Well I was able to write some code to do it inside HTTPJolie. That makes it possible to add to any of GSyren's tools
Well, none of my current tools can actually run custom HTTPJolie commands directly. However, in order to be able to refresh the online profile list unattended, I wrote a very small program that just runs that refresh command. This program can be launched from DvdpScheduler (or possible some other scheduler), but the catch is that this has to be done while the PC is logged in.
I use this program myself to download the full list each night, but I'm not sure if anyone else is interested in it.
If anyone is interested, just give me a shout. | Posted: Topic Replies: 87, Topic Views: 27651 |

File/Backup Database will create a backup file that contains everything, including cover scans.
Store that file on a Cloud drive, an external hard drive, a USB stick or something similar. You can store it on a secondary internal drive on your PC, but that means that if you have a crash and need to restore on a different PC, you'll need to remove that disk and connect it to your new PC. So some kind of external media is best.
And then when needed you can use File/Restore database to restore everything from that backup file. And as a plus, you're not depending on Invelos' site being accessible when you need to restore.
You should, of course, keep your backup reasonably up-to-date. | Posted: Topic Replies: 4, Topic Views: 6562 |

Local images are not uploaded to your online collection. The online collection is not suitable as a primary backup if you have custom images. What you should do is to use the backup function in DVD Profiler, and keep that backup on a different media than your Profiler database, i.e. not on the same disc in case of a disc crash. Cloud storage like OneDrive or Google Drive is perfect for this.
The online collection only displays the images that are part of Invelos' online database. Storing all the images from all users would require enormous disk space, and most of those images would be the same as Invelos' images anyway. | Posted: Topic Replies: 4, Topic Views: 6562 |

There are a lot of newer titles not showing up now FALL GUY, NARC, MUTE WITNESS, GODZILLA X KING KONG, LA FEMME NIKITA are just a few. I have tried adding them as both "name" and "UPC" and none of these come up.
In the case of Godzilla x King Kong it is probably because the title is actually Godzilla x Kong. As for the other titles, the database is user built, so probably nobody has contributed a profile. If you own any of these titles, why not do a good deed any contribute them yourself? | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 9274 |

If you are interested in automating this, have a look at the second FAQ...
The drawback is that you have to restart Profiler. | Posted: Topic Replies: 87, Topic Views: 27651 |

| Yeah, but you need to combine the command with Ctrl-down, and I don't see how you can do that through HTTPJolie. But maybe I'm missing something? | Posted: Topic Replies: 87, Topic Views: 27651 |

It might be worth a try for someone who is really miffed at having to wait for that download.
For the record: I have absolutely no problem waiting for a minute while refreshing the online profile list, I'm not craving for an automated process. I merely noted that if a lot of us are downloading those files several times a week, that causes unnecessary traffic to the server. That alone could have been a reason for Ken to fix it. But alas...
Yeah, I got that. I just wanted to point out to anyone interested (if any) that it might be technically possible.
If anyone is actually interested, give me a shout and I can test it. | Posted: Topic Replies: 87, Topic Views: 27651 |

I am curious as an experiment. Could you provide the Profile ID(UPC.Locality). We have tools that access the online database internally. It would be interesting if those tools can see pending profiles.
Gunnar if you want to experiment, I think there are a couple of internal commands that I could add to HTTPJolie if the existing ones don't do it.
My experience from testing TurboCLT indicates that the current commands do not see pending profiles.
Might be interesting to see if it can be done. | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 9274 |

There are already tools by GSyren that might be able to help. For example, with his tools, you could schedule the refresh overnight or on whatever schedule you choose. Then you would not have to wait when you are ready to work.
Yeah, I guess it might be possible to cobble together some AutoItX commands that would trigger "Online / Refresh Online Profile List" while simulating Ctrl down, and schedule that from DvdpScheduler. It's not something that I have tried, and the drawback with DvdpScheduler is that you have to keep your PC logged in. There is no way for any program to control DVD Profiler if you're not logged in.
It might be worth a try for someone who is really miffed at having to wait for that download. No guarantee that it will work, though.
When experimenting with sending commands through AutoItX it might be wise to have a recent backup of you database, just in case. Actually, it's a good idea to always have a recent backup. Better safe than sorry. | Posted: Topic Replies: 87, Topic Views: 27651 |
