Simple script for replacing a specific field...
Posted: 2008-07-23 12:17:54
Hi,
I am in need of a script to adjust a specific field throughout my whole movie database.
I have 758 movies in my database. 351 of those movies have the "Media Type" field set to MKV.
I need the MKV string changed into x264 720p.
Doing this manually by hand will take me a while and I assume it should be fairly easy to write a quick script to achieve this.
I've been reading the documentation and the forums but simply put, I'm a total noob at this and haven't a clue where to start.
I assume the script would have to look something like this:
However this replaces the Media Type field to x264 720p for every single movie in the database. I assume I would need to include some if statements, somewhere.
Could someone point me in the right direction or write a quick script to do just this?
Thank you very much.

LaMa
