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.

the field in which the content should be copied is media label. but there is no media label in the second window.

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).
