So i've decided that i want to specify what the original source of the video is (dvd, hddvd, hdtv ect.).

Is there a way that you guys know of that i can select a bunch of files and change the "source" field of them all at once?

Select the movies to change, then press Shift+F6 or go to Tools -> Scripting.
Either use the script "update fields" or manually create a simple script by clicking "Editor" then click the "new" icon of the toolbar. Enter for example the following:

Code: Select all

program NewScript;
begin
  SetField(fieldSource, 'dvd');
end.
to set to the movies dvd in source field. Field names are described in the help file. The modified movies depend what is selected as option for "movies to include" (bottom right of the "scripts" tab, "Selected" or "All")
