Hi,

Try the "Update Fields (FR-US).ifs" script, if you not already have it, it's available here
(Place this script in your AMC script directory.)

Little tutorial :
- Select your movies from the AMC list.
- Then start the "Update Fields (FR-US)" script.
- Choose "delete a field" in the list.
- Then choose "category" in the list.
- Answer "yes" to the next question.
- And finally enter your value.

Hope this help

Hi,

Yes, the same as above, and you choose "copy field1 in field2" in the first list when you start the script.

I think you use AMC 3.5.1.
You can download AMC 4.1.0 [BETA] and run script UpdateField (it has been updated for this new version and takes into account all fields).
