wars Part 2
then in the translated title section I put Transformers Beast Wars in each entry
then if i group by translated title i get a nice dropdown view of each series and eps

another possible thing to add might be the ability to change the names on fields in the program

Ex change Category to Production Studio

also, would it be hard to make the year flippable between a 4 place year and a 8 place actual date

either have 1998 or 08/22/1984 ????? would be nice to people who use prog for series as well

To change the name of the fields you can simply modify one of the translation file ;)
