Has this program mass importing?

i had to import films once a time writing the film name each time.

Thanks

Depends of where you want to take the names, you must have movie name somewhere if you do not want to retype them...

Well
When i got this excellent program i type the film name once a time for each film. For importing i select all films and Click import batch but program ask me for film name so i have to retype them (and the name is stored yet!!) . But it isnt a big problem

Another question:
I have a .txt file with 300 films with a no alphabetical order (the number one is my first film a got, number two the second.... etc) . When i import that .txt (only film names) for your program it is in a different order ! (random?)
Do you understand me ? Its important for me because i have stored my films in that order . I can change film number one to one in your program
but .... if i can import in the same order ...

Thanks a lot and sorry for my English

You can bypass the title input window by editing the script
e.g. instead of just leave this: For the .txt import, that's quite strange that they are not in the same order... can you post a small part of this file if it is possible to reproduce this problem with this small part (e.g. 10 first lines of the file)

Quite strange, it seems to be a bug in the Sort function of Delphi. Since no number is importer, all movies have number "0". Before assigning new numbers the list is sorted. Since all movies have the same number, they should keep their order.
There is a way to keep the order : put numbers in the list.
You can do that easily with Excel (for example).
Import the txt file, insert a column, put numbers (with the "serie" fill thing it takes one second to do it), then save as to CSV, and import in AMC, using both Number and Title columns.

now txt import is ok but this code doesnt work:
you says AnalyzePage('http://us.imdb.com/Tsearch?title='+UrlEncode(MovieName));

but if i have selected for example ten films it doesnt works
If i bypass title input window ....what is the "movieName" valor ?
this variable could be updated for each film ...

    if Input('IMDb Import', 'Enter the title of the movie:', MovieName) then
    begin

    end;

just leave this:

Code: Select all

 
      AnalyzePage('http://us.imdb.com/Tsearch?title='+UrlEncode(MovieName));
