First off, I want to say what an excellent program this is. I have a question about Exporting. I have the option selected to use the Movie Title as the file name, however it always exports using lower case. Is there a way to preserve the case?

My problem is that I am using this on a linux Web Server. It programmatically links to the details pages based on the Movie Title, so I have to manually rename the files after export to restore the original case.

Thanks,

I do not remember what is done exactly, but it is indeed possible that I forced the names to lowercase.
Your question concerns the HTML export? Why not use the "tag" containing the name of the detail page rather than the title?
I was planning to add options to clean the export names (e.g. remove accents or at least spaces and other special characters) but I do not know when I will do that, as it is not so simple (accents depend on Windows locale settings for example).
There are already some characters replaced/removed so the title name does not always match the file name: " ? / etc. are forbidden in file names.

Yes, this is regarding the HTML Export, sorry I should have been more clear. I am doing Individual File Exports, but the only options I have are:

- Exported filename + Movie Number
- Catalog name + Movie Number
- Movie Title

I don't see the option you are referring to. I am using ver. 3.5.0, are there different options in the Beta perhaps?

Well, that "option" is actually one of the fields available for the "full" file export (i.e. the other page than "individual" in the export window), which can be used to make a list of the titles + link to individual pages.
But if you use something else to make the general list page, I suppose that it would not help you?

I thank you for your support. I have one last quick question and if you can't do it then I understand. I donwloaded the source, but I do not have Delphi to compile it. I have made the necessary change, is there any way you could just compile it for me with the update file.

If not, I completely understand. I simply removed the LowerCase functions from the export.pas file. It is available here:

Again, nice work on an excellent program

ok here is it:

but I'd like to know why exactly you need that, as you have the title+filenames list using the "full" template page.

Thank you so much...And to answer your question, I am using wizd media server, with my I-O Data Network DVD Player. Not sure if you are familiar with wizd - http://wizd.sourceforge.net/.

It is basically just a website, with special instructions that the player understands. I am using your program to created the DVD Details page.
You can view the site here: http://69.244.143.131:8000 when you click on the movie name, the details page I export from your program is included in an IFRAME as <IFRAME src=<DVD NAME>.htm>

That is where i call the details page and wizd is case sensitive.

Nice system
