Mass import tool - i.e. via .csv file (movie names entered in csv files, so there will be less work with each movie)

I would like for the IMDB Crew downloader to pick up additional categories automatically, particularly editor, cinematographer, music, and writers. Thanks.

Hi, been using this for the past few days and it's a fantastic product that does exactly what I need, well done developers.

That said, I would like to echo the request on page one



If it could work like an iTunes for movies with the load/rip/eject process as automated as possible it would be great. It's proably too late for me now as I've worked through half my collection. Unless.... there is an option for this and I've somehow missed it.

Thanks


EDIT:

Further to the above, I use the Keyboard software Microsoft supply with their keyboards and it has a macro function, so I was able to record a series of keystrokes that more or less automates the process (and even cancels the AnyDVD* message). It's a bit of a fiddle, and you still need to press the button to trigger the macro but it might prove a useable work around in the short term.

_{* Installing and/or using AnyDVD is illegal in some countries. Users are themselves responsible for complying with local law when installing and using AnyDVD.}

Ability to name disc sides... like for fullscreen\widescreen discs

Not correct - you can name discs, not disc sides.

I would like the ability to have an easter egg section for each movie in which we can list the different easter eggs a DVD may have.

Also it would be good to have a check box for 'This title has no director'.

I have ran into several DVDs that I own that done have a director. But all have producers.

The ability to import my existing folders/data without destroying the data and images I've created, only overwriting if I give it specific permission to do so.

Sadly, I can't use the software as-is, as it whacked about 200 carefully archived disks with the data from the webservice, about 1/3 of which is incorrect, misidentifying my UK TV boxset disks and overwriting the existing information (including my lovely cover scans! Nooo!!!) without even asking. When it said "import" I thought it meant "import the information that's there" rather than "scan what's there but overwrite with arbitrary data from the internet, destroying my own data".

I've now got to drag the original disks back out of storage and scan covers again, correctly identify disk numbers, etc. etc. I'm most disappointed. It is going to take me hours. Thank goodness it only did one folder.

I'm going to be cleaning up this thread a bunch and asking Brian to comment on the requests. I finally have a break from law school! :)

Basic rules: Don't be annoying, don't be obnoxious, and don't post crap, and we will all get along fine. :)

More advanced filtering/search.

In particular it would be useful to filter which titles have local trailers and which titles do not have local trailers.

If that happens, I can envision it would come with some limitations. Anything requiring being able to read from a disc. Disc ID, chapter editing, TV episode mapping, etc.
